Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom - 10 Fears Redditors Have About The Game

<br>With less than a month before the release of Tears of the Kingdom , more news on the game's story and characters is a welcome hype booster, especially with much of its pre-release promotional cycle having been especially secretive and vague. While some characters, like Yunobo or Impa, are conspicuous by their absence in the game's final trailer, there's still likely a huge amount of _The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom _ that will remain a secret until the game's lau<br><br> <br>The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom _ is the highly anticipated sequel to _Breath of the Wild , and as such is bringing new features to its predecessor's open-world gameplay, including an ability that will let players combine their arrows with a variety of items. Breath of the Wild introduced elements that allowed for plenty of customization, letting players be creative in the way they approached the game. Now, it looks like Tears of the Kingdom is taking the free-form aspect even furt<br><br> <br>Shadow of the Colossus may not be a completely open-ended game like BOTW and TOTK , but it does put emphasis on atmosphere and exploration. The game is structured in 16 ordered cycles: in each one, players must locate a particular Colossus, learn its weakness, and defeat it. There's very little to be found off the beaten path, aside from items to raise max HP and stamina, but that doesn't mean there's nothing to explore. Finding these bosses is easier said than done, and the game provides scant hints as to their location. Getting to them often requires thoughtful navigation around obstacles, or lonely treks through forgotten ru<br><br> <br>Tears of the Kingdom 's vehicle construction already looks to be one of the game's big gimmicks, but sailing could act alongside that, potentially with self-constructed boats. Not to mention, a flood overtaking Hyrule could be what the title Tears of the Kingdom refers to, as Hyrule is flooded by a deluge almost like the tears of the goddess falling onto the land. It's possible that the title could have been foreshadowing such an event all al<br><br> <br>When fighting enemies with a lot of health, a way to deal damage over time can be helpful. Using the new TOTK Fuse ability to combine a Crab with an arrow could create a Crab Arrow that has the Crab bite enemies to deal a small amount of damage over time. This can also prove useful against bosses with mechanics that require Link to move in order to avoid damage, as the Crab Arrow can keep dealing some amount of damage to the boss while Link is unable to properly att<br><br> <br>Tears of the Kingdom could end up reenacting Wind Waker 's, but with a different result than the timeline that led to that game's events. There have been so many incarnations of Link and Hyrule in The Legend of Zelda that almost every game could take place in its own dimension, all tied together with the vital elements of the series. Tears of the Kingdom 's flood may not be as world-changing as Wind Waker 's was, and perhaps the land could still be habitable by the game's <br><br> <br>While some fans may not recognize Tulin as a returning character (or at all), his place in the final TOTK trailer places him as something of a stand-in for his father, the more familiar Teba, aiding Link in what seems to be sky-based portion of the game, and even being present for the appearance of a giant new boss monster. Of course, this is a major step up from his BOTW appearance, where many players are likely to not even have encountered him or the archery-based minigame that he provides. With Teba suffering from an injury in BOTW , it's likely Tulin is stepping up in his pl<br><br> <br>Inspired by the landscapes of the South Pacific archipelago of New Caledonia, __ Tchia offers a lush open-world adventure similar to the one found in BOTW and its sequel TOTK - but it takes inspiration from other Zelda games as well. As Tchia, players will brave dark caves, solve puzzles, climb rocky cliffs, and glide above the treetops. In a Wind Waker -like twist, however, Tchia can also play the ukulele to cast musical spells, and sail her raft between the archipelago's islands. Her ukulele is also fully playable; players can learn actual songs or simply jam <br> <br>It's possible that the ships seen in the Tears of the Kingdom leaks could be innocuous parts of the game. However, it would be much more exciting if they were a hint toward a major twist that significantly changed the game.

In fact, Redditor Nova604 admits that they're " afraid they won't give us the hookshot" in Tears of the Kingd<br><br> <br>Given Tears of the Kingdom started life as a planned DLC for Breath of the Wild (via Polygon ) before it became a full sequel, it's hard to imagine it will change a lot about the core mechanics and even the main map from the original game.
