Considered to be one of the biggest achievements in game design The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild was released in 2017 to high praise and is arguably the most popular titles ever released for the Nintendo Switch. Boasting a map bigger than Skyrim an open world and a spectacular story Breath of the Wild revolutionized the Zelda series and practically changed how open world environments were created moving forward and even influenced other games that were made later. Years after its original release Breath of the Wild will receive a sequel in The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom which is scheduled for release on May 12, 2023. Already fans have tons of theories about the advertising thats been shown.
The accompanying trailer that was released at a recent Nintendo Direct showed off tons of amazing imagery including Link diving through the sky and climbing the sides of floating islands in an epic display of the games verticality. However, during the trailer one keen observer seemed to notice an Easter egg hiding in plain sight that any who were not paying close attention might have missed. And as a result some theories have begun to spring up.
Experienced Legend of Zelda player and streamer PointCrow also made mention of this in their analysis of the trailer, even going as far as to give a specific location the place where you fight Farosh the dragon in Faron. From this Point Crow deduced that the game will be set above the playable area in Breath in the Wild and deal with the ancient Kingdom of Zonai an extinct tribe that were once wiped from Hyrule. Others have suggested that the rock section is a rewind feature of some kind or that it represents an alternate reality that Link is exploring. Hopefully more answers come before next May.
