At first glance, the land of Hyrule looks near-identical to Breath of the Wild's post-apocalyptic, Guardian-infested map. In the official trailer, you'll notice Link riding around on horseback in the tell-tale green fields of Hyrule's central region.
While the Lizal Tri-Boomerang may make for a solid sword, it doesn't hold a candle to some of the game's heavy-hitting weapons, such as the Lynel Sword line. These wide, flat blades are as powerful as the Lynels who weld them, and the Savage Lynel Sword actually has a section of its blade split in three. Fusing a weapon like the Lizal Tri-Boomerang with the Savage Lynel Sword could make for one devastating weapon in Tears of the King
Some weapon combinations feel like they could make normally weak tools into true threats. Take the Torch, for example. The classic tool allows you to make your way across dark and dangerous areas with a source of light – an ability that's come in incredibly handy across multiple iterations of Zelda titles – but it doesn't pack much of a pu
Like Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom , while Tchia draws on games that came before it, it also has its own identity. The detailed world building, based on New Caledonia's folklore and culture, is complemented by cutscenes voiced in the traditional languages of the archipelago. In its most novel mechanic, Tchia allows players to inhabit and control a wide variety of things in the open world, including animals like birds, sharks, and dogs along with inanimate objects. Players can explore the inspired open world of Tchia on PC, PS4, and
In recent days, images from the artbook for Tears of the Kingdom leaked online, and they revealed plenty of secrets well before the game's release. Amidst the Tears of the Kingdom leaks were several images of fish and ships. It's already known that the game will feature floating islands around Hyrule, so it's possible that the ships could be airships of some sort. When combined with several different fish shown off, though, it gives off the impression that they're designed for the ocean inst
After defeating one of the skeletal Stalizalfos, you'll be able to pick up and use one of their arms as a weapon. Aside from the simple joy of smacking foes with their own fists, you can also toss the Lizalfos arm, with the bone functioning as a boomerang that's much like their signature weap
Immortals Fenyx Rising is an open-world, exploration-based game similar to BOTW and TOTK , but with a greater focus on combat than any of the games covered in this list so far. Much like the Zelda games, its art style strikes a satisfying balance between stunning landscapes and cartoonish character design. Players can explore its vast, diverse open world by scaling cliffs, riding animals, or soaring through the sky. Secrets, optional puzzles, and platforming challenges are scattered across the map, and players may discover them in any order they wish. Wielding sword, bow, and godly powers, players will face off against monsters of myth, including a snarling Cerberus and towering tit
If Tears of the Kingdom leads to the flooding of Hyrule, then it could secretly be the prequel to The Wind Waker . This idea could play into the Tears of the Kingdom trailer from the most recent Nintendo Direct. Ganon's minions are raging, and his influence is still strong across the land despite his defeat. That combined with the TOTK leak potentially hinting at time-travel could see the flood, and therefore the Wind Waker timeline as a future that Link must avoid. While Hyrule may get buried beneath the waves, it could be Link's duty to make sure that it doesn't stay that
Midna's true form, revealed in Twilight Princess doesn't appear here, instead, her impish design has been honored. As Midna appears to have tattoos herself, making her the perfect subject for a tattoo. The digital Twilight Realm markings on her body are rigid, turning at right angles. Contrasting this with her natural curves and flowing hair makes for a fantastic design. Additionally, the colors stay true to the original game, captured with impeccable det
Starting from one of the sky islands, Link can leap to the surface and scan the landscape from a (literal) bird's eye view. Similarly, you can also target specific Bomb Flower Locations while experiencing the long fall to ground-level.
Tears of the Kingdom's Link can merge different items together with Fuse. And not just some items; at least if the trailer is any indication, pretty much everything within the interactive environment is up for grabs.
Immortals Fenyx Rising is based on stories and characters from Greek mythology. It follows Fenyx, a Delian squire who sets out to end the giant Typhon's reign of terror. Fenyx does this by rescuing a series of gods Typhon has rendered powerless, defeating their corrupted forms and returning them to their former glory. It's a story with a lighter tone than BOTW and TOTK , with snarkier characters and a more well-defined, anything-but-silent protagonist. Immortals Fenyx Rising is available on Switch, PC, Xbox, PS4, and
