Echoes of Wisdom Map Revealed Ahead of 9/27 Release
Ahead of the September 27 release, one gaming reporter has shared a look at what The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom map looks like. Hyrule looks a little different in virtually every single game. The only exception is Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom since they are the only two games directly linked that take place in the same exact place. Ocarina of Time and Majora’s Mask don’t count since one is in Hyrule and the other is in Termina. With this in mind, it’s always noteworthy how the developers have decided to lay out each version of the iconic fantasy land. Here’s the first look just over two weeks before the game comes out.

New Zelda Timeline Seems to Retcon Original
The Legend of Zelda timeline is and always has been quite convoluted. There really wasn’t one until the mid-2000s when players got tired of misunderstanding where these games happened in time. With the same people popping up in different games despite deaths or character changes, the timeline seemed to make no sense. That’s when Nintendo stepped in and tried its best to fit everything into one timeline. It didn’t work perfectly, but it wasn’t all that hard to follow. Now, a new timeline has been revealed and it seems to retcon a key aspect of the previous one.

Where Animal Crossing Can Go Following New Horizons
Animal Crossing: New Horizons is a game that gained a lot of popularity due to its release during the pandemic. Of course, this wasn’t Nintendo’s intention and the release could have just as easily gone poorly for the same reason it was so successful. Back then, there were a lot of trending media that people were watching, listening to, and playing. Animal Crossing: New Horizons has stood the test of time and has a genuine fanbase that is still invested in their islands to this day. Four years after its release, fans are hungry for more.

The Hitchhiker’s Guide to Hyrule: How the Classic Kingdom has Changed Over 38 Years
Many of the Zelda games take place in the fictional kingdom of Hyrule. Despite many of them being implied to take place in the same Hyrule, the kingdom’s geography has a peculiar habit of changing and shifting between games. Sometimes the shifts are small and subtle, and sometimes the newer Hyrule has barely anything in common with the previous version. With Echoes of Wisdom releasing later this month and a short demo having been available at PAX West, let’s take a look at the many changes to Hyrule over the years.
