![]() These abilities impact both combat and traversal: Recall, Fuse, Ultrahand, and Ascend. Nintendo’s March gameplay demo provided an in-depth look at Link’s new abilities - and they could change everything. All of Link’s new abilities were readily available during the preview event, which may not the the case in the beginning of the game it’s likely Link will earn each ability one at a time, as is tradition in games like these, and so players will have a bit of time to get used to each new mechanic. The downside to that, it seems, is that there are a lot of systems and controls to learn, some of which take time to get used to. There wasn’t much, if anything, that Tears of the Kingdom stopped Mahardy from doing over the hour-long play session. Polygon reviews editor Mike Mahardy went hands-on with Tears of the Kingdom in late March and toyed around with the limits of game the opportunities to exploit and challenge its systems seem endless. Nintendo hasn’t shown exactly what his arm does or how it works, but it does appear to have powers that will let players solve puzzles, manipulate the environment (and time itself), and use other special abilities, just like Breath of the Wild’s Sheikah Slate and Runes did. (Weapons can be fused together now, too!) In Tears of the Kingdom trailers, Link has a powerful, glowing green arm - the one that looks burnt in the February trailer. Link has a number of new weapons in a series of axes, swords, shields, and bows seen in the trailers so far, used to fight both familiar and new enemies. Nintendo hasn’t shown much extended gameplay of combat or puzzles, but we have seen new and expanded ways to travel through Hyrule. Then there’s a mysterious robed figure - maybe a Zonai king? - and the potential debut of a new race of creatures. The trailer introduced an elf-like princess who looks like Zelda, including the same jewelry. There are a lot of characters you’ll recognize, too: Lady Riju, Prince Sidon, Ganondorf, and (maybe) Tulin. ![]() On April 13, Nintendo shared a new trailer - the final one before Tears of the Kingdom’s May 12 release date - and revealed a whole bunch of new characters. Who are those new and returning characters? The Master Sword is impacted too, corrupted and melted. Malice spreads, pushing Hyrule Castle into the sky, and even attacking Link - his arm appears to be rotting with malice, all burnt up. In a trailer released in February, we see what looks to be Ganon’s corpse, maybe in its Ganondorf form, awakening. It seems to be a game of balance, and we’ll see how the joy of exploration, so essential in Breath of the Wild, mixes with the brooding storyline. Trailers for the game show Link and Zelda in dark dungeons, with malice forcing its way into the world, but also show bright lightness as Link glides between airborne islands. Visually (and tonally), Tears of the Kingdom is much darker than Breath of the Wild - at least in parts. If anything, some of what Nintendo has shown feels like misdirection. Much of the story is intentionally vague, and trailers don’t reveal much. ![]() The same is true of Tears of the Kingdom, which Nintendo describes as an “epic adventure across the land and skies of Hyrule.” Players will “harness the power of Link’s new abilities to fight back against the malevolent forces that threaten the kingdom,” Nintendo says. When it comes to Zelda games, Nintendo is not very forthcoming about the plot. What’s the story of Tears of the Kingdom?
