While fans look ahead to the next The Legend of Zelda game, past games like The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom and The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom could be the last time players experience game-defining mechanics like Ultrahand or Echoes. Over the years and throughout the series' history, The Legend of Zelda has seen a wide range of special mechanics unique to each game. However, this has also set a sad but understandable precedent where each game's exclusive mechanic or feature is promptly retired ahead of the next Zelda adventure.
