With The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom right around the corner, an artist shared a scene from the game’s debut trailer in Tears of the Kingdom‘s art style. The scene from the upcoming Echoes of Wisdom that the artist chose was a conversation between some green and blue Zora that Zelda will witness in her quest to find Link and drive back the void that has overtaken Hyrule.
Though Echoes of Wisdom will not be released until September 26, that has not stopped the momentum the game has built since its debut in June’s Nintendo Direct. As the first mainline game in the series to feature the titular Princess Zelda as the main playable character, Echoes of Wisdom also sees the return of the top-down perspective camera angle, which last appeared in the 2019 remake of Link’s Awakening. As Zelda, players must use the Tri-Rod to create echoes of various objects and enemies to overcome challenges and solve puzzles throughout Hyrule. Due to the positive response from fans, Echoes of Wisdom quickly became one of the most wanted games of 2024.
