After a long time without knowing anything, the Japanese company showed quite a lot of footage of the expected game, and among this we could see a mechanic that will be the main element of everything: <strong>the combination<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With the voice of the charismatic <strong>Eiji Aonuma<\/strong>, producer of the game, in the background, the trailer explained what we could do with this combination. The summary is simple: <strong>practically any element that appears in the game can be combined<\/strong>. It&#8217;s as easy as that. For example, during the gameplay a mushroom is placed on a shield, so that when the enemy hits it a <strong>cloud of smoke<\/strong> is generated. Similarly, you also take a branch from the ground and connect a stone to turn it into a mace. And that&#8217;s it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed-Youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom \u2013 Mr. Aonuma Gameplay Demonstration\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/a6qna-ZCbxA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Almost half of the gameplay is focused on this mechanic. It&#8217;s not without reason, as you can even see how to combine several logs and a turbine to <strong>create a boat<\/strong>. And best of all, they&#8217;ve already said that we&#8217;ll be able to craft aerial elements, cars and much more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With all this behind us, the only thing that comes to this writer&#8217;s mind is that <strong>the next Zelda is social media fodder<\/strong>. If with Breath of the Wild we already saw some really crazy activities, everything points to the fact that this Tears of the Kingdom is going to give a twist to that concept.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Breath of the Wild is just a fucking insane game to show people who don&#39;t play video games <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/ZDCIxUujlZ\">pic.twitter.com\/ZDCIxUujlZ<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Crimson Mayhem (@Crimson_Mayhem_) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Crimson_Mayhem_\/status\/1637279299391635456?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 19, 2023<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nintendo is not stupid. Well you&#8217;ve seen the videos that have circulated of the previous Zelda, what better than to offer even more freedom when it comes to approaching a situation? The way to face an obstacle is going to offer more possibilities than ever before. The combination is not only a new mechanic: <strong>it is the central axis of this Zelda in terms of design<\/strong>. Plus, we have to keep in mind that we&#8217;re now going airborne, so &#8220;crafting&#8221; flying objects will be essential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I don&#8217;t know if I&#8217;m more eager for Tears of the Kingdom to come out and play it myself or to see what people do with the game. Probably the latter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Link&#8217;s new game comes out in just over a month and a half.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9091,"featured_media":219616,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","wpcf-pageviews":0},"categories":[1018,1015],"tags":[],"usertag":[],"vertical":[],"content-category":[],"class_list":["post-219613","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-gaming","category-news"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/219613","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9091"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=219613"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/219613\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":321328,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/219613\/revisions\/321328"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/219616"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=219613"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=219613"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=219613"},{"taxonomy":"usertag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/usertag?post=219613"},{"taxonomy":"vertical","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/vertical?post=219613"},{"taxonomy":"content-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/content-category?post=219613"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
