The Legend Of Zelda: The 10 Most Unusual Races

Zant is the primary antagonist for most of Twilight Princess . He makes a deal with Ganondorf in exchange for his power, and transforms the Twili people into Shadow Beasts in order to conquer Hyrule. Zant, unlike most Twili, resents that he could not leave the Twilight Realm, and he also holds a deep hatred for Midna since she was chosen as its leader above him by its royal family. He presents himself as composed and calculating for most of the game, but during his last meeting with Link and Midna, he reveals himself to be completely unstable, and acts extremely erratically during his final boss fight. It's possible that Zant's pact with Zelda 's iconic antagonist Ganondorf caused him to behave differently in Twilight Princess , but he attributes this to being the only Twili to have emotions, which were suppressed by the Twilight Realm royal family, inst


This ability to phase through solid matter looks like it will be very useful in Link's adventure through Hyrule. Though it doesn't seem like it will have many applications in combat, it could have a great many in traversal and puzzle solving, and can help improve BOTW 's exploration in the sequel . Link's new arm glows green while he uses this, so it would appear that this will be one of its features instead of something he has to pick up in the world like a weapon, though it may still have its limitations. Players may only be able to use it in the floating islands, for example, or only to travel vertically and not horizontally through walls. A new detail in Nintendo Zelda innovation 's latest TOTK trailer, also hosted on YouTube, may also have shown another limitation; Link carries capsules on his waist that are lit up the same color as the green that accompanies this ability, so it's possible that they're a consumable power source that he will need in order to use


The most obvious recurring location in Tears of the Kingdom is Hyrule Castle itself. Hyrule Castle has been prominently featured in trailers for the sequel, floating above Hyrule Field. In many Zelda games including Breath of the Wild , a corrupted Hyrule Castle has served as the final dungeon. This floating fortress of Malice looks set to be Tears of the Kingdom ’s own final dungeon, with Link and Zelda perhaps storming the castle after breaking a seal similar to Ocarina of Time . It remains to be seen, however, if Hyrule Castle Town has been rebuilt since the events of the previous game, now living in the floating castle’s sha


Dragons have been a recurring race in the Zelda games and can either be some of the toughest bosses in the game, as well as some of the best boss fights in The Legend of Zelda , or can be powerful allies. There has also been a trinity of dragons in Skyward Sword and Breath of the Wild each representing a province of Hyr


In Breath of the Wild , Link has a variety of abilities at his disposal to help him navigate the world and defeat his enemies. The majority of these come from the Sheikah Slate, a mystical artifact left to him by Princess Zelda. With it, he can create bombs, manipulate metal, freeze water into climbable pillars, and even stop time for enemies or inanimate objects. Other powers come from the spirits of his friends, the former Champions who lost their lives fighting Calamity Ganon 100 years prior. From what's been shown of Tears of the Kingdom so far, it's uncertain if these powers will return, but thankfully there will be others to take their pl


Zelda's death can affect Tears of the Kingdom differently depending on whether it happens during the beginning or end of the game. If it's at the beginning, when she falls into the crevice, it's possible that she'll return as a spirit and become a companion to Link as she is in Zelda: Spirit Tracks . She could inhabit Link's new arm in BOTW 2 , and be the source of some of the new abilities that it's shown to grant him such as returning objects to a previous position and phasing through solid stone. Part of the main quest may even involve reviving Zelda via the Shrine of Resurrection if this is the case. On the other hand, if she were to perish during the ending of the game, the gameplay may not change overly much, but it could make for a very somber ending if she were not shown being revi


While Tears of the Kingdom promises to open up Breath of the Wild ’s world once again, many locations have already served their purpose. The locations discussed here expose new angles through which to explore Hyrule’s terrible past in Tears of the Kingdom . Naturally, it’s also exciting to see what new locations are added to the game: Eiji Aonuma and Nintendo (via YouTube) promises Tears of the Kingdom 's " expanded world goes beyond " the already shown sky. This rather cryptic message suggests players may go beyond Hyrule’s borders or possibly into other realms, like the Triforce’s Sacred Realm. **Tears of the Kingdom ** promises to not only revisit but expand Breath of the Wild ’s extensive
