The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom: Difference between revisions

Line 511:
* [[Multi-Mook Melee]]: {{spoiler|Before you take on Ganondorf, you (and potentially the Sages, if you've awakened them) have to cut your way through an army of monsters that he summons once you arrive at his doorstep. It's very similar to the army of Bokoblins you cut down before the final fight with Ghirahim in ''Skyward Sword'', except you've got a much more diverse array of enemies to fight, including the dungeon bosses if you haven't already defeated them beforehand.}}
* [[Mythology Gag]]:
** The 2021 trailer alone has two of these. The first shot of Link skydiving in the trailer is framed exactly like the skydiving cutscenes in [[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword]], complete with the circular clouds creating some sort of tunnel around Link. The trailer also shows Zelda falling in a dark void, much like how in ''Skyward Sword'' Zelda fell to the surface after being dragged by a black tornado summoned by Ghirahim.
** Flux Constructs are block-like Golems, calling to mind the Avalaunch from The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening, or Eox from The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass.
** One of the most useful features of the Purah Pad is the Ultra Hand; way back in the 1950s (when Nintendo made toys, rather than video games) they put out a product with that name. It has been featured in other games, including featured in other games like ''[[Mario Kart|Mario Kart 8]]'', ''[[Splatoon|Splatoon 3]]'', and the ''[[Wario Ware]]'' series.
** Ganondorf's new design is an [[Art Shift]] that combines features of his previous three appearances. He has the rounder ears and the pointier nose from the Era of the Hero of Time, a stouter face like he had in the Era of the Great Sea, and a trimmed beard with gold jewelry like he had in the Era of Twilight. His longer hair is also reminiscent of Demise and his non-canon counterpart from ''[[Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity|Hyrule Warriors]]'', and he becomes even more like Demise during the Final Boss fight when he transforms into the Demon King.
** The battle between the original Sages and Ganondorf in the past is referred to as the Imprisoning War, the same name as the war in the backstory of ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]'' backstory in which the sages of Hyrule banished Ganon to the Dark World.
** The fight against the Scourge of Zora's Domain features a Mucktorok, which is a large cephlapod-like creature which mainly attacks by encasing itself in a shark made of sludge and its second phase has it cover most of the arena in sludge to swim around in to get away, which also hinders Link's movements and has to be cleared away with water, echoing a fight against the Inklings or Octolings from ''[[Splatoon]]'' .
** If you shoot down a duck mid-air, they will fall to the ground while spinning in the exact same manner as the ducks from ''[[Duck Hunt]]''.
