The\u00a0Legend of Zelda<\/em> series has taken some unexpected turns recently, from the rather early announcement of a\u00a0Breath of the Wild<\/em> sequel to a remake of 1993’s\u00a0<\/a>Link’s Awakening<\/em><\/a>.<\/a> However, while some\u00a0fans clamored\u00a0another game like the hack-and-slash musou\u00a0Hyrule Warriors<\/em>, not many\u00a0expected the next game in the series to serve as a pseudo-prequel to 2017’s\u00a0Breath of the Wild<\/em>. After\u00a0some\u00a0time-traveling hijinks ensues,\u00a0Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity<\/em><\/strong> explores the events before Breath of the Wild<\/em>, taking place 100 years prior, allowing players to return to Hyrule before the aftermath of Calamity Ganon.<\/p>\n

Many fans were excited to learn more about Breath of the Wild<\/em>‘s Champions, explore more of that universe’s overarching story, and have the chance to control the overpowering Sheikah Guardians.\u00a0Age of Calamity<\/a><\/em>\u00a0pleased\u00a0many by improving greatly upon the\u00a0previous\u00a0Hyrule Warriors<\/em> game, and much like its predecessor,\u00a0Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity<\/em> included a sizable star-studded cast of playable characters, each with their own in-depth movesets and abilities. And\u00a0since the original Hyrule Warriors<\/em> was no stranger to adding more obscure\u00a0characters as DLC,\u00a0there are arguably some other more outlandish\u00a0Breath\u00a0of the Wild<\/i> characters that would make great additions to\u00a0Age of Calamity<\/em> as\u00a0DLC.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild<\/i> has many memorable NPC’s, and upon the game’s release, fans instantly fell in love with the accordion-playing Rito minstrel Kass. In Breath\u00a0of the Wild<\/i>, Kass provides\u00a0Link\u00a0with some cryptic riddles and also\u00a0helps players learn the history of Calamity Ganon<\/a> through song. In potential Age of Calamity<\/em>\u00a0DLC, Kass could be easily implemented as a\u00a0visitor from the future. While the game\u00a0already features 2\u00a0playable Rito characters, Kass would likely have a very different playstyle compared to Revali and Teba, because while Kass doesn’t come off as\u00a0much of a fighter, it would be interesting to see\u00a0Age of Calamity<\/em> implement a rhythm-based moveset for the lovable Rito.<\/p>\n

Ideally, Kass’\u00a0moveset could expand upon Sidon’s, while focusing on the character’s musicality. In\u00a0Age of Calamity<\/em>,\u00a0players can strengthen Sidon’s strong attacks with well-time button presses. It would be interesting to see Kass’ moveset act similarly, where when a player initiates a strong attack with the character, a rhythm-based mechanic \u00e0 la <\/a>Taiko no Tatsujin<\/em><\/a>\u00a0appears, letting players perform a string\u00a0of attacks timed to music, constantly strengthening upon each well-timed button input. Either way, Kass is one popular Breath of the Wild<\/em>\u00a0NPC who arguably deserves a\u00a0spotlight in\u00a0Age of Calamity<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Although Link is already playable in\u00a0Hyrule Warriors:\u00a0Age of Calamity<\/i> with a variety of movesets for different weapons, giving him a horseback riding variant could\u00a0open more doors for the character, adding untapped aspects of\u00a0Breath of the Wild<\/em>‘s combat. After all, this is the version of Link that was first shown off during\u00a0Breath of the Wild<\/em>‘s official reveal trailer back in 2014, and even had its own amiibo figure release alongside the game in March 2017. And while players can utilize a variety of weapons on horseback<\/a> in\u00a0Breath of the Wild<\/em>, this version of Link was first introduced to fans as an archer.<\/p>\n

Link can already use many weapons in Age of Calamity<\/em>, but his bow was relegated to his unique\u00a0action while entire bow and arrow movesets\u00a0were\u00a0reserved for Revali and Teba.<\/a> Placing Link on horseback may be enough to justify an entirely new bow and arrow moveset for him, also making for the most fast-paced character yet. Not to mention, some\u00a0Dynasty Warriors<\/em> games have focused on horseback combat in the past as well. In games like\u00a0Dynasty Warriors 6<\/em>, players could train and level up horses, and with Link having more horses than just Epona at his disposal in Breath of the Wild<\/em>, it could give players the chance to obtain horses with different attributes, and possibly even open up new functionalities\u00a0for stables in\u00a0Age of Calamity<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Although Lynels have been a reoccurring\u00a0enemy in the\u00a0Legend of Zelda<\/em> series for some time, even appearing in the first\u00a0Zelda<\/em> game on the NES, they arguably gained their\u00a0most menacing reputation with\u00a0Breath of\u00a0the Wild<\/i>. In\u00a0Hyrule Warriors: Age<\/em>\u00a0of Calamity<\/em>, Lynels\u00a0appear in their many variations<\/a> indicating different levels of strength as they do in\u00a0Breath\u00a0of the Wild<\/i>, along with some new elemental attributes added to some as well. And while Lynels appear as stronger boss-type enemies in\u00a0Age of Calamity<\/em>, it would be interesting to be able to play as one for once. After all, if players can unlock Calamity Ganon itself\u00a0has a playable character, why not a Lynel? A playable Lynel could wield different weapons much like\u00a0Link, including a sword and shield combo, a spear, a bow, or even their signature Crusher. It would also be interesting to allow players to change the elemental attributes of the Lynel to play as an electric, fire, or ice Lynel by feeding it different dishes.<\/p>\n

While Wolf Link would certainly be a wildcard character in Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity<\/em>, he\u00a0doesn’t seem too out of the realm of possibility. This is mainly because back at E3 2016, Nintendo announced that the Wolf Link amiibo<\/a> would be compatible with\u00a0The Legend of Zelda: Breath\u00a0of the Wild<\/i>, giving Link a traveling companion. Wolf Link would aid\u00a0the player in attacking both enemies and animals. So, Wolf Link already exists in some form (without Midna) in the\u00a0Breath of the Wild<\/em> universe, and if\u00a0Age of Calamity<\/em> is anything to go off of, it’s clear that the game isn’t incredibly\u00a0concerned with continuity and canonicity. While the character’s moveset would certainly revolve around biting, it could utilize Wolf Link’s enhanced senses and ability to track scents in some way. Perhaps\u00a0Wolf Link’s strong attacks could be tied to its enhanced senses, allowing him\u00a0“sense” vulnerable areas on enemies to perform a super strong\u00a0attack.<\/p>\n

Overall, many games over the years have made it clear that the\u00a0Legend of Zelda<\/em> series has an incredible wealth of characters at its disposal. And while the first\u00a0Hyrule Warriors<\/em> game drew upon\u00a0characters from all facets of the\u00a0Zelda<\/em> series,\u00a0DLC characters in\u00a0Age of Calamity<\/em>\u00a0could help flesh out the\u00a0Breath of the Wild<\/em> universe as much as possible, much like the characters who are already in the game. Of course, the game could always opt to simply\u00a0add some plain dumb fun characters as well, like Wolf Link. While some datamines have already revealed potential DLC characters for\u00a0Age of Calamity<\/em>,<\/a> it will be interesting to see which characters, if any, end up making their way\u00a0to the game.<\/p>\n

Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>is out now on Nintendo Switch.<\/p>\n
