If any weapon could add to the particular abilities of the Windcleaver, it might be one of the game's most unexpected: a Korok Leaf. These normally passive weapons allow you to blow large gusts of wind in any direction, and we'd wager that combining this gust with the Windcleaver's punishing gust would create a larger and more damaging burst of air with every swing while also still allowing the weapon to be used for practical purpo

And no, these aerial animals aren't the same as the graceful, sinuous dragons of Breath of the Wild (although they make an appearance in the demo too). At the very end of the gameplay trailer, Link rides past a creature that appears to be carrying some other living thing in its massive claws.

This power materialises in an ancient gauntlet that binds itself to Link’s arm, used to phase through environments and move mysterious objects long sat dormant in the sky. Whatever he touches, it burns his arm to a crisp until one final wish from Zelda brings it back from the brink with magic I imagine will have lasting consequences. Is Ganon now bound to Link, or another character entirely being kept ever so close to the game’s chest?

Until recently, the only information that could be used to glean anything about Tears of the Kingdom and its plot was contained in the trailers, alongside some other details that have been announced. It's known that the story will feature Hyrule once again being thrown into an apocalyptic situation, as it is seen crumbling under an energy that is eerily similar to that wielded by Calamity Ganon in BOTW . In addition, Link has a glowing arm in TOTK that appears to be a significant part of his arsenal in the new game. However, the biggest hints so far may have come from recent alleged Tears of the Kingdom leaks of the artb

Whenever Nintendo decides to provide an answer surrounding The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom , it hurls out dozens more questions and keeps the theory wheels turning in our brains. Yesterday’s Direct featured an extended glimpse at new gameplay mechanics, while also teasing a healthy dose of character and narrative details I am totally going to read too much into and come to conclusions that probably won’t end up happening.

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

One of the coolest weapon lines in Breath of the Wild is the Lizal boomerang, generally found in the hands of the Lizalfos enemy type. As the weapon's name implies, these boomerangs will return to you after being tossed at enemies. That aside, they also make for solid handheld weapons, with the Tri-Boomerang standing as the most powerful of the th

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

The Windcleaver is an incredibly unique blade. Acquired by defeating one of the Yiga clan's more powerful members, this large sword is quite powerful, sending a slashing burst of wind toward foes with every swing. But could this unique secondary ability be improved u

However, innovation and evolution were at the heart of what made Breath of the Wild a game-changing success . A sequel of limited ambition and one that fails to expand on what made its predecessor great might end up disappointing fans when it releases later this year. From the same old overworld map feeling stale to Princess Zelda being mostly absent once again, these are some Redditor's biggest fears about Tears of the Kingdom, spawned by Redditor Tyto_2510

Tears of the Kingdom flooding Hyrule and leading to The Wind Waker would be an interesting twist, but that's not the only direction that it could go. In fact, there is already at least one contradiction between the two games. Not only did the King of Hyrule have different names in both Breath of the Wild and The Wind Waker , but BOTW 's king was already dead long before that switch 2 musou game, much less TOTK , while Wind Waker 's king was there at Hyrule's end. The Kings of The Legend of Zelda 's Hyrule are not the only difference, but they are one of the most promin

Throughout the Legend of Zelda series, the princess has often been disappointingly reduced to a damsel-in-distress role, but her Breath of the Wild characterization made her far more human and likable as a character. Now would be the perfect time for her to have more agency which is why there have been countless calls for her to be a playable character in the sequel. For Tears of the Kingdom to ignore fans and give her the same clichéd role again would be more than disappoint
