Yesterday, we were all treated to a new trailer announcing the name for Nintendo’s upcoming Legend of Zelda sequel.
Along with finally getting its name revealed – Tears of the Kingdom – we also got some new footage. And where there is new footage, you can be sure that Eurogamer’s Ed Nightingale and I will not be far behind with our theories about what it all means for the next instalment in the Zelda series.
So, we have teamed up to bring you our thoughts on this new trailer below – and to discuss the little things you may have missed on a first pass. Without further ado, let’s get stuck in.
Victoria: Hello Ed, my fellow Zelda-nerd. Are you ready to talk all about why The Legend of Zelda Hy-rules and help break down that new teaser for Breath of the Wild’s sequel?
Ed: I’m not sure I’ll ever be ready, but let’s skydive in. What did you make of yesterday’s trailer?
Victoria: First of all, “skydive in” just made me snort laugh! Secondly, I think this trailer actually tells us a lot more than first meets the eye. Those carvings / murals at the start seem to tell a good chunk of potential backstory.
