Create Your Own Potions In The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword

Recommended Videos

Another one of the new features in The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword is the ability to create your own potions. Similar to Twilight Prinecss, you’ll be able to collect bugs in different areas. You can then infuse these insects with various potions that you uy at the Bazaar in Skyloft.

 

Combining different insects with different potions has various effects, none of which Nintendo have specifically detailed, but they say you can experiment with different combinations to find concoctions that best suit  your needs.

 

We also know a little more about Lake Floria, which was revealed to be one of the areas in Skyward Sword this past week. Lake Floria is an undiscovered section of the Faron Woods, and is inhabited by the Parella tribe, a race of squid-like creatures.

 

Using Lake Floria as an example, Nintendo say that even when you revisit past areas in Skyward Sword, you’ll find drastic changes to the environment and find new ways to explore.

 

Another area briefly touched upon is Fun Fun Island. This place is in the sky, located near Skyloft. There’s fun to be had here, but first, you have to complete a mysterious quest for its sole inhabitant.

 

Food for thought:

While Gorons are accounted for, there’s been no mention of the Zoras as yet. Perhaps they inhabit another water body in Skyward Sword?
