One notable aspect of the trailers for Tears of the Kingdom has been the distinct lack of Breath of the Wild's Sheikah technology. Everything from the shrines littering the landscape to the game's massive towers seems to be missing from all the footage we've seen of the sequel. Despite this, you may not have noticed that this gameplay trailer showcases a few distinct towers of its own scattered around the scen

Interestingly, another vehicle shown in the demonstration is a basic flying raft - a wooden platform fused with four downward-facing fans and a sail, allowing it to move with the direction of the wind. The limited battery, however, seems to greatly restrict such devices from gaining too much height, which is a far cry from the sky-faring vehicles previously seen in trailers. While not elaborated on in the gameplay demonstration, it seems likely that Tears of the Kingdom 's progression will eventually allow for dedicated ways of building more complicated vehicles, with much greater or even unlimited energy suppl

Of course, there are many more side quests to complete and colorful characters to encounter in Hyrule. However, this synopsis nevertheless covers the broad strokes of Link’s journey in Breath of the Wild , from the tragedies of the past to the triumphs of the present. With this in mind, fans of the game __ should be well-prepared for the release of **Tears of the Kingdom ** , which will soon continue the story of Link and Zelda in the wake of Calamity Ganon’s def

Catching insects, lizards and other small critters in breath of The wild switch 2 of the Wild is a matter of careful movements and quick reflexes, as stealth is a key factor in not scaring the small animals away. Meanwhile, the Bug Net is a familiar Zelda tool that nevertheless failed to make it into BOTW . Infamously a Zelda item capable of reflecting magic , its intended use is naturally to help Link capture small creatures, typically insects, for a variety of purposes. If the Bug Net is included in Tears of the Kingdom , it will make doing so much easier, and as a result, the player would have a greater supply of useful elixir ingredie

Possibly the most unexpected part of this trailer is the inclusion of various vehicles that Link can ride. Although the prior game's DLC saw the inclusion of a motorcycle for Link, that was technically a Divine Beast. These vehicles - including one that looks like a car, a hot air balloon, and a flying platform powered by propellors - seem to be pieced together from parts that are found throughout the wo

On top of one of the sky islands, Link is shown fighting with a large creature. This being is made of square boxes, connected by tendrils of glowing greenish-blue energy that binds his body together. These tendrils were also present in the green golem seen in older trailers for this direct Zelda seq

Interestingly, however, despite indications that Zelda might be reprising her perennial role as a damsel in distress, the final trailer for Tears of the Kingdom seems to suggest otherwise, despite her separation from Link in what appears to be an early part of the game. Cutscenes, presumably from later in TOTK , separately show Zelda interacting with a currently unknown character, holding the Master Sword, and awaiting Link at an unknown location, suggesting that she has a larger role to play in the game's story than in B

Aside from using the ability for exploration, however, Recall can also be spotted being used in a previous trailer for Tears of the Kingdom . In it, Link uses the ability on a large metal spiked ball rolling down a hill at him, sending the object back up its path and crashing it through several enemies. Like Stasis from BOTW , the specific use cases of Recall seem somewhat niche in combat situations, with the ability seemingly being most useful for turning the tables on preset traps, but creative players may yet be able to find creative uses for it upon the full game's rele

While mostly sidelined in Breath of the Wild with much of her presence relegated to optional flashbacks, Zelda seems to be taking on a somewhat more active role in the story of Tears of the Kingdom , with the game's most recent trailer featuring her prominently in what seem to be story-related cutscenes. Along with her new look, Zelda's more pronounced role in pre-release material has even sparked some hopes that she might be playable in the game's full release - although this has yet to be confirmed one way or the ot

Tears of the Kingdom has already been shown to build upon the world created in BOTW in numerous ways. Although much of the main plot line is being kept under wraps, trailers for TOTK have shown new vehicles and weapons being used by Link to explore both the land of Hyrule and the sky above it. BOTW placed great emphasis on foraging for equipment, as well as utilizing a durability system. Consequently, there were few permanent additions to Link’s inventory. TOTK could change this by adding some useful tools which would never need replacing, thereby removing one of the main sources of frustration in BOTW ’s gamep
