While the latest trailer for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom gave fans plenty of new things to get excited about, it also appeared to show a classic enemy from the N64’s Ocarina of Time.
The infamous ReDead monster can be seen nestled between a Lizalfos and what appears to be a giant Bokoblin in a gameplay trailer shared during February 8’s Nintendo Direct.
The trailer only showed the ReDead for a couple of seconds, but those familiar with previous Zelda games will understand how it fits into a darker version of Hyrule.
While they’ve also appeared in Majora’s Mask and The Wind Waker, ReDeads are arguably most known from Ocarina of Time, where they haunt Castle Town’s ruined market place following the time jump.
Appearing as zombie-like creatures with spooky wooden masks, ReDeads would release a terrifying scream that paralyses Link before they skulk over and attack.
While ReDeads’ appearance have changed a little over the years to suit each game’s art style, their attacking behaviour has remained the same, meaning Tears of the Kingdom players will likely have to come face to face with one of the Zelda series’ scariest enemies once again.
The ReDead is just one of several surprises features in the new trailer for Tears of the Kingdom, but IGN has you covered with a list of the more interesting inclusions here. Nintendo shared plenty more itself about the Breath of the Wild sequel, of course, including its $70 price tag, its collector’s edition, and new Amiibo.
