Nintendo revealed a brand-new 2D Legend of Zelda game in their most recent Nintendo Direct, called The Legend of Zelda: Echoes Of Wisdom. Except this time around, you play as Princess Zelda instead of Link, and instead of using a sword, she uses a tri-rod, a mysterious tool that allows her to make duplicates, or echoes, of different objects in the land of Hyrule, and use them for traversal, puzzle-solving, and combat.
The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom will be released for Nintendo Switch on September 26, 2024.
Save the kingdom of Hyrule – this time with the wisdom of Princess Zelda – in The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom for Nintendo Switch.
The people of Hyrule are being stolen away by strange rifts that have appeared, and with a certain swordsman among those missing, it’s up to Princess Zelda to save her kingdom.
Team up with the mysterious fairy, Tri, and use the power of the Tri Rod to learn how to create echoes, imitations of things found in the environment. You can then recreate those echoes whenever you like to solve puzzles and defeat enemies.
Create echoes like water blocks to reach new heights, make bridges out of old beds, throw rocks at foes, or find your own creative combination of echoes to do things your way. You can even create echoes of monsters to fight at your side in combat!
