Aryll speaks for Toon Link in Hyrule Warriors Legends
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 1 Comment
If you’ve played Hyrule Warriors, you’re probably aware of the fact that a fairy speaks on Link’s behalf. This makes sense since he doesn’t talk in the Zelda games. But Toon Link, a new addition in Hyrule Warriors Legends, never had a fairy. The developers solved this issue with an interesting approach.
Aryll basically takes on the same role as the fairy for Toon Link. During battle, she’s able to speak for the legendary hero. This is done through the powers of the Pirate’s Charm. You can see this briefly in the video embedded below.
