The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom Gets Deep Dive in Traversing Hyrule Trailer – IGN

Nintendo has revealed a five minute deep dive into The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom in the Traversing Hyrule trailer.

Available below, the trailer highlights key locations of the Zelda-led game such as Hyrule Castle and the surrounding Castle Town, and even reveals the different regions of the world: Gerudo Desert, Jabul Waters, Eldin Volcano, and Faron Wetlands.

Players can travel around the world quickly using fast travel points called Waypoints, though as standard these are only available once the player reaches each location naturally. Horses are also available to ride around Hyrule and can be called upon at any time once the player unlocks the carrot echo (meaning the ability to summon a carrot; what a game).

Mechanics from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and sequel Tears of the Kingdom have made the jump to Echoes of Wisdom too. Players can mix and match ingredients, for example, but instead of doing this through cooking they create smoothies which can have different effects. Dressing up Zelda in different items of clothing also comes with unique benefits.

The abilities of Zelda’s companion Tri were also shown off, namely Bind and Reverse Bind. The former lets Zelda force objects to follow her movements, and was used in the trailer to move a large boulder from her path, while the latter does the opposite! Players can force Zelda to mimic the movement of an object, for example to fly using a bird’s path.
