Nintendo has just released this new TV advertisement for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, and although it might appear a bit familiar to people who have been keeping up with the leaks, it also contains some extended bits of new footage that could indicate something that is not quite right.
‘You Can Do What?!’ is the banner that reads ‘You Can Do What?!’ The advertisement mostly features young adult Switch users – the kind who may have just finished playing with friends on the roof – experimenting with creative solutions to various in-game problems in order to solve them. Throughout the footage, we see how the player is able to escape from enemies using the ascend ability, along with how light-giving plants are used to enable him to explore one of the huge underground caves. We also see a detailed view of Hyrule Castle, which provides us with a great deal of information concerning the game as a whole. There is also the appearance of Link armed with a shield cannon and engaging in a combat battle against a Flame Gleeok – arguably one of the most impressive moments shown in the leaked version of the advertisement to date – in which Link engages in a combat battle.
As you can tell from the image above, although the original leaked advertisement was only 30 seconds in length, the updated version has been extended to a full minute in comparison with the original. In addition to the footage that is available in this mode, there is also some additional material that involves one of the players attempting to cross an interconnected line of rails connecting two sky islands by making use of the rails. If you want to build a powered rail car with Ultrahand, you’ll only get so far, because it will fall over whenever it stumbles over broken sections of the track whenever it falls over broken sections. When adding multiple cars to the train, the vehicle will have sufficient length to cover the gap without having to stop to cross it, which will make the vehicle more efficient.
It’s really cool how that puzzle solution works, but perhaps even more cool is the way in which it has implications for the creative ways that Tears of the Kingdom’s sky islands may be able to communicate with each other in the future in order for them to function properly. There are always ways to find creative ways to cross between islands when you think about it. If an island group is connected to the mainland by a rail line, then there is a lot of potential for finding ever-more creative ways to cross between them as the islands are connected. As a result, there may be some additional items that have to be transported by transport cars in addition to what was already mentioned.
Throughout the game, the rail lines that run through the platformer have become one of the recurring themes, as they are seen throughout the game. While both Link and his enemy construct were riding railcars across a seemingly underground lava-soaked area in a seemingly underground area that was drenched with lava in the last Tears of the Kingdom trailer, the two of them engaged in combat with each other as they both battled for control of the kingdom.
It seems that the Tears of the Kingdom trailer will be the last proper trailer for the game, but there is still a chance that we might be able to catch a glimpse of some new footage through brief TV commercials, like the commercial shown above that shows Link firing a cannon in Japanese at the end.
