System: Switch
Release date: December 10, 2024

Zelda games are known for their companions, and in Echoes of Wisdom, Tri served that purpose. In a Famitsu interview, the team gave some insight into how the character was finalized.

However, after Tri’s role shifted a bit, so did the character itself. Series producer Eiji Aonuma also stated that having the character not be human was “essential” since “the fact they couldn’t understand human emotions was an important point.”
