Players who enjoyed the epic battles and majestic presence of the Divine Beasts in “The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild” are left wondering about their whereabouts in the highly anticipated sequel, “Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.”
These awe-inspiring machines played a pivotal role in the defeat of Calamity Ganon and were expected to make a return to aid in the fight against the Demon King. However, much to the disappointment of fans, the Divine Beasts are nowhere to be found in the game.
Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom: Where are the Divine Beasts?
The Absence of the Divine Beasts
In “Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom,” the Divine Beasts—Vah Medoh, Vah Naboris, Vah Rudania, and Vah Ruta—are conspicuously absent. Surprisingly, there is no dialogue or discussion about their absence either. One would assume that an NPC or character would suggest resurrecting these mighty machines to combat evil once again. However, during our playthrough, we haven’t come across any mention of them.
The Fate of the Champions
One clue as to why the Divine Beasts are not utilized in “Tears of the Kingdom” lies in the fate of the Champions. In a visit to Zora’s Domain, players are reminded of Mipha, the sister of Sidon, who valiantly fought Ganon but tragically had her soul trapped within Vah Ruta.
The same fate befell the other three Champions, and Ganon was able to corrupt and control them. To prevent a repeat of this tragedy, Zelda made the difficult decision to dismantle the Divine Beasts following the final battle.
Lack of New Champions and Time Constraints
Another reason for the absence of the Divine Beasts might be the absence of Zelda herself. In “Tears of the Kingdom,” Zelda is not present to choose new Champions, and there is no opportunity for new heroes to undergo the rigorous Champion Trials.
Without skilled pilots, the Divine Beasts remain dormant and ineffective. Link, the protagonist, likely prioritizes the search for the Sages over the revival of the Divine Beasts.
The Elusive Divine Beasts
At present, players won’t encounter the Divine Beasts in “Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom” unless there is a significant secret that has yet to be uncovered. Speculations have arisen that the Divine Beasts might be hidden underground as Easter eggs, but despite extensive exploration, we haven’t encountered any of them. It seems their absence in the game is intentional and serves to create new challenges and gameplay experiences for players.
