A new trailer for the game was also revealed showing a load of new gameplay that features our first look at Zelda and teases both Ganon and the Great Deku Tree. Throughout the trailer Link can be seen journeying through a number of areas and encountering many creatures, both friend and foe, including Gorons, The Rito and shark people that could well be a Zora relative.
