The ESRB rating for Nintendo's upcoming The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom reveals a surprising twist: Princess Zelda's debut as the main protagonist will also feature Link as a playable character. The September release is generating significant excitement.
Zelda and Link: A Dual Protagonist Adventure
The ESRB listing confirms both Zelda and Link are playable in Echoes of Wisdom, rated E 10+ and free of microtransactions. The description highlights Zelda's quest to seal rifts across Hyrule and rescue Link. Gameplay involves Zelda wielding a magic wand to summon creatures for combat, while Link uses his sword and arrows. Enemies meet varied ends—some are burned, others dissolve into mist.
This marks a pivotal moment for the Zelda franchise, giving Princess Zelda her first starring role. The game's popularity is undeniable, having quickly become a top wishlisted title following its summer showcase announcement.
The extent of Link's playable segments remains a mystery. The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom launches September 26, 2024.
Hyrule Edition Switch Lite: Pre-Orders Open!
To coincide with the game's launch, Nintendo offers a special Zelda-themed Hyrule Edition Switch Lite, available for pre-order. This golden console, featuring the Hyrule crest and Triforce symbol, doesn't include the game but bundles a 12-month Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack subscription for $49.99.
