The hype is real, folks. With just weeks to go until the launch of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, we’ve compiled everything we know about what could be the biggest Switch game ever made.
A Direct Sequel to Breath of the Wild
Tears of the Kingdom picks up where Breath of the Wild left off, with Link and Zelda exploring beneath Hyrule Castle. From the trailers, we know the game features vast sky islands above Hyrule, new abilities that let Link manipulate objects in creative ways, and what appears to be a significantly darker narrative than its predecessor.
Nintendo has been characteristically tight-lipped about story details, but the glimpses we’ve seen suggest a game that builds on everything that made BOTW special while adding entirely new dimensions — literally.
New Abilities
The gameplay trailers have shown off several new abilities including Ultrahand (grab and manipulate objects), Fuse (combine items to create new weapons), Ascend (phase through ceilings), and Recall (reverse the movement of objects). These abilities seem designed to push creative problem-solving even further than the original.
