Nintendo hasn’t revealed much in the way of information regarding the sequel to **The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild ** , but it is possible that the game could incorporate a scrapped feature from Ocarina of Time . The first animated teaser in 2019 showed Link and Zelda exploring some ruins where they seemingly encountered Calamity Ganon. However, no gameplay footage was shown until E3 2021 when Nintendo released a proper trailer for the game. This trailer shows Zelda falling into a pit of darkness before cutting to gameplay footage that showcases new features coming to the long-awaited seq
The Wind Waker is a game that for a long time stood out as a bit of an outlier in the series. It intentionally had a more bright and cartoonish look than past games, with a more expressive Link as well. This led to a game with a distinctly different feel from past titles. It also introduced one of the oddest items that Link has ever used in the Hyoi P
In Breath of the Wild , Link has a variety of abilities at his disposal to help him navigate the world and defeat his enemies. The majority of these come from the Sheikah Slate, a mystical artifact left to him by Princess Zelda. With it, he can create bombs, manipulate metal, freeze water into climbable pillars, and even stop time for enemies or inanimate objects. Other powers come from the spirits of his friends, the former Champions who lost their lives fighting Calamity Ganon 100 years prior. From what’s been shown of Tears of the Kingdom so far, it’s uncertain if these powers will return, but thankfully there will be others to take their pl
Ganondorf is hands-down the most iconic Legend of Zelda villain in the entire series, returning again and again to face up with Link throughout the series’ timeline. Zelda games are better when Ganondorf, not Ganon alone, are there, and although the series has done a good job over the years fleshing out the antagonist’s backstory, he could still absolutely shine in his own game. The story could perhaps show the powerful King of Gerudo during his ruling era, struggling to provide for his people in the Gerudo Desert before taking a deeply evil turn. In addition to telling a fresh take on his story, Ganondorf’s magical powers could provide interesting new combat mechanics that switch up gamep
Link has always collected items to use over the course of his adventures in the Legend of Zelda games. Most of the time, their primary use is to help him solve puzzles and complete tasks that he couldn’t before. In fact, many of the series’ dungeons revolve around items that the player finds inside of or immediately before them. With Tears of the Kingdom possibly conforming dungeons , it seems likely that old tradition could make a return as well. With the addition of some classic items aside from the old standbys, it could make Tears of the Kingdom an exhilarating experie
Breath of the Wild 2 will see Hyrule expanded in a unique way. Whereas players could only traverse land and water in its predecessor, the sequel will take to the skies and see Link exploring floating islands throughout Hyrule, which will add more lore for fans to sink their teeth into. Link also appears able to control time in the sequel. After an enemy launches a mine at Link, he’s seen pausing and reversing its path, hitting the enemy instead of himself. Unfortunately, the Breath of the Wild 2 E3 trailer is mostly all players have to speculate on at present, though its updates to Hyrule and Link’s abilities look promising. What’s become particularly interesting to consider in the meantime, though, is how scrapped features from past games might return in BOT
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 2 Zelda Save Data 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
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 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 ball and chain is first discovered in Twilight Princess ‘ Snowpeak Ruins in the hands of a mini-boss. Once collected, Twilight Princess ‘ suddenly right-handed Link could use it as a tool to smash obstacles, as well as a weapon against enemies. The ball and chain’s great weight gave it a lot of power, dealing heavy damage to enemies with its swings. However, it also weighed Link down, making him move considerably slower compared to when he wields his sword. Its size also enabled him to use it as a shield, making it something of a multipurpose tool in his arsenal. Although not as efficient as the sword in combat, the ball and chain can hold its
