Another video clip has been released by Nintendo, showing off the variety of weapons and attacks Link can use in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.
Nintendo has been on an absolute roll with all of these Breath of the Wild teases and, honestly, we couldn’t be any more excited. The greatest part about these clips is that each one shows off some new element of the game, which is amazing to see. We already got an extensive look at the game at this year’s E3, but it’s great to know production may be nearing completion.
In a new video clip released straight from the Nintendo of America Twitter account, we get a closer look at some of the weapons Link will use to battle enemies throughout the game, including Bokoblins. Take a look.
"Check out a few of the weapons you’ll be able to use in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild!https://t.co/oI1IiBknuu— Nintendo of America (@NintendoAmerica) August 24, 2016"
At the very beginning of the clip, we see Link whip out a huge sword that does massive damage. Immediately, you notice that Link uses that sword, which is much bigger than the ones he usually uses, much differently. He attacks the Bokoblins with a spinning attack that takes them all out in less than three seconds.
We also see Link wield an axe, which looks similar to the giant sword he was also using, and does great damage as well. In the next couple of seconds, the video switches to Link fighting off skeletons at night while using a Bokoblin arm, which is odd, but definitely something different and it’s great to see variety in the game.
Lastly, we see Link using some sort of fire rod that sends out balls of fire that will do damage.
