That said, Princess Zelda could have the unique potential to unlock her hidden power and fix Hyrule’s fractured timeline in Tears of the Kingdom . By recovering the memories of her past lives and sacred power, Zelda could gain all the wisdom necessary to finally face Demise’s malice and repair the timeline’s broken cycles. Between the direct references to past eras in BOTW and the apparent evidence of time travel mechanics in the upcoming sequel, it seems that a plot focused on repairing Zelda’s timeline is within the realm of possibility. Of course, this is all speculation until the game is released next May, but the title Tears of the Kingdom _ may have been one massive **_The Legend of Zelda ** spoiler hiding in plain si
If Zant does appear in BOTW 2 , he could become an antagonist again. How big of a villain he would be is hard to predict, but it can be inferred based on what’s been revealed so far. The first trailer for Breath Of The Wild Cloud Backup of the Wild 2 , as seen on Nintendo ‘s YouTube channel, showed a glimpse of who is presumably the main antagonist, a withered mummy believed – but not confirmed – to be Ganon sealed away deep beneath Hyrule; whether it is Ganon or not, the role of the main villain appears to be filled, so Zant doesn’t seem likely to be more than a secondary villain. It’s possible that he will become Ganon’s minion once again, and wield his Malice the same way he used Ganondorf’s power in Twilight Princess . If Zant does return as a villain in BOTW 2 , he could also be the antagonist of his own questline or DLC, like Mi
If Midna were to appear in BOTW 2 , she may not reprise her role as Link’s companion. Breath of the Wild and Twilight Princess are vastly different games, and it seems odd for her to accompany Link as she once did since he has no sidekick in the first BOTW and there’s no evidence that he will have one in the second. In addition, light is harmful to Midna, since she’s a member of the Twili race. She needs to stay in Link’s shadow whenever she’s in the world of light in Twilight Princess , so it doesn’t seem like she would follow him in a Hyrule not taken over by the Twilight. It’s more likely she would be a minor character if she returns in BOTW 2 , and be involved with a side quest or a minor questline instead of being a main character again. Alternatively, she could also appear in DLC just like her helmet did in the first BO
Once the sequel to Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild _ – tentatively called _Breath of the Wild 2 – comes out, characters from another Zelda game, Twilight Princess , could make an appearance. Which ones, if any, can’t be said for certain since there’s still so much of the game still shrouded in mystery, however. Breath of the Wild 2 is set to release some time in 2023, so it will be some time before players see whether any characters will ret
BOTW ’s developers have stated that the game takes place at the end of the Zelda timeline. While this leaves its exact placement ambiguous, Link’s lost memories suggest that he and the other characters are familiar with the timeline’s legends of old. Zelda distinctly references the Heroes of Sky, Time, and Twilight, and she and her fellow Champions are well aware that Link is the very same Hero reincarnated in their era. As such, it seems that the Triforce’s keepers in BOTW have some understanding of their place in the broader scale of this universe’s destiny, which places a lot of pressure on Zelda to succeed in unlocking her power before Ganon’s ret
Certain enemies can be more annoying than most for a few different reasons. BOTW ‘s most obnoxious enemies might not be powerful , but they usually have mechanics that make them difficult to deal with, and the items they drop typically aren’t worth the effort. Thankfully, most of them are rare, so players may not encounter them on a regular basis. It’s unknown whether any of them will return in TOTK at the moment, and some of them likely will if only because of their prevalence within BOTW , but hopefully they’ll change to be at least somewhat less annoying if
Zant is the primary antagonist for most of Twilight Princess . He makes a deal with Ganondorf in exchange for his power, and transforms the Twili people into Shadow Beasts in order to conquer Hyrule. Zant, unlike most Twili, resents that he could not leave the Twilight Realm, and he also holds a deep hatred for Midna since she was chosen as its leader above him by its royal family. He presents himself as composed and calculating for most of the game, but during his last meeting with Link and Midna, he reveals himself to be completely unstable, and acts extremely erratically during his final boss fight. It’s possible that Zant’s pact with Zelda ‘s iconic antagonist Ganondorf caused him to behave differently in Twilight Princess , but he attributes this to being the only Twili to have emotions, which were suppressed by the Twilight Realm royal family, inst
