Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom devs on their intent behind the Fuse and Ultrahand abilities

Nintendo of America has released the first in a series of short videos on Twitter featuring producer Eiji Aonuma and director Hidemaro Fujibayashi of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. These Q+A videos will examine various aspects of Tears of the Kingdom, and the first involves the Ultrahand and Fuse abilities.

What were the motivations behind adding these features to the game? According to Fujibayashi, “Whether it’s on the surface, in the sky, or in a cave, we wanted players to try their hand at being able to freely create whatever comes to mind by combining versatile items in a vast field.”
