Twilight Princess Characters Who Could Appear In BOTW 2

Depending on how deeply time travel is intertwined with Tears of the Kingdom 's story, it's also possible that Link will be traveling back and forth through time. There could be two concurrent stories with their own plot threads in Zelda BOTW 2 , one that takes place in the past and another in the present. Being transported as each story progresses and needing to complete quests to go back and forth doesn't seem likely given the open-world format focused on player freedom, and neither does a sudden shift halfway through akin to Ocarina of Time , but it's possible that players will be able to travel between the past and present at will instead. However, two separate maps - each one a fair bit larger than BOTW 's Hyrule due to the floating islands - feels like far too much to be within reason, and small self-contained areas of the past or present akin to BOTW 's Shrines don't seem likely either based on what's been shown so far. There are certainly other ways this concept could be utilized in BOTW 's sequel without ruining its story or gameplay, however, and they may become more apparent as additional information becomes availa

Midna is Link Home Customization's sidekick in Twilight Princess . She frees Link from his imprisonment at the start of the game and accompanies him throughout. At first, she has her own agenda and seems to care little for Link, treating him like a servant and refusing to tell him why she sought the Fused Shadows that they collect. After Zelda sacrifices herself to save Midna's life, however, she has a change of heart. It's eventually revealed that she is the leader of the Twilight Realm, and was deposed and cursed by Zant prior to the events of the game. Midna may be a rather annoying Zelda sidekick at the beginning of Twilight Princess , but she and Link grow close over time, and both are sad to separate by the end of the g


Some of the new abilities that Link will use in **The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom ** have been revealed, and they look like they will be quite good and fun to use. There may also be more abilities revealed in the time leading up to release, in addition to the ones that players won't see until they actually pick up the game and possible changes to some of Link's returning BOTW abilities . TOTK releases next year on May 12, so there's plenty of time to reveal more of the powers Link will wield on his new adventure through Hyr


The long-running **Legend of Zelda ** series has seen many entries, but never another protagonist besides Link. While there have been brief instances within games where players have had the chance to play as another character, Link has always been an integral part of each title. In the many stories told by the games over time, however, several other characters have been introduced who could serve as worthy video game protagonists besides Link thanks to their interesting narrative potential and new manners of combat when that could switch things up for the bet


The Zelda series’ heavy focus on time travel, time loops, and other chronometric mechanics have established plenty of canon ways for timeline traversal to occur within the plots of its games. It’s also not out of the question for Tears of the Kingdom to retrospectively focus on the Zelda timeline as Zelda’s journey could potentially allow her to recover memories of both her divinity and past lives. The latest trailer notably featured a heavy use of Ouroboros imagery as well, which could indicate that TOTK ’s story will focus on the past cycles of Hyrule - and the role that Hylia and her Chosen Hero have played throughout the kingdom’s hist


The latest ability to be revealed for Tears of the Kingdom is a mechanical, bird-like glider. This was shown for only a few seconds in the latest trailer, where Link landed on it from a skydive and gently glided over Hyrule. Unlike the other powers revealed so far, there's no evidence that this is connected to Link's new arm. It also doesn't look like it's of Sheikah make, as it's quite different from their other automatons such as the Guardians and Divine Bea


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


BOTW ’s developers have stated that the game takes place at the end of the Zelda timeline. While this leaves its exact placement ambiguous, Link’s lost memories suggest that he and the other characters are familiar with the timeline’s legends of old. Zelda distinctly references the Heroes of Sky, Time, and Twilight, and she and her fellow Champions are well aware that Link is the very same Hero reincarnated in their era. As such, it seems that the Triforce’s keepers in BOTW have some understanding of their place in the broader scale of this universe’s destiny, which places a lot of pressure on Zelda to succeed in unlocking her power before Ganon’s ret
