The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom

Release Date: September 26, 2024

Official description: After Princess Zelda was captured by Ganon, the swordsman Link stormed in to rescue her. After a fierce battle, Link appeared to defeat the villain, but was suddenly dragged down into a mysterious rift in the ground and disappeared. These strange rifts began to appear all over Hyrule, swallowing up others, including the King and his advisors. Left alone, it’s now up to Princess Zelda to save her kingdom in a brand-new adventure in the Legend of Zelda series!

Team up with the ethereal creature, Tri, and use the powerful Tri Rod to create “echoes”—imitations of things you will find in the world—to solve puzzles and defeat enemies.

Use echoes like water blocks to reach new heights, make bridges out of old beds, throw rocks at foes—or find your own creative combination of echoes to do things your way. Just press [ZR] to learn an echo, then press [Y] to make one. You can then press [ZR] again to erase it or hold down [ZR] to erase all echoes you’ve made on the field. Easy!

You can even make echoes of monsters to fight at your side and give those baddies a taste of their own medicine!
