Breath Of The Wild 2: 8 Zelda Characters Fans Hope Return In Tears of the Kingdom

Another form of Princess Zelda, Sheik is a persona taken on by her during Ocarina of Time that could completely hold their own in a separate game. In fact, an allegedly canceled Sheik Legend of Zelda spin-off would have done just that, but fans will never see the completed title. Sheik only appears for short moments in Ocarina of Time that leave many fans wanting more, particularly considering the character’s combative prowess and overall powerful nature, which are shown off more in Hyrule Warriors and the Super Smash Bros . ser

Another item from Twilight Princess , the Spinner occupied a niche that very few other items in the Zelda series have taken on. The Spinner was an item that Link could ride. Such a role has otherwise been occupied almost solely by Epona, Link’s trusted horse companion. Although it has only gotten one real appearance thus far, the Spinner’s unique qualities could make it a useful tool in Link’s next advent

The biggest mystery, however, is the true identity of Breath of the Wild ‘s Zonai , an ancient tribe of magic wielders. Structures such as the three labyrinths and the Faron region’s stonework were created by the Zonai, easily identifiable by their Aztec-like designs prominently featuring dragon heads. Crucially, the Tears of the Kingdom logo also features these dragon designs, fueling speculation that more Zonai history will be explored in the game. Perhaps an underground Zonai ruin will form a dungeon, or a sprawling network of tunnels. A fantastic location for a Zonai-inspired dungeon would be beneath Lake Hylia, given its proximity to the Zonai ruins of the Faron reg

Sheik always seems to appear out of thin air when finding Link throughout Ocarina of Time , showing off a sly nature that would fit perfectly in a more stealth-focused title than the average Zelda game. A Sheik game could fall during the period of time Link is asleep in the Temple of Time and show more about what Sheik was actually doing in Ocarina of Time . Little is known about what happens during the seven years Link is asleep, and a Sheik game would be a great way to learn more about that period of time as well as explore Sheik’s combative capabilities as they hold their own in Link’s absence and wage war against Ganond

September 2022’s Nintendo Direct gave fans an exciting new glimpse of the sequel to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild . The game, which fans have been calling Breath of the Wild 2 , finally got its official name: Tears of the King

The most obvious recurring location in Tears of the Kingdom is Hyrule Castle itself. Hyrule Castle has been prominently featured in trailers for the sequel, floating above Hyrule Field. In many Zelda games including Breath Of the Wild exploits of the Wild , a corrupted Hyrule Castle has served as the final dungeon. This floating fortress of Malice looks set to be Tears of the Kingdom ’s own final dungeon, with Link and Zelda perhaps storming the castle after breaking a seal similar to Ocarina of Time . It remains to be seen, however, if Hyrule Castle Town has been rebuilt since the events of the previous game, now living in the floating castle’s sha

**The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom ** must revisit certain locations from its predecessor, Breath of the Wild . For the first time in Zelda history, Nintendo is providing a sequel that takes place in the same version of Hyrule not separated by ages. While many locations have spanned the series’ entries like Death Mountain and The Lost Woods, they have always been completely morphed to suit the specific game’s aesthetic. This time, the locations must distinguish themselves without completely altering Breath of the Wild ’s topogra

The reincarnated version of the eponymous Princess Zelda Tetra could easily lead a game herself. She is considered by many to be the LoZ ‘s series’ best version of Zelda , and alongside her loyal pirate crew could tell an amazing seafaring adventure tale. A game of her own could dive into Tetra’s backstory and give interesting new lore for the world – she became captain after her mother died, but other than that not much is known about her origins, family history, or how she assembled her crew. Whether the game was simply about seafaring and plundering or pitting Tetra against the forces of evil herself, she’s a great candidate for a Legend of Zelda protagon

Tingle has already made a reputation for appearing anywhere and everywhere, so a fun inclusion in Tears of the Kingdom would be perfect. Tingle’s role could just be as a humble merchant like in Majora’s Mask or as a pivotal side character like in Wind Waker . Either way, many fans will either laugh or groan over seeing Tingle ag

One possibility for Tears of the Kingdom ‘s meaning is that Zelda, the princess of Hyrule, will die. After the events of the first game, Zelda presumably is hard at work rebuilding BOTW ‘s ruin of Hyrule, helping the people who inhabit it as she wished to in the game’s final cutscene. As such, it stands to reason that she would be beloved throughout the land. Tears of the Kingdom could refer to Hyrule mourning her after her death. Since Zelda falls into a crevice in the E3 2021 trailer and has not appeared in any footage outside the cave where she and Link find the withered mummy, this is a terrifyingly real possibil
