The stakes are high, with Hyrule Castle crumbling away into dust as red streaks of energy bubble and burst into the landscape. I’m not even sure if Ganon is the one talking in the trailer’s opening seconds, convinced <a href="https://Zeldatearsofthekingdomfans.com/articles/discovering-tears-of-the-kingdom-easter-eggs-in-donkey-kong-bananza.html">Nintendo Switch Platformer</a> is throwing out a red herring as the previous calamity prepares to play a far more pivotal role in the upcoming story.<br><br> <br>What elevates this tattoo even higher are the small details. The heads of each of the four bosses in Majora’s Mask surround the clock face, echoing the tribal design of Skull Kid. These bosses seem to be emanating clouds of steam that rise up and envelop the moon. Lastly, the sketch of Tatl at the bottom implies that she is going to be added to the tattoo at a later date as a border to the entire image (by @chronicink on Twitt<br><br>Our heroes spent so long saving Hyrule only to plunge it into turmoil a second time, and their relationship will soon be tested through tough decisions and sacrifices we are yet to see unfold. Heavy is the head that wears the crown, and the limbs forced to adopt ancient powers to overcome unknown evil. The hopeful melancholy this land boasted in previous years has been torn away, replaced by an intense apocalyptic veneer that it will likely be our duty to wipe away. Zelda is a damsel in distress no more, and Link is no longer an untouchable hero who can hold the entire world on his shoulders. Tears of the Kingdom must confront these changing circumstances, and judging from everything we’ve seen, it likely will.<br><br> <br>This final tattoo is a tableau of the darker elements from practically every 3D Zelda game . It’s impressive how the colors and shapes come together in a cohesive way despite the differing aesthetics of each game. The roundness of Majora’s Mask ’s moon, for example, is echoed by the round cogs of the Gate of Time from Skyward Sword . The blue from the Gate of Time is then copied by the Deku Baba design from Ocarina of Time (by @itsjustbeebe on Instagr<br><br> <br>It only makes sense: with Master Sword being broken, this could give the weapon some use prior to being repaired. We're hoping this means the Master Sword is also eligible for combinations, and we can't wait to see what the Flameblade, Royal Broadsword, and other powerful weapons will form when combined with the legendary bl<br><br> <br>Spirits have always played a big role in the lore of the Zelda series, and in Breath of the Wild, similar floating orbs of energy can be seen hovering around the various deceased characters you meet, such as King Rhoam.

Zelda ’s artwork has always suited the types of stylized designs that look great in tattoo format, making it one of the best games to translate into this form of artwork. Even better, each game has its own unique aesthetic and motifs, giving fans a way to celebrate their favorite entry in the series proudly.There seems to be a strong divide between the type of Zelda tattoo fans want. Some fans have a punk edge and lean towards darker games such as Majora’s Mask and Twilight Princess . Others enjoy the more wholesome aspects of Zelda , and so prefer the bright colors and symbols of Ocarina of Time and The Wind Waker . The tattoos shown cover the full spectrum of Zelda fans’ tastes.
