We got together this morning to work out what we all made of it.

Here are some of our thoughts.

What do you reckon?

Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.

What does it all MEAN!?

What’s it like to play the sequel to one of the best games ever made?

Will smarter fans than me finally translate the Zonai language?

Was there even new Zonai words in this trailer?

What other unusedBreath of the Wildconcepts have creeped into the sequel?

I don’t know what a slice of proper gameplay looks like just yet, but that’s okay.

Link in Tears of the Kingdom

I can extend those days of watching theory videos to weeks now.

It’s almost as good as playing a new Zelda game…almost.

Sequels sure love moons!

“Rise, rise my servants!”

says the deep voice of…Ganondorf?

The blood moon rises and enemies fall like meteors from a darkened sky.

Sequels love moons I guess.

I’m still left wanting though, but that’s a good thing.

And when Zelda cries “lend him your power!”

who is she speaking to?

The other Link we’ve previously seen?

Don’t kill me.

There’s still so much to see!

And yet here’s an entirely new game coming along behind it!

Good problem to have, I know.

And I’m sure I will feel differently when the new game is on the shop ready to buy.

Weird Zelda is good Zelda, after all.

It’s one I cannot wait to solve for myself in a few short months.
