Nintendo has released a new The legend of Zelda:Echoes of wisdom Trailer on how to travel through the land of Hyrule.
The next game in The legend of Zelda The series is set to launch on September 26 for the Nintendo Switch, but ahead of that, Nintendo has offered an in-depth look at how the journey will work from Princess Zelda's perspective.
We were first given a look at the many regions of Hyrule that may be familiar to fans, including the vast landscape outside of Hyrule Castle and the Gerudo Desert, as well as the waters of Jabul, the Eldin Volcano, and the Faron Wetlands.
Each area will feature a number of characters to meet, along with respective side quests that will reward the player for their good deeds.
In Echoes of wisdomYou won't have to rely on walking around the kingdom on foot, as there will be many ways to travel.
For example, there are travel waypoints that, when activated, can be accessed for fast travel. However, in other areas there will be obstacles in the way and that's where Zelda's horse comes into play.

Once mounted, you can gallop over weaker enemies and defeat them instantly, jumping over smaller obstacles such as fences or cliffs to make getting around much easier and faster. With Zelda's powers, you can also recreate carrots that you can use to call your steed from a distance.
The game will also feature a cooking-like system. With the right ingredients, you'll be able to visit shops staffed by Business Scrub and mix them into different smoothies, each with their own unique effects. Outfits and accessories will also enhance Zelda's abilities.
The trailer also introduced two new powers called Bind and Reverse Bond. With the help of a creature called Tri and Zelda's Tri Rod, you can create echoes (imitations of objects found in the environment) that will help you overcome a variety of obstacles.
However, as the trailer shows, some obstacles won't be so straightforward. By using Bind and Reverse Bond, you can make objects follow Zelda's movements, and similarly allow Zelda to follow a creature's movements. For example, with Bind, you can move rocks out of the way simply by walking in the required direction, uncover treasure chests from the ground, and also push enemies off cliffs.
Using Reverse Bond, you can also attach Zelda to moving objects such as platforms and even attach her to birds to give her the ability to fly.
The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom It was revealed during the June Nintendo Direct and will follow Princess Zelda on a quest to save Link and the people of Hyrule from a mysterious void.
