Zelda Voice Actress Uncertain About Returning for Tears of the Kingdom
The performer who voiced Zelda in Breath of the Wild was uncertain if she would return for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. The concluding trailer for Tears of the Kingdom showed Zelda asking Link to locate her, setting up a fresh mission to rescue the cherished princess.
Many believed that The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom would be a critical success, and it appears they were right. The game, which was already a contender for Game of the Year, has now become the title to beat. Reviews have claimed that while Tears of the Kingdom has not revolutionized what made Breath of the Wild popular, it has furthered and enlarged its solid base. Moreover, Link and Zelda are in need of saving after getting separated.
Patricia Summersett, who auditioned for the role of Zelda without knowing almost a decade ago, was uncertain if she would take it up again. When talking to IGN, Summersett commented on her experience with Breath of the Wild, which at first she thought was just another fantasy RPG before realizing that it was actually part of The Legend of Zelda franchise. She mentioned how voice actors cannot always depend on a sequel being made, particularly when it comes to Nintendo and their approach to The Legend of Zelda, which involves reinventing the series instead of creating a direct sequel.
Nevertheless, Tears of the Kingdom is a direct continuation of Breath of the Wild. Viewers were worried that reusing Breath of the Wild ‘s map would reduce the pleasure of exploration that had made the original so captivating. Nintendo was in a dilemma when it came to advertising why Tears of the Kingdom is a desirable sequel, obviously wishing to arouse enthusiasm but also allowing them to find out each enhancement on their own.
The third trailer for Tears of the Kingdom, with its four-minute runtime, allayed many of the concern surrounding the game. It presented much of what Nintendo had been withholding, and the saxophone score had fans asking for an instrumental version. Despite the copyright issues and worries that the aging hardware may affect performance, the Day One patch has partially alleviated these worries, and Tears of the Kingdom is anticipated to be a great success, similar to Breath of the Wild.
The Tears of the Kingdom, the latest installment in the Legend of Zelda series, is now available for Nintendo Switch users.
