Daily Debate: What Enemies Would You Like to See Return in Breath of the Wild 2?
Posted on March 14 2022 by Chakell Herbert
As much as I adore Breath of the Wild, I am ready to take on some new enemies in the sequel. With the new dark and sinister vibes we are getting from the footage we’ve received for the sequel (and seeing that Ganondorf is practically a zombie of sorts), I think it’s the perfect opportunity to reintroduce some classic terrifying enemies like ReDeads, Gibdos, and Wallmasters in this version of Hyrule.
As much as those enemies scared the daylights out of me in Ocarina of Time and The Wind Waker growing up, they have become some of my favorites of Link’s many foes! Besides the frightening Guardian encounters (that became less frightening over time the stronger Link became), I feel like Breath of the Wild was lacking in some of the classic Zelda vibes when it comes to enemies that strike fear into your soul. I’m hopeful to see some of these spooktacular enemies again this year.
What about you? What enemies do you hope to see return in the sequel to Breath of the Wild?
