Daily Debate: Are You Binging Any Last Zelda Games Before the Release of Tears of the Kingdom?
Posted on May 03 2023 by Chakell Herbert
All this year, I have been prepping myself for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom‘s release! In preparation, I’ve played through Breath of the Wild and Ocarina of Time, and now I’m almost done with Skyward Sword.
These three of my all-time favorites seem like they will be most helpful regarding the lore behind Tears of the Kingdom (although all the games are a must) because they explain a lot of Ganondorf’s origins and focus on the relationship among the spirit of the hero, the princess of Hyrule, and the King of Evil himself. Also, looking at the latest trailer of Tears of the Kingdom and all the footage we’ve seen of this masterpiece of a game, I wouldn’t be surprised if there are locations in the sky that we have visited before in Skyward Sword. And I won’t be surprised if elements of that story are connected to this one. So I’m hoping to finish Skyward Sword before next week to keep my hype for this new release alive!
What about you? Are you playing any last-minute Zelda games to prepare for Tears of the Kingdom? Let me know in the comments!
