The world and his dog may be disregarding the sunlight this weekend and shutting themselves away in favour of playing The Legend of Zelda: Tears of a Kingdom, however what takes place when you can’t even pet the dog?
That’s my awkward segue into validating the ravaging news that no, you cannot animal the dog in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. And no, fans are not happy about it.
“We waited 6 years, and for what?” believed one commenterand another responded: “That’s it I’m not purchasing.”
“This is the ‘tears’ part,” said another, which just-so takes place to be the official Specsavers Twitter account.

“If you animal it, it would lack toughness and be broken,” included another cheeky fan.
Producer Eiji Aonuma just recently hinted that a Zelda video game with a playable Zelda might come true.
“We seem like what takes most priority is this concept of gameplay. If it ends up that the specific gameplay we’re attempting to bring to fulfillment would be finest served by having Zelda take that function, then it’s possible that that might be an instructions we might take,” Aonuma said in a recent interview.
“With that said, obviously, since we are not exactly sure what the next gameplay experience is going to be, we can’t state what Zelda’s next action is going to be.”
In the Eurogamer The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom evaluation, we called the follow up “a fantastic Breath of the Wild follow-up with some dazzling brand-new systems, fantastic views and more dungeon-type areas, plus a somewhat deadening focus on event resources”, granting it 4 stars out of 5.
Hoping that Nintendo will think about bringing the Zelda series to life on the silver screen? You’re not the only one – even Tears of the Kingdom’s own designers are “interested” in the concept.
