A Link Between Worlds isn't a remake. It's a sequel to A Link to the Past. EDIT: Also, we've seen the Sheikah in top down Zelda - Impa has been in several games.

We have seen the sea zora and Deku scrubs in topdown Zelda, in the Oracle games

I dunno why but the "play ad Zelda" bit gave me Super Princess Peach vibes.... heres hoping its better than that game

Something I haven't seen any youtuber point out yet, the snowy mountain is almost confirmed to be Hebra because that's what it was called in ALTTP and ALBW. It being called Death Mountain is the western translation. So the "new" mountain on the left is actually Death Mountain, which is its actual first time appearing in the ALTTP world

I look forward to it not being Breath of the Wild for a 3rd time

What in the fuxk

My only question about Gerudo Town is why would Zelda have to sneak into it? Unless it’s sealed off to all Hylians for some reason, she should just be able to walk in.

It truly is heavily based on ALTTP The cave on lake hylia's island even has the island west of it that you could access a heart piece on by using the magic mirror God i cant wait for this game

Wait so if the Triforce of wisdom was hidden by Zelda in those eight labyrinths then what are those monsters doing in there? Are they Ganons minions looking for the Triforce? If so they should have used keys lol

I'm so READY to play this Zelda this September!

Makes so much sense. You can keep Link, keep the feel, but finally leave Hyrule behind. MMORPGs are constantly adding new places and lands to go. Zelda needs to take a page and bring back that feeling of newness. Hyrule is great and all but I think most people have the standard places like Death Mountain, and Hyrule Castle, and the Gerudo Dessert, etc practically commited to memory. People are ready to explore new lands.

Can't they just solve all of this by creating an "unlock" system for these open worlds? It would like like: Doing A,B,and C unlocks D, E, F, and G. You can still visit H, I , J, K, but without key plot points activated or characters having an activation at an earlier place or key items obtained, then the locations of H, I, J, K are effectively inert or maybe in the case of a dungeon: sealed. Games have done this for years with keys and in 2D mazes, there is no reason why you cannot have parts of a 3D world completely off limits and call it open if the main landmass is still 70% open to start with (not including the dungeons). Am I stating the obvious? I feel like you can start semi or even mostly open and unlock the story chronologically simply because each major reveal only happens when you complete the previous "packet" of adventuring that was active/not-inert on the world map. Am I just stating the obvious or is this wording helpful?

I hope they making dlc

Do you think nintendo is making a sequel? They lied they didnt doing a sequel to botw but they did

In anticipation I'm replaying alttp and albw. About halfway through alttp now. Might even play the elusive ww/tp as well on wii u if there's time.

I wonder if the "Morse Code Stones" can also act as a fast charge for Tri once activated?

Nice Video ! Sub & Big Like ! And Love Zelda Games !

I wish they (Camelot) would make a Golden Sun game using Echoes of Wisdom as a blueprint and the same art style

I got money on the fact that when you go into the dark you play as link to level up zelda.... bet on it!

30-50%? I think it will be bigger. Think of how blown away we all were by the scope of Breath. It's easy to forget, now, that we've had Tears - which sort-of tripled the size of Breath - but with huge empty spaces in the sky, and lots of copy-paste, didn't feel all that much bigger. But Breath was so much bigger than previous 3D games, and felt so real and deep, it was a genuine game changer. That's going to be their goal with the first new top-down Zelda game since then, and with the simpler top-down model, there is no reason they can't do something that will take our breath away and bring us to tears when we realize how big this game world really is.

so I was curious about what the -•- symbol could mean, and you mentioned Morse code. So in english Morse code it's the letter R, but in Japanese Morse code it's the symbol for Na. Quick google research told me that adding Na to the end of a sentence is meant to convey emphasis or emotion, and in other situations it's meant to leave the sentence open to discussion (like saying "the food is good, right?") So I think it's meant to be like a Morse code version of an exclamation point symbol.

I hope the overworld is much bigger than we expect. Like 5 times the size of ALTTP. Either way, it's going to be super fun.

I'm very excited for this game.

Damn this looks like the lamest looking game ever! I'm glad that I gave up on Nintendo years ago... I would still be waiting for a proper Zelda...yikes...

The sea Zora aren't new to top down Zelda. There were a few in the Oracle games

Already knew from the trailer that it was superior to TOTK

Fantastic video! This is such an exciting time :) Here are some rambly thoughts of mine whilst watching... As you said, snow was not present in Hyrule in the ALINKs but was its interesting to note Lorule's Death Mtn was snowy. The trailer shot w/ Business Scrub seems to show Death Mountain being RIGHT UP AGAINST Kakariko, like closer even than in Ocarina of Time. I wonder are the Lost Woods now between Volcanic Death Mountain and the Snowy Mountains - perhaps that big hazy tree area far beyond the Castle in the cliff-view shot? I'm sure we are getting an actual coastline where those spiky monsters are hey, something like FSA has - I'd love it to lead to some sort of hint of the Village of the Blue Maiden. We've now had that, TP's Hidden Village, and the OPENAIR's combo of Hateno AND Japanese-Kakariko taking suburban(?) Hyrule and the legacy of Kakariko in different directions. Thoughts on the Deku Tree being somewhere beyond the Lost Woods... or possibly in Flute Boy's little tree haven? Those river shops really remind me of Oracle of Seasons' Sunken Village. Imagine if the Anouki showed up on the NE mountain!

So excited for this game Curious to see how open air gameplay fits in a 2D plane

And the most important thing is bigger isn't even better, if its dense it does not matter.

I still think this is a game they released to hold us over cuz they got something bigger on the way

The Deku are in MC.

I'm excited to hop on top of trees. Really exemplifies the open-nature, boundary pushing element of this game. EofW is to LttP as BotW was to OoT... or so we can hope!

I was disappointed we didn’t get to play as Zelda in TOTK.

This bigger map got me thinking, I wounder how open Nintendo is to a reimagining of the Oracle games in that it would be silly to remake the Oracle two or even three games if you want to count secrets when you can take the idea and some of the mechanics of the Oracle games and have it take place across two or three expansive kingdoms right next to each other.

The thing I’m most looking forward to in Echoes of Wisdom is playing as Zelda.

I hope this game isn’t too easy because of “hacked” exploration.

I don't entirely know what I want, yet, but there are several things I have wanted, and this game is offering. I have long wanted a Zelda game to give me Ganon back. Not Gdorf; a human-looking person with human desires, and ambitions, but the pg demon sorcerer monster who is evil because he is. He's bringing the Trident of Power back, instead of some sword, and won't just be one middle phase in a sprawling Gdorf fight. LttP is still my favorite Zelda game, so going to to even just something like it is great, and will scratch my nostalgia itch, after so many years of Tears, Wild, and Skyward Sword being "the Zelda games. There were others, sure, and I really liked LBW, but I can honestly say it's been a long time since Twilight Princess, and that was my last great main console Zelda game. I also like that, even being top-down, it won't totally abandon the sky, as a dimension, and it will also be a bit puzzly, if you will. I enjoyed Oracle of Ages for its more puzzle focus, and I think this one will be fun for that, too. I really did hope for Tears to at least have a segment where we used Zelda, and could cover some of the "leveling up" of a sequel, instead of burning Link back down in hearts, and acting like he didn't do so much, and thus didn't have so much of his gear, again, in a direct sequel, but getting a whole game where we use her, instead of just saving her, making her a gimmick, like on Spirit Tracks, or calling the game Wand of Gamelon, is also something that I hope to love.

I hope we can play as Zelda without the cape on. I feel like they made her wear this so the game doesn’t come across too girly and would appeal to boys more

With how much they're revisiting ALttP Hyrule, I really want then to explore Zelda 1/Zelda IT'S Hyrule at some point (although without the zoomed out world aspect). Preferably a new 2D Hyrule would be perfection, but why not bring back the OG Hyrule for at least one more entry.

What if the rifts are the the dream world from links’s awakening

Aside from puzzles and new equipment, maybe an underworld and sky islands would be a nice touch.

Not a game that I would play. Definitely not for me. I don’t want anything but link. Anybody who wants to play it is more than welcome to. I don’t really see this game selling that much.

I've been wanting a top-down Zelda game with various races introduced in the 3d games present, and I'm ecstatic we seem to finally be getting that. Two types of zora, sheikah, gerudo, and deku scrubs are all confirmed. Gorons are all but confirmed with the settlement we can see on Death Mountain. And I wouldn't be surprised if we finally see Rito in a top-down game in the Hebra region.

Rinku no Densetsu: Chie no Karimono

I just want items back for Link and good dungeons and maybe good lore but we can't ask for much from Nintendo nowadays

I want this NOW

At 8:47 you said Tri had 3 triangles, where there's actually 4. Take a closer look at the shadows underneath Tri! I love this content, thanks so much for the in-depth work you do 😍🤝

@commonwealthrealm honestly, we have seen these areas before. The expanded areas are in the original Legend of Zelda map. This game like, ALTTP and ALBW, takes place in what would be the Gerudo Desert in BOTW. My prediction is that in the snow covered we will find Spectacle Rock.

👍👍👍

Maybe you can play as Zelda in the Second quest of this game after defeating ganon
