Though Nintendo is leaving behind the Ultrahand ability that helped define The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, this could be a second chance for Breath of the Wild's Magnesis ability to return in the series' future. Considering Zelda's history of making signature mechanics exclusive to just one game, such as The Minish Cap's miniaturization or A Link Between Worlds' wall-merging, it was always possible that Tears of the Kindom's Ultrahand would be retired. But while this allows Nintendo to keep the series fresh and interesting with new ideas, the Ultrahand's absence in Zelda post-Tears of the Kingdom will be difficult to ignore.
