5-minute Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom trailer shows new locations and abilities
The Zelda-led adventure is out next month
Nintendo has released a new trailer for The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom.
The trailer opens by showing some of the game’s locations, including Gerudo Desert, Jabul Waters, Eldin Volcano and Faron Wetlands.
It then shows off the game’s Adventure Log, and how main and side quests are saved to it as they’re encountered.
Other features shown in the trailer include quick-travel waypoints and the ability to ride a horse.
The trailer also introduces smoothie shops, which are run by Business Scrubs. Zelda can use these to blend collected ingredients into drinks that have different effects.
Zelda can also equip different outfits and accessories to change her abilities. These changes are also reflected in Zelda’s on-screen appearance.
A new ability called Bind is introduced. By using this, Zelda can ‘attach’ objects to herself and make them follow her movements. By using Bind on a giant boulder, for example, Zelda can move sideways to move the boulder in that direction too.
Zelda can also use an ability called Reverse Bond which has the opposite effect, and has her copying the movements of another object or creature. If she can’t climb a wall, for example, she can use Reverse Bond on a spider and as it climbs the wall, she’ll follow.
The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom will be released on September 26, alongside a new Zelda edition Nintendo Switch Lite console.
