Nintendo has posted a new trailer for The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom, which introduces various facets, including the Still World. In this world, within the rifts, trees, fragments of land, people, and other items swallowed by the rifts float through the void.
Exploration here requires Zelda to traverse floating terrain, making the Echoes immensely useful for investigation. Dungeons are also present throughout the Still World, with their own bosses.
Moreover, Zelda’s Swordfighter form has been introduced, enabling direct attacks against foes, even while summoned Echoes are battling. However, this transformation is timed. Energy gathered from the Still World can replenish the sword’s gauge.
The trailer also introduces the returning Dampe, an inventor who creates automatons that instill potent effects when thrown.
The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom will be released for Nintendo Switch on September 26, 2024.
Strange rifts have appeared across Hyrule, taking away many, including Link. Zelda meets a fairy called Tri, who gives her the Tri Rod to save her kingdom. Zelda can create imitations of objects called echoes, letting her recreate them whenever she likes. This will be used for creative puzzle-solving.
Echoes of monsters can be made, too, and they can help you during combat
