Nintendo confirmed to Eurogamer that the “Tears” in Tears of the Kingdom refers to teardrops, rather than a tear in paper, fabric, or the space-time continuum. Zelda Dungeon’s very own Rod Lloyd had all but determined this to be the case by examining the Japanese phonetics of the game’s title, where the word for tear as it relates to crying has a distinct pronunciation from the word meaning to tear something up. Regardless of the correct pronunciation, both meanings of…
After three long years, the highly anticipated follow-up to Breath of the Wild was finally given a name during Monday’s Nintendo Direct: Tears of the Kingdom. The newly announced title is certainly evocative; it has already re-energized the Zelda theory community and has even fueled speculation on Nintendo’s decision not to livestream the Direct in the UK. But perhaps the most puzzling Tears of the Kingdom development this week relates to the creation of the game’s dedicated subreddit. Not long…
I’m sure I wasn’t alone in having two major questions since the announcement of Breath of the Wild‘s sequel: “What is it called?” and “When can I play it?” On Tuesday, those questions were finally answered, and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom will be releasing on May 12th, 2023.

There’s quite a bit to unpack from the art, such as the states of Hyrule Castle, Death Mountain, and, from the logo, the Master Sword in…

One of my favorite pastimes in Breath of the Wild is climbing up to high places and seeing how far I can glide down. Sometimes when I come in for a landing, there are enemies to dispatch, and while airborne, there’s nothing better than whipping out my trusty bow to fell enemies before my feet ever touch the ground. The problem? Sometimes aiming and making sure the arrows fly true can get pretty awkward and frustrating. This is an especially…
I’m going to be honest. To date, I still haven’t collected all 900 Korok Seeds in Breath of the Wild. The hounding “Shame” scene in Game of Thrones rings in my ears at this very moment. However, a unique trick exists for finding all of those pesky seeds quite readily, and then some! Be wary, readers, as this technique is not for the faint of heart. In this recent video by glitch hunter GamingReinvented, we are able to witness a masterful…
Back in 2020, the internet was set ablaze when concept art for the long rumored Skeikah-inspired Zelda game from Retro Studios was discovered on the ArtStation account of Sammy Hall, a former pre-production concept artist for Retro.
