But how will Link begin his adventure in Tears of the Kingdom? The answer is quite obvious as it is one of the key attractions of this upcoming Zelda game, the floating islands in the sky. The official Zelda website stated, “Link begins his journey on one of the many mysterious floating islands that have suddenly appeared in the skies high above Hyrule. It’s there our hero will have to gain new abilities before returning to the surface world to begin his epic adventure.”

It seems after the events of Breath of the Wild, there is a small time gap before the journey in Tears of the Kingdom begins. Possibly, Hyrule faced something devastating during this time gap. Link was unable to protect the Hyrule Kingdom from that calamity, forcing him to seek new powers on the floating islands.

Undoubtedly, the sky above Hyrule would be a huge part of Tears of the Kingdom. All the trailers that were released so far put a great emphasis on the floating islands in the sky. Nintendo has never failed to impress with its new concepts in each Zelda game. So, let’s see what they have for their fans this time.
