Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom Can Finally Show Calamity Ganon s Origins

In the new trailer (above) and past ones, such as Nintendo 's E3 2021 teaser, Hyrule appears to be much closer to BOTW 's familiar open world in scenes where Link is wearing the upgraded Champion's Tunic. In comparison, scenes where he wears the green outfit have a much more mysterious and wild atmosphere to them. They show less familiar scenery, and seem more focused on new aspects and the floating islands. In addition, Link uses the advanced flying mount when he wears the Champion's Tunic, which is very telling. It's entirely possible that the Champion's Tunic outfit is being used for scenes meant to take place after the events of Breath of the Wild , whereas the ones where Link is wearing his green outfit are in a distant p


Continuing with the Skyward Sword connections, part of this rumor stems from Calamity Ganon being defeated at the end of BOTW and TOTK needing a villain to take his place, a position which Demise could be likely to fill. The images in stone for the TOTK trailer show a woman hovering similar to Zelda when Ghirahim is trying to summon Demise, which means that they could be depicting another point in time when Demise was summoned. He may have been sealed away in Skyward Sword, but he was sealed in Zelda's iconic Master Sword, which is broken in TOTK. Due to this, the seal may have broken as w


In BOTW , Princess Zelda makes a similar pilgrimage to Hyrule’s three sacred springs with the same intention of awakening the divine power of her ancestors. Instead of accessing her power, however, she finds herself cursing Hylia and questioning why her lifetime of devotion has gone unacknowledged. In the end, however, Zelda’s power finally awakens as she saves Link’s life, allowing her to keep the Calamity at bay until Hylia’s Chosen Hero could reawaken from his restorative slumber a century la


The title "Tears of the Kingdom" could also reference the Zonai's past and the events that led to their destruction. There's a common theme regarding dragons with the Zonai, and the logo for Tears of the Kingdom is two dragons of the same style as the Zonai statues eating the other's tail to create a symbol called an Ouroboros. Since the Ouroboros symbolizes the cycle of destruction and rebirth, it seems likely that TOTK will feature the Zonai's history, what happened to them, and possibly their ret


In the trailers for Tears of the Kingdom , Link and Zelda Tears Of The Kingdom Update find Ganondorf sealed away underground. Additionally, chunks of land are launched into the sky by Malice. Both of these concepts suggest that Tears of the Kingdom may allow Link and Zelda to explore below ground, spelunking into long-forgotten caverns and unearthing ancient ruins. Some sparser areas of Breath of the Wild ’s map may be populated by these new ruins, like Arbiter’s Grounds in the Gerudo Wasteland. In Breath of the Wild they are barely visible above the sand, but if they rose up they could form a new dungeon recalling Twilight Princess ’ own Arbiter’s Grou


By making further use of the Spinner's unique mechanics, it could become an incredibly useful tool for Link in a new adventure.It could ride on surfaces that neither Link nor Epona would be able to cross normally while letting him fight at the same time. The Spinner could also be adapted into one of the Sheikah Slate's new features if it returns in Tears of the Kingdom , strengthening the argument for bringing it back. Twilight Princess is a Zelda game worth replaying before TOTK , and the Spinner was one of its more interesting new id


If time travel is present in Tears of the Kingdom in some form, it carries a few implications. The first is that its version of Hyrule would be very different from BOTW . That much was already known, but if Link is getting sent back to the past, and especially if it's as far back as the first rise of Calamity Ganon, then it could be practically unrecognizable, and have an all-new cast of characters either unrelated to those in BOTW or with only distant relations. It could also mean that players will see Ganon's intitial rise first-hand, in addition to other events such as the construction of the Guardians and Divine Beasts, which BOTW 's sequel could use in unexpected ways if


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


There are many enemies from Zelda 's past that could come to TOTK . Some of them could fit in very well and should make an appearance, while others might be better off excluded. Tears of the Kingdom 's darker themes compared to Breath of the Wild might be a sign that the creepier and macabre enemies of Zelda will come. The floating islands also could mean that more flying enemies will come to BOTW , both new ones and those from past games. It's even possible that recurring enemies will come that are completely unexpected. In addition, any returning enemies may have some significant changes, and could be completely unrecognizable from their previous versi
