Impa has been a steadily returning character throughout much of The Legend of Zelda , although in Breath of the Wild she was 120 years old. She played an essential role in BOTW by assisting Link in recovering his lost memories and telling him the story of Ganon. Over the years, she has been an important character as a bodyguard to Princess Zelda and even fought valiantly alongside Link in the events of Hyrule Warriors . If Purah’s research could be used on Impa, she could in fact prove to be a very powerful character in Tears of the Kingd
Ocarina of Time was a flagship game for the Nintendo 64, and it was a game Nintendo purposely utilized to test how far the console could be pushed. While Ocarina of Time’s scrapped portal system couldn’t work in the Zelda franchise in the late ’90s — the portal work was completed around ’96 or ’97 per Giles Goddard, a developer who worked on a concept demo for Ocarina of Time – it might be able to now. The Switch can handle much more complicated coding and larger game sizes. The original Nintendo Switch handled Breath of the Wild , the franchise’s biggest game, with ease, and now there are even newer Switch models with better specs and capabilities. With each new console, cooler features like these scrapped portals become increasingly possi
The title reveal trailer for **The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom ** has some references to the Zonai, leaving hints that this extinct tribe might have a role in the story. Even in Breath of the Wild , the Zonai never appear beyond traces of the tribe that have been left behind. However, it seems that players might learn more about the Zonai and their relationship with Hyrule in Tears of the Kingd
While the Sacred Realm is spoken of as a land of light, its divine power has sparked countless conflicts across Hyrule’s history. Civil wars and chaotic battles of good and evil have been waged over its sacred Triforce, and while Hyrule’s royal family has long stood as the protectors of the Sacred Realm, their efforts to protect the Triforce have often led to disaster for their kingdom. As Ganon’s malice invades Hyrule once more in Tears of the Kingdom , it seems that the fight for the Sacred Realm is far from o
When Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom _ , sequel to the hit _Breath of the Wild , releases, it can have some classic enemies that have appeared in past games’ bestiaries. So far, trailers and teaser videos have confirmed that some of BOTW ‘s enemies will return in Zelda: TOTK and that new enemies will also be coming, and there’s likely more that still haven’t been shown yet. Tears of the Kingdom releases on May 12 of next year, leaving some time before players will see which enemies, if any, will come from classic ga
The possible uses for Ocarina of Time’s scrapped portals in Breath of the Wild 2 are plentiful. It is possible that they could be located in strict positions, such as denoted to specific spots in Hyrule open World Castle. However, one must also consider their potential mobility. If Link can harness their power in BOTW 2 __ and move them, they might provide quicker access to the far reaches of Hyrule that the player would otherwise have a harder time accessing. After all, it’s unknown if Link will maintain all of his teleportation points from Breath of the Wild in its sequel. If not, these crystals could prove to be paramount in his journey to aid Zelda and reclaim Hyule from the Calamity. Perhaps Zelda will be playable in BOTW2 , and this is somehow involved with the port
The glider’s reveal confirmed the popular TOTK fan theory that Link would have some form of flying mount to navigate the various floating islands, similar to Skyward Sword ‘s Loftwings. Unlike a Loftwing, however, players may not be able to truly fly with the mechanical glider, as it has no obvious means of self-propulsion. It could be that they’ll only be able to glide with it as a floating platform, giving it a similar purpose to the regular glider but presumably without the cost of consuming stamina. It appears that it will be extremely useful for exploring Hyrule – especially its floating islands – and could be of help in solving some _The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom _ puzzles, but may have little to no function in com
The Tears of the Kingdom trailer doesn’t show much, but there is another two-headed dragon symbol. This one is different from the Ouroboros and is related to Mesoamerican cultures, which could have offered some inspiration to the design of the Zonai ruins in Breath of the Wild . Link pushes open a stone door that has a dragon with two heads meeting at the top instead of two dragons eating each other’s tails. The two-headed dragon symbolizes two things in Mesoamerican culture; first is the power of the earth, but the second is calamit
At the end of the day, Ocarina of Time’s scrapped portals are simply something fun to think about. While they may not feature in Breath of the Wild 2 , it’s possible they could be unlocked with the power of the Switch at Nintendo’s disposal. Nintendo will likely bring many innovations to **The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild’s ** sequel, and may even revisit scrapped ideas like Ocarina of Time’s portals to find inspirat
