Link's rocking some sort of prehistoric Stone Age look in the gameplay trailer. Not only is he more or less shirtless, but he also sports unbound long hair and noticeable arm tattoos that look very Sheikah-like. In Breath of the Wild, different outfits and equipment gave Link specific abilities that helped him survive certain environments and enemies.<br><br> <br>Sable , released in 2021, follows its titular character as she undergoes a rite of passage: a treacherous, but relaxing and beautiful journey known as the Gliding. Much like BOTW and TOTK , Sable makes use of a variety of traversal mechanics: cliff climbing, dune surfing, and hovercraft riding. Players will have to guide Sable through barren desert and crumbling ruins, solving puzzles and using abilities creatively to cross its open world. Friendly NPCs color in the richly detailed world, and often grant side quests. Fishing and bug catching offer amusing diversions from the main story - and will prove irresistible to completioni<br><br> <br>There tends to be pressure for sequels to always be bigger as well as better than their predecessors, but Nintendo might be smart to focus on the latter point with Tears of the Kingdom . Including side content, Breath of the Wild is already a very long single-player game and Redditor TawnLR is concerned the sequel might inevitably be " too long " and " become boring after 40 hours or s<br><br>There's a downside to all these new Sheikah Slate abilities in Tears of the Kingdom: bad guys can use them. In past Legend of Zelda games, you could beat certain predictable antagonists by using specific weapons and combos in repetitive patterns.<br><br> <br>Recovered memories also reveal details surrounding the various champions. Mipha is revealed to have had an unrequited crush on Link. On the other hand, Revali was aloof and arrogant, seeing himself as far better suited for the role of Hero. Daruk was loud, boisterous, and a true friend to the young hero, while Urbosa was a strong chief and a mother figure for Zelda. But regardless of these different personalities, however, the four Champions ultimately came together in defense of Hyrule. Even if they ultimately failed, it is clear that they were all heroes in their own ri<br><br> <br>While there aren't any traditional BOTW -style __ puzzles in Shadow of the Colossus , the Colossi scratch the same itch. It's never enough just to slash away at a Colossus’ feet; each one has a unique mechanic that players must exploit to beat them. Some of the Colossi have weak points on their heads, and the player must find an opportunity to climb up; others lurk near slippery slopes, and the player must goad them into falling off. While it doesn't promise the same freedom as Tears of the Kingdom , Shadow of the Colossus has a similar focus on exploration and puzzle-like combat. Its remake is available only on PS4 and PS5, with the original PS2 version also receiving a port to the <br><br>The new Fuse capability allows you to create boats, flying machines, and car-like contraptions using surrounding materials and your own imagination. Paragliding fans that got Link airborne in Breath of the Wild can now be attached to fallen tree logs for a custom river-crossing motorboat, as the gameplay video demonstrates.<br><br> <br>Additionally, in further contrast to the Calamity Ganon of BOTW , which was an evil threat with little to no personality behind it, TOTK 's trailers indicate that Ganondorf will be much more of a character than a generic evil to be defeated - in no small part due being fully voiced for the first time in the Zelda series. Much like the first game, Ganondorf is likely what sets the plot of TOTK in motion, with his revival setting the stage for the rest of the game to take place - and, like Calamity Ganon, Ganondorf is likely to be Tears of the Kingdom 's final boss (although hopefully less disappointi<br> <br>Immortals Fenyx Rising is based on stories and characters from Greek mythology. It follows Fenyx, a Delian squire who sets out to end the giant Typhon's reign of terror. Fenyx does this by rescuing a series of gods Typhon has rendered powerless, defeating their corrupted forms and returning them to their former glory. It's a story with a lighter tone than BOTW and TOTK , with snarkier characters and a more well-defined, anything-but-silent protagonist. Immortals Fenyx Rising is available on <a href="https://Zeldatearsofthekingdomfans.com/articles/hyrule-s-hog-rider-tears-of-the-kingdom-player-builds-mind-blowing-harley-replica.html">Switch 2 creative Features</a>, PC, Xbox, PS4, and <br><br>Tears of the Kingdom seem to change that as yet another of Link's new abilities lets him reverse the motion of objects.

A young Goron named Yunobo is similarly instrumental in Link entering the lizard-like Vah Rudania, piloted by Goron Daruk. The young Gerdo Chieftain Riju aids Link with Vah Naboris, piloted by her ancestor Urbosa. Finally, Rito warrior Teba joins Link in reclaiming Vah Medoh, piloted by master archer Revali. Link completes a task for each ally to secure their aid. This notably includes the retrieval of the Thunder Helm, an heirloom of the Gerudo tribe, from the Yiga clan; in the process, he defeats the clan’s leader, Master Ko<br>
