The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom game for the Nintendo
Switch family of systems launching Sept. 26 stars Zelda herself as
she attempts to uncover a mystery that threatens to take over the
entire Kingdom of Hyrule. This adventure sends her from one end of
the kingdom to another, from the arid desert of the Gerudo tribe to
the dense forest homes of the Deku Scrubs – but wait, you can see
for yourself in this new trailer here:

As rifts threaten to consume the kingdom, even Zelda’s
formidable wisdom may not be enough to solve the mystery on its
own. With the help of the ethereal creature Tri and the powerful
Tri Rod, Zelda gains the power to create echoes – imitations of
objects found in the environment. By echoing things from wooden
boxes to old beds, Zelda will be able to overcome obstacles and
solve puzzles. She can also create echoes to use in her defense
when faced with dangerous enemies – and then echo the enemies
themselves to fight by her side in later confrontations! Get even
more hints of what awaits Zelda as the mystery unfolds by
revisiting the original game announcement here:

Zelda’s journey will call upon her to traverse the expanse of
her kingdom (using waypoints and horseback to travel quickly).
Along the way, she will collect accessories and outfits to aid in
her mission (such as the ability to increase her swim speed), and
the chance to gather ingredients and blend them into smoothies that
give you different effects based on their ingredients – such as
replenishing health!
Zelda’s wisdom and player creativity are put to the test in The
Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom. With Tri’s help, Zelda will
utilize new powers to “Bind” and “Reverse Bond” objects – making
objects follow Zelda’s movements or allowing Zelda to follow a
creature’s movements, respectively – you can uncover hidden paths
or find multiple ways to overcome obstacles or solve puzzles. Make
a boulder “follow” you to open a hidden area or bind yourself to a
flying creature and temporarily take to the skies. It’s up to
you!
Mysterious rifts are overtaking Hyrule. What other challenges
will Zelda face in this grand adventure to save her kingdom?
