*While almost everything in the world shown thus far is identical, a ledge can now be seen on top of [[Kanalet Castle]], allowing Link to jump off. This is a quality of life improvement, allowing quick access for Link to leave the castle, as opposed to having to backtrack through the dungeon, as was required beforehand{{Ref|Nintendo Direct Reveal Trailer 02-13-2019 (1:05)}}. The entrance to [[Bottle Grotto]] has one of the flowers replaced with a heavy rock, making it possible to re-enter the dungeon after returning [[BowWow]]. | *While almost everything in the world shown thus far is identical, a ledge can now be seen on top of [[Kanalet Castle]], allowing Link to jump off.
