Nintendo has announced that the recently released Zelda title The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom has sold 2.58 million units as of September 30. This means the game achieved these numbers in less than a week since it launched on September 26 for Nintendo Switch. The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom, follows Zelda who, “in search of Link and the king of Hyrule, both of whom were stolen away, must borrow the power of an ethereal creature called Tri.”
The game’s details:
The land of Hyrule has been torn apart by mysterious Rifts. In search of Link and the king of Hyrule, both of whom were stolen away, Princess Zelda must borrow the power of an ethereal creature called Tri. Together, they enter the tears that scar the land in order to save her kingdom. On her journey, Zelda will explore what lies within the Rifts.
Navigating the Still World
This is the Still World. Here, trees, fragments of land, people, and other items that were swallowed up by the Rifts float in the void. It’s said they will eventually vanish completely. Exploring the farthest reaches of this world is no easy feat. To do so, Zelda will have to traverse eerie floating terrain. Because the path is broken up, the Echoes you’ve learned can come in handy. Forge your own way forward by creating Echoes to use as platforms to bridge the gaps.
Massive dungeons can also be found deep within the Still World. Zelda will use her wisdom and Echoes to take on enemies and puzzles that stand in her way, then confront challenging bosses who await her arrival. What to do though? Overwhelm the boss with Echoes? Or combine them to find unique ways around the situation? The strategy is yours to devise.
The Still World can be accessed through Rifts scattered across Hyrule, and each entry point leads to a location with its own defining features. On her adventure, Zelda must overcome dungeons within the Rifts and the mysteries they hold. Without Link or the king, Hyrule’s fate rests squarely in Zelda’s hands.
Swordfighter Form
When Zelda finds and picks up a mysterious sword, she takes on the Swordfighter form, allowing her to attack directly. With its mighty power, she can forge ahead when her path is blocked, strike down enemies on her own, or battle alongside Echoes. However, she can only stay in Swordfighter form for a short period of time. When or where you choose to wield this power is up to you. The sword’s gauge can be replenished by collecting energy found in the Still World, so be sure to grab any you find.
Inhabitants of Hyrule
This is Dampe, an engineer who crafts clockwork gizmos in Hyrule. His extravagant creations are called Automatons, and they can be activated by winding them up. They can unleash powerful effects that differentiate them from Echoes, but be careful—they’ll break apart if they take too much damage. You’ll meet many other quirky characters during your travels, and there’s no doubt they’ll be of great help to the princess.
On a journey to traverse and save Hyrule, Princess Zelda’s wisdom is key to undertaking this adventure.
