A player of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom showcased their creativity by utilizing in-game objects to create a cover version of a popular song from the 1995 SNES RPG Chrono Trigger. The composer of the cover then shared their creation on social media, receiving praise from fans of both Tears of the Kingdom and Chrono Trigger for their dedication and attention to detail.
Despite numerous hours of gameplay, many Tears of the Kingdom players are still uncovering hidden secrets scattered throughout Hyrule, thanks to the game's versatile Zonai devices. With a whopping 10 million units sold, Tears of the Kingdom continues to thrive on social media with no signs of slowing down. While some players rely on Zonai devices to carry out mundane tasks, one player decided to utilize these tools to showcase their musical talent by covering one of Chrono Trigger's most iconic songs.
Twitter user bran8bit, who is also a Tears of the Kingdom player, has once again demonstrated their innovative musical talents by creating a captivating cover of "Corridors of Time" from Chrono Trigger. In a video that lasted under two minutes, bran8bit skillfully edited different parts of the song together.
Using a combination of Stakes, Beam Emitters, and a controlling mechanism, bran8bit manipulated the beams to strike the Stakes in specific patterns throughout the song. To enhance the overall musical experience, bran8bit even attached wood and sticks to some of the stakes, adding a unique percussion element.
It's not surprising that Nintendo, known for its musical prowess in the Zelda series, provided players with a means to express themselves through music. Understanding the impact of attaching Stakes, bran8bit utilized multiple sets of Zonai devices to achieve the desired effects. One set was dedicated to the main arpeggio, while additional devices were used to create the lead melody, bassline, and percussion tracks.
As each musical track played during the performance, the video cleverly emphasized the corresponding part by highlighting the beams hitting each stake. This attention to detail and creative execution captivated the attention of Twitter users, with bran8bit's video garnering over 300k views within the first six hours of posting.
Bran8bit's work in Tears of the Kingdom has received widespread praise from players, who consider it one of the finest creations to date. Despite the anticipation surrounding a possible Chrono Trigger HD-2D remake by Square Enix, it remains uncertain whether these rumors will materialize. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is currently accessible on the Nintendo Switch platform.
