Tears of the Kingdom’s best addition makes skydiving magical

[ad_1]

Shooting stars were easily one of the most magical things you could discover in Breath of the Wild, and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom does something even better with them.

No story spoilers, but very light gameplay spoilers!

Back when Breath of the Wild first came out, there was so much stuff that constantly made me go “what the hell is that?” and “God, did something crash from the sky?” That second is how I discovered shooting stars, which honestly was such a cool thing to include that it adds a real wonder to the world. Shooting stars are back in Tears of the Kingdom, and they’ve been made even more special: you can literally catch them out of thin air.

Players started noticing early on that sometimes while diving from an island in the sky, a shooting star would appear near them and they could literally catch one as they fell. Obviously, the game hasn’t even been out a week yet, so it wasn’t clear how easy this is to happen, but then it happened to me, and oh man, is it just one of the coolest things in the game? . For the most part, you don’t do anything while skydiving, you just fall with a bit of flair, so it really makes you feel like you’re experiencing a bit of magic.

Some players have shared their own case of catching stars while skydiving, and it really seems like a special little moment for everyone who has experienced it. I literally gasped when it happened to me, it’s one of those touches that really makes it feel like Nintendo has thought of everything with this game.

There are also many special things to be found in Tears of the Kingdom, such as the new way the developers have paid tribute to the late Satoru Iwata, or the simple way you can share secrets and cool places with friends.
