You might be planning to revisit Breath of the Wild before Tears of the Kingdom, but don't forget another crucial chapter in Link's story.
With The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom less than one month away, it’s as good a time as any to revisit Breath of the Wild. Maybe you still have a few shrines to clear out, or perhaps you never defeated Calamity Ganon . Now might be your last chance to finish that story before diving headfirst into Hyrule’s next chapter.
More than a musou While Age of Calamity’s narrative may not be “canon,” it still expands the world of Breath of the Wild in some crucial ways. History plays a major role in the latter game, with Link trying to piece together what happened before the Calamity. We flash back to some of those moments in unlockable memories, but we only get a few glimpses into the past by the end.
Breath of the Wild’s divine beasts get a similar treatment here. When that game begins, the hulking machines are a bit mysterious. Players are told that they were once important weapons that could be the key to taking down Ganon, but we never really see their power. Even in the finale, they feel more like glowing MacGuffins than war-winning machines.
Zelda has her moment In its best moments, Age of Calamity excels at delivering sequences like that — ones that deepen my understanding of Breath of the Wild despite not perfectly aligning with its story. The best example of that comes from the way it handles the series’ titular character: Zelda herself. For decades, the princess has played second fiddle to Link as he heroically saves the day.
