A new ESRB rating for The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom revealed players will get to play as both Zelda and Link. During June 2024’s Nintendo Direct, fans were pleasantly surprised to learn a new The Legend of Zelda game is coming soon. Even more surprising was that players would play as Zelda, not Link. While many of us are slowly preparing to conjure furniture and capture monsters, an ESRB rating indicated Link would also be a playable character (thanks Eurogamer).

The 5 Zodiac Signs Not Meant for Matrimony

“Bit of a twitcher, are ye?” That’s what my high school biology teacher asked, a grin on his face, when he found out I was a birder. Another teacher in that school had skipped his university exams to twitch a Steller’s Eider in England back when he was a student. I’ve twitched a rarity here and there but very few actual vagrants, so I felt like I didn’t quite qualify and gave the somewhat disappointing answer of “well, kind of but not really”. That was several years before I volunteered on the birding hotspot of Heligoland where pretty much every other bird you see is twitched, although I’m not sure if walking five minutes to the other end of the island to see a Red-throated Pipit counts as twitching.
