As a rare direct sequel in the Zelda series, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom‘s map expands on Breath of the Wild‘s in ambitious ways. Taking full advantage of the game’s lengthy development cycle, Tears of the Kingdom builds on Breath of the Wild‘s open-world formula, expanding combat and traversal with several new abilities, new locations, and the re-incorporation of some more traditional Zelda elements that Breath of the Wild broke away from.
