If the ReDead were to appear in Tears of the Kingdom , they could be quite different from how they are in most games. They might take the form of skeletons instead of zombies, and either join the ranks of BOTW ‘s Stal or completely replace them. Malice animating the skeletons of dead Hylians and turning them against Link during the night sounds like a good story for them, and makes sense with the large amounts of Malice infecting Hyrule as shown in the trailers available so far. Their paralyzing ability could be more obnoxious than it was in past games, however, especially if they’re alongside BOTW ‘s other powerful enemies and bosses , given the game’s ragdoll physics and the various elemental effects enemies can
The depictions of animals in the Zonai ruins show that three creatures had more importance to them than others. These creatures would be pigs, birds, and, most prominently, dragons. It’s possible that the Zonai worshiped the lightning dragon Farosh, who appears around the ruins in Faron. Alternatively, these animals are linked to the three pieces of the Triforce. Pigs are associated with Ganon, who holds the Triforce of Power. Owls are birds associated with wisdom. The Spring of Courage is found inside dragon ruins, which links the dragon to courage. Therefore, the Zonai seem to have a connection to the Triforce or a reverence for
Part of what has made the Legend of Zelda series so enduring is its many strong characters. Link has always remained the series’ star, and while he’s proven to be a consistently strong protagonist, it’s high time that another beloved character had the spotlight. There are plenty of other characters whose combination of interesting storyline potential and intriguing combat styles would shake things up in innovative ways. As players replay Zelda games before Tears of the Kingdom releases, they will likely even come across more strong candidates for other main characters not listed here. While these **Legend of Zelda ** characters may never get their time in the sun, their potential is a testament to the series’ well-crafted charact
The Dark World is a realm of evil created by Ganon’s corruption of the Sacred Realm in The Legend of Zelda series. While the Sacred Realm itself may return in TOTK , it’s possible that the twisted Dark World may make an appearance, too. Ganon’s malice is shown to corrupt most of Hyrule in BOTW, making it possible for it to extend into the game’s iteration of the Sacred Realm as w
Dinolfos are lizard-like enemies similar to Lizalfos, but much larger and stronger and with spikes across their bodies. They wield weapons such as axes and swords, and some iterations have metallic armor. Unlike Lizalfos, they typically fight Link alone rather than in groups. Some varieties breathe fire, and others have protective arm guards to block Link’s atta
The official name for Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom _ , the sequel to _Breath of the Wild , has finally been revealed, and it’s opened up a number of questions about what it means for the story. ” Tears of the Kingdom ” sounds rather ominous, and has some worrying implications for Link, Zelda, and indeed all of Hyrule. Along with the official title, the BOTW sequel’s release date confirmed via trailer to be May 12 of next year, so it may be some time before players see exactly what TOTK ‘s story holds, but more trailers released in the interim will hopefully help shed some light on
Many fans likely have their own personal hopes for returning characters in Zelda: Tears of a Kingdom , but regardless of who ends up being a part of the game’s narrative, it won’t change the game’s protagonist. At this point, Link has come to be the expected main character of every mainline title in the series. While this hasn’t always been the case for spinoffs, with games like Hyrule Warriors and Tingle’s Balloon Fight DS allowing players to step into the shoes of other characters, and there have been short segments in mainline Zelda games where players could control someone else, a character besides Link has never really gotten the chance to truly sh
While the Sacred Realm is spoken of as a land of light, its divine power has sparked countless conflicts across Hyrule’s history. Civil wars and chaotic battles of good and evil have been waged over its sacred Triforce, and while Hyrule open world’s royal family has long stood as the protectors of the Sacred Realm, their efforts to protect the Triforce have often led to disaster for their kingdom. As Ganon’s malice invades Hyrule once more in Tears of the Kingdom , it seems that the fight for the Sacred Realm is far from o
As far as what type of culture the Zonai had, it seems that they valued power and enjoyed war. The item description of the Barbarian Helm mentions ” an ancient warlike tribe from the Faron Region ,” and this can be assumed to refer to the Zonai as the majority of their ruins are found in Faron. It’s possible that their warlike nature led to the Zonai becoming a lost tribe in Breath of the Wild , but since none of the tribe remain, players have to look at the ruins to find clues about why this tribe vanis
