Tears of the Kingdom's release date is still months away, but players have plenty of side quests in Breath of the Wild to spend time on until then. Nintendo's silence on TOTK and the trailers that don't reveal much information have led to players forming theories about what the next adventure in Hyrule might feature. Since the rumors rely heavily on speculation, it's possible that none of them will end up being true. However, it seems likely that there will be, at the very least, a connection to Skyward Sword in **The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom


Time and time travel are prominent aspects in Zelda games, even putting aside The Legend of Zelda series' split timelines , so it's far from outside the realm of possibility for it to show up in Tears of the Kingdom . Age of Calamity especially brings the possibility of time travel that much closer with its story of an alternate Great Calamity and a time-traveling robot. However, it's not certain that Link will travel to the past and stay there. There are other possibilities, such as short quests where Link is temporarily transported to the past, or ones where he experiences it as a flashback similar to the memories in BO


[Warning: This article contains spoilers for Skyward Sword and Breath of the Wild.] So-called Breath of the Wild 2 until recently, Tears of the Kingdom is continuing Link's journey after the defeat of Calamity Ganon. Not much is known about Tears of the Kingdom , but it's expected to be open-world like Breath of the Wild . As for the story and villains, there are only rumors and theories about whom the newest threat to Hyrule is and why the trailer seems to feature Zonai writ


There are a few primary pieces of evidence for time travel in Tears of the Kingdom 's new trailer. One of them is the two different outfits that Link wears, both of which have appeared in past trailers. In the beginning of the new trailer, Link appears to have an improved version of the Champion's Tunic from BOTW , and is carrying a sword on his back. Later, when he's shown climbing some roots, he wears a green, one-sleeved outfit, and is carrying a much more primitive-looking wooden cudgel. While different outfits aren't really hard evidence, they seem to be portrayed with a sense of duality that may indicate that Link wears them in two different time peri


After the reveal of **The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom ** , it didn't take long for theories and rumors about the trailers to surface. Nintendo switch 2 controversy has done its best to keep the information given in trailers to a minimum, but the hidden details have been more than enough to spark rumors. While some rumors don't hold much weight, others have enough credence to possibly be included in Tears of the Kingdom when it launc


If Tears of the Kingdom involves time travel as Zelda fans have already begun to theorize, it’s possible that Link and Zelda will need to access the Sacred Realm, Dark World, or both in order to defeat Calamity Ganon once and for all. The Sacred Realm has already been shown to be capable of enabling time travel, as previously shown in Twilight Princess and Ocarina of Time . However, it’s also possible that the Dark World’s evil would prevent such a feat if it is, in fact, corrupted by Ganon’s malice, which may require players to restore the legendary Golden Land once more. Link and Zelda’s quest to save Hyrule may take them through multiple mystical realms in **Tears of the Kingdom ** , but players will have to wait until the game’s release next year to know for cert

Another possibility is that Tears of the Kingdom will bring BOTW 's story full circle with its time travel. 10,000 years ago, Ganon was defeated by an unnamed hero and princess, and while they were never identified in-game, it's a safe assumption that they were iterations of Link and Zelda based on their descriptions and the pair's intertwined destiny with Ganon. However, it's possible that the Link from BOTW and the one from 10,000 years ago are one and the same if time travel is indeed prevalent in TOTK . It's even possible that BOTW 's Zelda is the princess and that she and Link get sent back in time together, in which case Zelda could be a playable character in TO


Zelda: TOTK 's pronunciation was clarified by Nintendo to be tears as in crying, not as in ripping something, according to Eurogamer . The title seems to indicate some kind of great tragedy or disaster, though the exact nature of it is difficult to predict. There are a number of different ways Tears of the Kingdom can be interpreted, however, and the title's relationship with the game's story could be something completely unexpected. It could also be meant completely figuratively, and correlate to some aspect of the world or gameplay instead of the story, the same way that Breath of the Wild 's title represents its vast open wo


Fans of The Legend of Zelda are likely familiar with the Sacred Realm as this spiritual space housed the Triforce for much of Hyrule’s history. The Sacred Realm was particularly important in Ocarina of Time as Link and Zelda’s quest required them to access the Sacred Realm in an attempt to stop Ganondorf from claiming the Triforce’s power. Once opened, however, the Sacred Realm was invaded by Ganondorf, who stole the Triforce and caused it to shatter into three pie
