Hyrule’s Princess is a familiar face but this time using her Wisdom to save the day. Link has been stolen away by a strange rift, so it’s up to Princess Zelda to save her kingdom.
Meeting a mysterious fairy, Tri, the princess borrows the power of the Tri Rod, which allows her to summon “echoes” - imitations of things found in the environment, like objects and monsters. With this, she can solve problems in a fresh new way. Whether it’s the echo of a table to hop up a ledge, or a carrot to summon a trusty steed to explore Hyrule.
Reminiscent of the open-world escapades around Hyrule in Tears of the Kingdom and Breath of the Wild, Echoes of Wisdom brings something new to the classic Zelda formula by letting you choose which order you explore the map. With the freedom to experiment with echoes, and the freedom to explore, this entry in the franchise looks to shake things up.

The Princess has another nifty trick up her sleeve in Bind, an ability that makes objects follow Zelda’s movement. Reverse Bond is the opposite - tying Zelda’s movement to an object. With them, she can throw massive boulders out of her way, or attach herself to a creature like a bird and fly along with it as it roams Hyrule. Both abilities work in combination with echoes - there are plenty of interactions to discover!
