The Legend of Zelda fans have an exciting opportunity to play as Zelda herself in The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom, the latest entry in the series. Set to release on September 26, the game features a colorful visual aesthetic reminiscent of the 2019 remake of Link’s Awakening. For those who have not yet experienced the remake, now is the perfect time to do so as Walmart is offering Link’s Awakening for $40, marked down from $60, for a limited time.
The renewed interest in Link’s Awakening due to Echoes of Wisdom’s upcoming release has led to a surge in demand for the game. Amazon quickly sold out of the discounted price, and there is a possibility that Walmart may follow suit. With its cozy gameplay and nostalgic appeal, Link’s Awakening offers a refreshing change of pace from the more expansive open-world Zelda titles like Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom.
The Switch version of Link’s Awakening stays true to the original Game Boy classic while introducing quality-of-life improvements and new collectibles to discover on Koholint Island. It serves as an excellent introduction to younger players who are new to the Zelda series. Additionally, for those who are longing for the traditional Zelda experience, Link’s Awakening is a must-play title.
