Hyrule is described as a sprawling, vibrant land. At the center of a great field is Hyrule Castle, surrounded by a bustling town. Regions in Hyrule include Gerudo Desert, Faron Wetlands, Eldin Volcano, and Jabul Waters. Each location features its own denizens.
The trailer begins with Link being stolen into the ground by a rift. And rifts are forming everywhere: even the King falls victim! Zelda, left alone, meets a cute creature (Tri) who gifts her the magical Tri Rod. Using it, create imitations of things known as echoes that can be later used anytime. Create echoes of everything from beds to monsters.
Tri also gives Zelda the gift of Bind, an ability that allows Zelda to match some objects to her movements. Reverse Bond is the opposite: Zelda can "bond" to some objects and follow their movement. In addition to using the Tri Rod, Zelda is quite happy to pick up a sword to clear blocked entrances, fight monsters on her own, and fight amongst her echoes. Unfortunately, she is limited by a time gauge. Once it's up, she can no longer stay in Swordfighting Form. The gauge can be filled by collecting energy in the Still World. There is also a horse, lots of handmade smoothies, and a variety of outfits when help is needed.
From Nintendo, The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom will be released on September 26 exclusively for Nintendo Switch.
