Earlier this week, Eiji Aonuma lifted the lid on the new top-down adventure The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom.
Instead of Link, this new outing stars Princess Zelda, and instead of a sword and shield, you're now armed with the Tri Rod, which allows you to summon all sorts of objects (known as echoes) to take down enemies, overcome environmental obstacles, and solve puzzles.
This will likely result in all sorts of amusing scenes when the game arrives on the Switch later this year and it seems many artists on social media are already getting creative with this concept - with all sorts of hilarious comic book-style skits popping up online. Here are some of the standouts so far:
Artists featured: @Stoic_Miiverse, @MagicStarADL, @cheppoly, @Knuckles_Art, @furanchu, @Seiharts, @ArchdanMiiverse, @ChristinaDrawin
You can learn more about the new Legend of Zelda game starring Zelda in our previous coverage here on Nintendo Life.
In case you missed it, pre-orders are now live for the game (including that stunning Hyrule Edition Switch Lite) and we've also put together an extensive feature highlighting some things you might have missed in the initial reveal trailer.
Are you excited for Zelda's upcoming adventure due out this September? Let us know in the comments.

Love it. These are hilarious and adorable. Also, can't wait for this game.
Wait until you see all the "I am the table" memes that spawned from this.
Adorable 💜 💜💜
Can't wait to play!
I can't get the image out of my head of Zelda sitting in Vergil's plastic chair whilst Vergil's seething in the background pulling Yamato out of its sheath.
you mean Zeldacraft? XD
Zelda with two Samus arm cannons is all I ever needed. 🤩
News article for fanarts? My kinda jam 😍
I think it will be cool if zelda can summon her guards to fight her enemy, I mean he's a princess afterall, she should have a couple of guard nearby for shie.., I mean protection.
Pffft the chair tower. And the ikea bag.
These are great.
The words Zelda, fan art and getting creative just draws to mind the sort of fetishy art that requires plopping my eyes out with a grapefruit spoon.
I love the Samus arm cannons one
But wasn’t expecting the Simpsons reference in the other one 😂
Imagine infinite duplication glitches in this game...
NeonShambles (Newgrounds)
I like the Simpsons edit where it's Ganon in the tub and Zelda is behind him with a chair
The Chair of Wisdom takes the prize for me. Wonderful.
aha, funny selection, thanks! Loved the Ikea one.
Looking forward to this game for sure!
@gcunit It actually reminds me a bit of how the Iron Throne in A Song of Ice and Fire is supposed to look like. The show didn't nearly make it high enough (it's supposed to sit atop a flight of stairs built on swords melted together). But I do agree: that one takes the cake.
Also this one: https://x.com/EmilyE_Draws/status/1803128246156009832?t=-K2JoMKHDCun2vX14C0XRA&s=19
Hilarious and adorable fan art, kudos to all these artists!
Wow, these picz are kinda better than the original xD kudos to all these talented artists^^
I love looking at fan art for video games. The talent shown will take the artists far
The throne of wisdom is beautifully genius. Made me nose exhale. Love the tiny sunglasses for Tri
Add another to that pile, one of the indies I follow seems to be excited as well.

These memes are hilarious, and it's so heartening to see all the excitement for Zelda's first Zelda! Yup, it's even more fun to type than it is to hear: Zelda's first Zelda
Zelda: "A guy opens the door and gets shot, and you think that of me? No! I am the door!"
I genuinely laughed out loud. Great job 👏
This chair is what all true warriors strive for!
@WaveBoy If you don’t like Echoes of Wisdom, then why did you leave a comment on an article talking about Echoes of Wisdom fan art?
If I were artistic, I'd do a mashup of this with The Office (US) mega-desk versus quad-desk.
