There’s a decades-old joke about whether the hero in The Legend of Zelda series is actually named after the eponymous character. In fact, it could be common for parents to mix up Zelda and Link, and that confusion will likely get worse when The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom launches next month.
Nintendo has revealed that the Hylian princess can enter a swordfighter form in a new trailer–seen below–for The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom. Not only does Zelda wield a sword and shield like Link in this transformation, she also sports a similar tunic and hat to the Hylian hero. This ability is unlocked once she discovers a mysterious sword. But, there’s a catch: There’s a gauge for how long she can stay in this form, which can be refilled by finding energy in the Still World.
Speaking of which, Nintendo also went in depth about the Still World, which is accessed by Zelda entering the purple rifts that sucked up Link. It’s an eerie place where Zelda will even find dungeons to explore. Last but not least, the video touches on some of the allies the princess will encounter on her adventure, like Dampe, who will build automatons for her.
Earlier this month, a Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom trailer showcased some of the familiar locations the game will offer players to visit. It also highlighted that the princess can ride around on a horse.
September is shaping up to be packed full of pleasant games like Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom. In addition, Nintendo is bringing back two of the best Link and Zelda Amiibo alongside the game. Plus, Best Buy has an adorable preorder bonus for the Switch exclusive, which releases September 26.
