The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom Official Announcement Trailer | Nintendo Direct 2024

It's up to Princess Zelda to save Hyrule in a brand-new The Legend of Zelda story.
The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom launches September 26th on Nintendo Switch!

[@brandigenousviii98]

Finally The Legend of Link

[@orphen923]

Nope, still Legend of Zelda somehow... unfortunate. If only men got more recognition in Hyrule 😂

[@Konuvis]

Best comment!

[@winboyjlg]

You're right😂

[@VanitasYoutube]

god comment

[@Montyandrew45]

Link is now the damsel in destress lol

[@JohnRDVSMarston]

When the Legend of Zelda is truly about Zelda's legend

[@mniakan754]

Then by Nintendo’s own standards it should be called thelegend of Link

[@Prene16]

To be fair in both botw and totk, her influence in the world and her role in defeating the evil was on legendary levels.

[@Rick-si1re]

lol Yup, kind of of "echoes" (find the pun) what I said just now, any way yeah, the sword will be missed though............this is like the third Zelda game we've gotten where it's not totally about the sword.............*sighs* some things kind of don't need to change.

[@toonbat]

"You've killed me! And then brought me back as an echo to do your bidding!" "Good!"

[@nickholcomb2220]

“good!😊”

[@Mehp2]

YES! Someone made the reference!

[@l-wolverine2211]

Time for Zelda to Get Her Sheik On

[@MrVariant]

Would be nice if you could fight directly rather than play ikea manager as someone would say 😂. Could do worse though

[@TheSemajshadow]

Disappointed it's not called "the legend of link"

[@Qwhill101]

missed opportunity

[@KyleEvra]

😂

[@OmnicidalClown1992]

First, Princess Peach gets her own game on the Switch, and now Zelda is getting one on the Switch as well.

[@suziebarfield1796]

Peach had already had her own game

[@kestrel9994]

​@@suziebarfield1796to be fair Zelda has had a game as well. But no one remembers the Philip CD-i.

​@@kestrel9994 I do! And the two Zelda games for it.

Well excuuuuuuuse you I need to look that one up

[@JakeSmith-mq5dc]

Actually, Arzette: The Jewel of Faramore is the spiritual successor. They even got Link and Zelda voicing the trailer

[@titansoftime]

@@JakeSmith-mq5dc Watched the Game Grumps playthrough, it actually looked pretty good!

[@wlb2j]

I appreciate ALLLL of this comment.

[@Normal-Lad]

I can't wait for everyone to speculate where this is on the timeline. It looks exactly like, awakening link, which could imply he's the same as the link to the past

[@bossbattlegordy6963]

That legit looks like the inside of the pyramid in the golden land. And she’s in a maiden crystal. Map is familiar too. Could be LttP timeline.

[@MrBeiragua]

Yeah, but there are deku scrubs, and gerudos, so I guess it's more like in the ocarina of time section.

[@Carnage7209]

Didn't look like the master sword either, more like the goddess sword

[@Normal-Lad]

@MrBeiragua honestly I don't think which enemies show up has ever been a good indicator of which timeline were in , each game just chooses enemies based off of the game play. Like several emimies didnt exist in botw just to show up in tears of the kingdom later

[@bossbattlegordy6963]

All good points! I love the anticipation and speculation part. 😂 just as you said. I’ll be looking forward to additional trailers.

[@Jessica-si5wo]

Link: what took you so long?? Zelda: now you understand 😂

[@vidyavachhani9652]

HOLY MOLY DO WE SAVE LINK

[@firstonscene1459]

That's the games purpose to save link

[@contra4892]

The narrator said Zelda sets off to save her kingdom. She don’t care bout link. He stuck in the friend zone

Zelda: necromancer edition.. Sold...

[@Vladutz.19]

Ahaha. You can raise the dead. Oops, sorry. You can create... "echoes" of enemies. ;) In all seriousness, this game does look awesome.

[@MenilaPaper]

A missed opportunity to name it "a missing link"

[@maxdv4063]

I really like this new gameplay mechanic. Seems very transformative, especially given that Zelda is the protagonist.

[@labrynianrebel]

"change the world, my final message, goodbye" - Link, probably

[@nininits6925]

My first Zelda was phantom hourglass ⌛, feels like a come back to it

[@mike48931]

Is there an echo for a sword

[@jasonpowell291]

Lol

[@LittleImpaler]

Probably not.

[@viscountsb7140]

PLEASE tell me there'll be a Sheik transformation

[@TheAginG420]

I'm old and have been a gamer for a very long time. The writing on the wall says, no. I don't believe that's going to be a part of this game. It'd be cool if I was wrong.

[@viscountsb7140]

@@TheAginG420 yeah I'm thinking you're right :/

[@springv1615]

in the next 38 years we should get a tloz where you play as ganondorf

[@RadiantGamer113]

It probably be once in life time

[@varic4638]

I know you are joking but I feel that I would prefer playing gammon than Zelda cause who wouldn’t want to play as Ganon with Matthew Mercer as their voice actor.

[@oriongurtner7293]

That’s just Hyrule Warriors with less steps

[@brianclarke8503]

I was pleasantly surprised by this game, definitely looking forward to it!

[@Virgoicon98]

PLAYABLE ZELDAAAAA LFGGGG

[@linksstruepower7443]

Link defeats Ganon and saves Zelda so fast, there's enough time in the game dor Zelda to finally get to be a hero.

[@oriongurtner7293]

Nintendo got so mad at everyone speed-running BotW and TotK that they just said “Fine! You wanna know what happens when Link fights Ganon without doing the actual quest? _THIS_ is what happens! Have fun stacking _BEDS!”_ and accidentally churned out a meme masterpiece in the process

[@johncrain9772]

This definitely looks interesting. At first I thought it was going to be a remake of the Oracale duology, but I’m excited to play this.

[@neoroger510]

I wished it was a remake of Oracle... Anyways, we'll see if this one's worthy

[@Ixmore]

Speaking of remake, I expect a demake of this game.

[@Просто_Иван]

Link: The Faces of Evil 2

[@tyrannysend]

It's actually zelda's adventure 2, because it's topdown. The most forgotten cdi game that doesn't even have a pc-remaster and it wasn't memed so much. I want another sidescroller zelda game/zeldavania(like zelda 2) so much, but probably not in my lifetime.

[@burushifudara]

Zelda, the Wand of Gamelon 2

[@noldorwarrior7791]

"After you scrub all the floors in Hyrule, then we can talk about mercy"

[@justanother2sday]

I hope in the final battle we get to echo Link so they are together ❤️

[@FL-uj7cs]

She should have her smash moveset lol

[@Playswithsquirrels311]

I’m really excited! A little sad she won’t be able to use a sword from the looks of it but I’ll give it a go!

[@marconihimself]

You know whats brilliant about this? It merges the sandbox style experience of the new 3d games with the semi linear game design of the classic titles. Once again, the kind of brilliance you come to expect from nintendo.

[@kylecorrales9962]

At least he's left handed again

[@trx38]

„He“ is princess Zelda.

[@viktorthevictor6240]

​@trx38 Link is in the trailer

[@SavageMatrix9]

I wish they could have brought midna back

[@tehmidgenator2377]

That would be awesome but they really tied her story off with a bow.

[@lukebytes5366]

This peace is what all true warriors strive for!

[@aaliyahrosado7365]

Good luck Princess Zelda!

[@hufflepuffleshuffle]

This looks amazing!!! Can’t wait to play!!!

[@hufflepuffleshuffle]

And as a side note, since they’re using the same art style they used for the Link’s Awakening remake, it would be AMAZING if they remade the Oracle games!!!

[@mauricio2589]

"This is some kind of legend, Zelda?" "Say that again?"

[@Firestorm-Peter]

Oh heck yeah, The Legend of Furniture.

[@Wrewdie]

I'm already hopeful about a sequel showing what Link's going through while he's in the alternate dimension.

[@telesticHarlequin]

i dont think you need a sequel for that when the game itself can simply tie things up satisfactorily

[@Wrewdie]

@@telesticHarlequin it definitely can, but a sequel would be able to go into more detail, and it would be more Zelda. Who doesn't want more Zelda?! lol

[@Dpdakid93]

I would love a Zelda game about Gondorf and how he became who he is !

[@asiajordan3206]

yeah like an alternate universe where he's the good guy and link's the villian or something like that

[@The_Dying_Rose]

Legend of link is looking crazy

[@m.anders6801]

give us twilight princess 2 or wind waker 2

[@agsdedluxferre2955]

I like that they went with Zelda's theme of "wisdom" rather than just putting her in Link's role of "courage" very excited for this title!

[@pyit.876]

I hope it could reach the greatness of wand of gamalon and zelda's adventure

[@gradyshmalady8284]

I've always loved this art direction, it looks so adorable and inviting. I can't wait to use these new mechanics too. They look like they're gonna be fun.

[@laytex134]

We gonna talk about all the models taken from ocarina and even the Deku Salesman from Majora's Mask

[@kerrybarneyiii1202]

🤨 huh? This is completely different art style lol, do you mean from Link’s Awakening, like MM used OoT’s assets?

[@viktorthevictor6240]

​@@kerrybarneyiii1202 You know there's a difference between assets and models? He literally said deku salesman. That's a character from Majora's Mask, just in a different style here

[@kerrybarneyiii1202]

@viktorthevictor6240 what in the world are you on about lol, game assets include character models. And are you saying that because a character’s name/lore is the same it’s the same model? No sir, the model is the *model* of a character (it’s kind of in the name?) that you see; this Link is not the same model as the Link in BotW, but he’s the same character! But the mask salesman in OoT is the same model as the one in MM, as are a lot of models, even if they’re not the same character

[@cwavygaming6615]

Looks like this takes place in the same Timeline as a link between worlds

[@someguy8081]

After 38 years, you can finally play as Zelda in the legend of Zelda.

[@marconihimself]

I absolutely love this art style and is a great follow up for the remake of links awakening.

Finally, a Zelda game that’s actually about Zelda. So now, when will we be able to play as Ganon

[@lawsontake7383]

Tri rod? Erm... what the wand of gamelon ?

[@Dotcom991]

There it is, the legend of Zelda herself

[@legosam2067]

Finally, a game where the title makes sense

[@TheRadicalDude.]

This Is The Legend Of Link Now!

[@oriongurtner7293]

I’m so convinced that this is an upmake of Zelda’s Adventure that I’m calling it now: they’re gonna use rupees as the primary component for Zelda’s magic/summoning abilities It’s gonna happen, that’s why the rupee counter isn’t in the UI yet

[@Bryan19777]

I really need to get a switch. I have a Series X and a PS5. The last Nintendo I bought was the Wii. I have some Metroid and Zelda games to catch up on. You would think by now Nintendo would come to PC already. I mean everything else is on PC.

[@chicagodouble-doinkers1716]

It feels like the story of botw and Totk is left open I wish there was one more game to tie it all together

[@bass-brigade]

If the battle between Gannon and link is playable, then they took the time to built out combat for Link in the engine, and we will surely play more than just this scene as Link. They have no hearts, weapons, or items on the screen, so it could just be a prologue. Makes me wonder if there are other modes, or if you will switch between the two.

[@plsrember]

They should have just did this with tears of the Kingdom

[@MICHAELHIRST]

Indeed

[@DJSerpent]

they could of but the story was so bad.

[@ericgallardo098]

Shu7 up

[@krex44]

Botw totk were sooooo bad

[@generaltechnomage306]

So, which timeline does this take place in? I'm betting that it's in the Downfall Timeline.

[@TierRune]

It looked like a recreation of the overworld from LttP, so it's possible.

[@generaltechnomage306]

@@TierRune I knew it. Also, at what point in the Downfall Timeline would it take place in?

[@TierRune]

@@generaltechnomage306 Probably depends on whether or not it's meant to be a sequel to Link to the Past or Link Between Worlds. Either way, I would speculate between Link to the Past and Link's Awakening.

[@Pedrofiliac]

So cool that they're making 3ds games again

[@sethlangston181]

Zelda: (echoes a Torch block in a boss room) Phantom Ganon: You dare bring light into my lair!? You must die!!

[@Bongoagain]

So how long before we get a strong Zelda like in the last game?

[@sfighter0085]

Looks great. Basically this is "Zelda: The Wand of Gamalon" and "Zelda's Adventure" done right and by Nintendo themselves. Definitely looking like they're thinking outside the box on this one. Will be looking forward to this one.

[@leonardcoppin9120]

I'm excited to play as Princess Zelda finally. I've always been a huge fan of the legend of Zelda franchise. Playing as Zelda herself is going to be amazing. Only thing that could beat my excitement for echoes of wisdom is if they finally do a remastered or remake of Zelda ocarina Of Time with unreal engine 5. 😅

[@chicagodouble-doinkers1716]

I wish that they kept around the same botw and totk story and game style

[@King_Shuni]

Would’ve been more interesting if they gave us this same concept but in the past of tears of the kingdom where Zelda fought besides rauru or gives the great deku Tee the master sword

[@Dope_Stories]

It kinda looks like it's I'm the same world as botw and tok ... if you notice link is holding a zonai bow
