Ocarina of Time was a flagship game for the Nintendo 64, and it was a game Nintendo purposely utilized to test how far the console could be pushed. While Ocarina of Time’s scrapped portal system couldn’t work in the Zelda franchise in the late ’90s — the portal work was completed around ’96 or ’97 per Giles Goddard, a developer who worked on a concept demo for Ocarina of Time – it might be able to now. The Switch can handle much more complicated coding and larger game sizes. The original Nintendo Switch handled Breath of the Wild , the franchise’s biggest game, with ease, and now there are even newer Switch models with better specs and capabilities. With each new console, cooler features like these scrapped portals become increasingly possi
Without a doubt, the Hylian race is one of the most interesting in Zelda and features the primary characters of the franchise like Link and Zelda. The Hylians aren’t too much different from regular Humans but originate from the sky and are the founders of Hyr
The story of Zelda follows the reincarnations of the Goddess and her Chosen Hero as they rise time and time again to protect their kingdom from Ganon’s malice. Their struggles to protect and wield the Triforce throughout Hyrule’s history give way to new legends in each era of the timeline, creating a centuries-long story spanning countless generations. Unfortunately, Link and Zelda’s frequent use of time travel has resulted in a deeply fractured and somewhat confusing timeline, making it difficult to figure out which games are most relevant to its overarching narrat
The Darknut is an enemy that first appeared in the original Legend of Zelda game, where players had to attack them from behind to damage them. They take the form of large, dark suits of armor, and what’s beneath it varies from game to game. They are extremely strong enemies that possess powerful armor and shields as well as strong weapons, and were especially formidable in Twilight Princess , where they had two phases, armored and unarmored. There are different colors, with the most common being black, red, and blue, though one in Twilight Princess is g
Not every rumor or theory regarding Tears of the Kingdom is likely to be true, but there are some that line up with the scarce amount of information and images that players have seen so far. There are players who have scrutinized even the smallest details and come up with possibilities as to locations Link may visit and characters from other games who might return. However, not everything from past games, such as some BOTW enemies, should return in TO
Dinolfos are a very good classic Zelda game enemy to appear in BOTW ‘s sequel. They look cool and tough, and could make a great overworld enemy that Link would encounter in most all areas. Since they wield weapons, they can have equally cool ones unique to them like other enemies do, and the fire-breathing varieties mean that they can come in different elemental forms like Lizalfos. In addition, they drop Dinolfos Fangs and Dinolfos Arm Guards when defeated in Hyrule Warriors , so they already have some drops for Tears of the Kingdom to use. Since they’re also a stronger counterpart of Lizalfos as Moblins are to Bokoblins, the best way to use them could be for them to help lead them and fight alongside them just like Moblins and Bokoblins
The possible uses for Ocarina of Time’s scrapped portals in Breath of the Wild 2 are plentiful. It is possible that they could be located in strict positions, such as denoted to specific spots in Hyrule Castle. However, one must also consider their potential mobility. If Link can harness their power in BOTW 2 __ and move them, they might provide quicker access to the far reaches of Hyrule that the player would otherwise have a harder time accessing. After all, it’s unknown if Link will maintain all of his teleportation points from Breath of the Wild in its sequel. If not, these crystals could prove to be paramount in his journey to aid Zelda and reclaim Hyule from the Calamity. Perhaps Zelda will be playable in BOTW2 , and this is somehow involved with the port
The other part of the rumor comes from both the images of Link with a broken Master Sword and the mention in Breath of the Wild that Fi’s spirit is dormant within it. Even if Demise doesn’t make an appearance in tears of the kingdom star fragments of the Kingdom , it seems likely that Fi will. She’s referenced multiple times in BOTW , with her signature sound effect even playing, and she did hope to meet one of Link’s future incarnations. But as one of the safeguards against Demise, it seems more likely that they would both appear in TOTK instead of only one or the other being inclu
