In a similar vein to Fuse, the Ultrahand ability allows Link to bind objects together, being the method for creating the vehicles previously seen in trailers. Functioning similarly to the previous game's Magnesis ability, Link uses it first to pick up objects, rotate them, and move them around, being able to stick them to the surfaces of other objects once in proximity. In the demonstration, Link creates a rudimentary boat by fusing three logs and two strange mechanical fans, with the fans starting when hit and seemingly operating off of a limited, but replenishing battery gauge similar to Link's own stam

Despite the defeat of Calamity Ganon in Breath of the Wild , the latest trailer for Tears of the Kingdom finally confirms that its mysterious villain is in fact Ganondorf. Contrasting the explicitly monstrous and (for most of the game) mostly formless Calamity Ganon of BOTW , TOTK 's Ganondorf takes the form of a more humanoid Gerudo, mirroring the villains past appearances in previous Zelda games like Ocarina of Time . Interestingly, promotional art for the game shows TOTK 's Ganondorf as taking somewhat of a departure from past Gerudo designs, with an exposed chest, ponytail, and a large kat

In Breath of the Wild, Link sees the ruins of the Temple of Time on The Great Plateau. Time travel, though, doesn't play much of a role in Link's quest to free the Divine Beasts and defeat Calamity Ganon.

There are several tools that The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom ** could include that Breath of the Wild ** did not fully provide the player with. Link collects a wide variety of tools throughout the Zelda franchise, used for everything from transportation to manipulating his environment. But although BOTW featured a wide variety of weapons, some of which had secondary uses, it was curiously lacking in more permanent to

What elevates this particular tattoo, however, is the addition of the powerful Mandela-like Triforce art at the end of wolf Link’s mane. The detailed florets and the icons of the Seven Sages contrast well with the softer lines of the wolf’s fur, providing a gradient of defined-to-blurred line work. The placement of the wolf’s head at the elbow also accentuates the contour of the forearm muscle. This is a great example of why not all tattoos need color to stand out (by @EG-TheFreak on DeviantA

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 locations while experiencing the long fall to ground-level.

Out of the confirmed returning character, Riju gets what might be the flashiest entrance in the new TOTK trailer, as it shows her dual wielding scimitars while lightning crashes down around her. Although not explicitly shown doing so, it's likely that she will be able to fight alongside Link similarly to Sidon, with potentially even the ability to replicate the Urbosa's Fury power from the first game. Along with the mysterious structure shown rising out of the sand in the Gerudo Wasteland near the start of the trailer, it's likely that, along with Sidon and the other Champion descendants, Riju will have a more pronounced story role in TO

Similar to the Hookshot, the Boomerang is a weapon that sacrifices some damage for the sake of utility. The Boomerang can generally be used to defeat or stun enemies, activate distant switches, and bring items to Link. Zelda: Wind Waker and Twilight Princess , which still don't have Switch ports, Increased the usefulness of the Boomerang by allowing players to lock onto multiple targets at once instead of just a single target. Breath of the Wild even included the option to use the Boomerang as a more direct weapon, letting the player brandish it like a sword and perform melee atta

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

While the Hookshot might be more commonly used in Zelda as a tool to help Link get to places he'd otherwise be unable to reach, it can also be a good weapon with its versatility. Depending on the enemies and the game, the Hookshot can pull either the enemy to Link or vice versa. Smaller enemies can be defeated by hitting them with the Hookshot, and it has the capability of stunning larger enemies. Even Dampé in Ocarina of Time considered the Hookshot to be a treas

Link charging forward with sword outstretched works perfectly in this tattoo's Wind Waker design. The drawn-on artistic style, coupled with recognizable elements from the game make this tattoo stand out and its colors look sharp. The line work is expertly crafted to look as though this Link has just jumped straight out of the pages of a brightly colored Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom treasure maps official artbook.
