The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom
Summary
The Legend of Zelda : binge of the Kingdomhas some great fictitious character with the potential to re-emerge . TheZeldaseries has always reused its character , assigning them slightly different visual aspect , roles , and personality across the eras . It might be better to think of them as archetypes or else of fibre in the traditional sensory faculty : a diversity of masks that different individuals can bust at unlike times , each to become the needs of a particular arm within theZeldaseries ' split timeline .
ButTOTK(andBOTWby extension ) does n’t simply reuse characters from otherZeldagames - it also inaugurate a bunch of raw ones . And sinceTOTKmakes many contribution to theZeldaseries , it would n’t be too much of a surprise to see some of its most original , fan - preferred characters go back in futureZeldagames , either in the same or a similar capacity . Here are ten grapheme fromTOTKwho should make appearances in futureZeldagames .
As hard an opponent as Ganondorf is in The Legend of Zelda : tear of the Kingdom , he is arguably not hand a fair combat in the game .
10Hestu
Korok Seed Collector
Hestu is so much playfulness inBOTWandTOTKthat he ’d make an excellent recurring character . Koroks appear in some capacity in mostZeldagames , so there ’d almost always be a plaza for him by their side , wherever that may be . Even iffinding Koroks and collecting Korok seedsdon’t total back in succeeding deed , Hestu could play some other function - perhaps as a Korok drawing card , or a guardian of their timberland . Plus , it ’d be interesting to see what novel saltation move he could draw out off .
9Pikango
Point-Of-Interest Painter
Pikango appears in the unlikeliest of places acrossTOTK ’s map , always painting landscape that direct Link to find various points of pursuit . He makes a wonderful guide , and could certainly serve a similar purpose in a futureZeldagame . If the franchise ’s future is in open - world , BOTW - inspire gameplay , Link is going to need a mass of help getting around . Pikango ’s portaits could betoken him towards a variety of different activity , or send him out on a photo - taking quest to provide a visual reference point .
8Robbie
The Industrious Inventor
Zeldagames are all about the convenience , and there ’s often a unhinged scientist archetype who provides Link with the tools he needs . In the future , that might as well be Robbie , the Sheikah Slate - take , Depths - diving event researcher who debuts inBOTWand reappears inTOTK . In anupcomingZeldagame set in a different ageof the serial publication persistence , there will certainly be further gadgets for Robbie to monkey around with , and raw phenomena for him to investigate .
7King Rauru
Co-Founder Of Hyrule
Although characters named Rauru have appear in previousZeldagames , TOTK ’s King Rauru is the first to be described as the founder of Hyrule . It ’s a fascinating role , and one with multitudinous potency for geographic expedition in the series ' future . Unfortunately , Rauru ’s persona is special inTOTK . He appears only as a scout during the tutorial , and then in the sparse flashback that seem inZelda ’s Dragon Tear Memoriesacross the single-valued function . In the future , it ’d be nice to see his role expanded , perhaps as part of aTOTKprequel that depicts an alternate retelling of Hyrule ’s former day .
6Riju
Gerudo Chief
Riju ’s come - of - eld account inBOTWis observe up with a triumphant recurrence inTOTK . She undergo a nice little type arc in between the two games , turning from an insecure young leader to a hero of her people . She makes a great ally in struggle , and , with her newfound status as the Sage of Lightning , is more powerful than ever before . It ’d be great to see another Riju cameo in a futureZeldagame , perhaps as the braw and triumphant loss leader of the Gerudo , or the timeless Sage of Lightning .
5Tauro
Ring Ruin Researcher
Tauro only appears concisely inTOTK , but owe to his excellent fibre design , he ’s become a memorable type and buff favorite . Tauro is a investigator place in Kakariko Village , one of many responsible for trying to decode the Ring Ruins ' inscriptions while go along curious Hylians from mount on them . Again , Tauro does n’t have much to do inTOTK , but it ’d be skillful to see him take on a larger role in the nextZeldagame . If other scientists like Robbie and Purah issue forth back , he could work more closely with them , or find some other ancient artifact to study .
4Hudson & Rhondson
Hyrule’s Favorite Power Couple
One of the most magical side activities inBOTWandTOTKis the Hudson Construction quest line of products . player must cumulate materials to build a minor town , bringing a quantity of quilt and stableness to a fractured Hyrule . InTOTK , Hudson take Link to help him find a wife , which he does in the Gerudo seamster Rhondson . They make a lovely couple , and one that ’s mature for return . Construction is often a factor inZelda ; novel field are often built over the course of a secret plan , and only unlocked when they ’re wholly finished . And withTOTK ’s commitment to fit out customization , there may be some raw apparel for Rhondson to stitch .
3Sidon
The Once And Future Zora King
The comely Prince Sidon right away made waves with his introduction inBOTW , so it was no surprisal to see him return inTOTKas the king of the Zora . With his well-disposed posture , can - do demeanor , and boundless confidence , he makes a worthy ally , and a enceinte prospect for recurring case . Like the Koroks , the Zora appear in mostZeldagames as one of the peoples Link is tasked with portion , and Sidon always has a billet among them . Whether he returns again as king , prince , or merely a devoted warrior , his return in anotherZeldagame would be most welcome .
2Purah
Ancient Tech Expert
Like Robbie , Purah is a scientific genius , and one of Hyrule ’s nonmigratory expert on ancient engineering science , often finding way to twist mysterious obstacles into handy tools . In a exchangeable way , she could appear in futureZeldagames , allow for important lore data to contextualize the mystic ruins and artifacts Link confrontation . Plus , with her preference for experiment on herself with anti - senescent machines , there ’s plenitude of comedic potential drop in other kinds of trials go awry .
1Queen Sonia
Hyrule’s First Hero
Queen Sonia definitely has a place in whatever ’s next for theZeldaseries . Like Rauru , she only come out briefly inTOTK- exceptshe gets even less screen time , appear only in flashbacks . As the first queen of Hyrule , she ’s represented as a great unifier , and makes a heroic sacrifice in monastic order to save Zelda ’s life . Sonia is a fascinating character , and there ’s a short ton of potentiality to search her background in a continuation . That lead double if it ’s a prequel set around the origination of Hyrule , tie in her husband Rauru as well .
No matter what counseling the next game takes , there ’s mess of potential difference for exploring these characters further in aZeldasequel . Whether their roles are expanded , diminished , or only recur , it ’d be a delight to see any of these fan favorites once again . However , with little news on the horizon , it ’ll be a while before anyone be intimate which fibre will return forThe Legend of Zelda : Tears of the Kingdom ’s follow - up .
