Uncovering a Hidden Breath of the Wild Character in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

Fans of The Legend of Zelda series are on the hunt for the beloved bard, Kass, after a reference to him was discovered in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Kass played a significant role in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild as a wandering musician who assisted Link in his quest to defeat Calamity Ganon. The two characters developed a close friendship as Kass shared Ancient Songs with Link, a task he was entrusted with after the death of his teacher, the Court Poet. However, players are currently struggling to uncover any clues about Kass's whereabouts in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.

While progressing through the "Potential Princess Sightings!" quest in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, SuperMK77 stumbled upon a reference to Kass. Penn, a Rito NPC heavily involved in the quest, briefly mentions a famous bard who studied Hyrule's songs with Link. This is one of the few allusions to Kass in the game, along with the ballad that Link occasionally hums while cooking. Some players are speculating that Kass may make a return in new DLC for Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, complete with his own dedicated questline. This idea was sparked by Kass's prominent role as one of the main NPCs in The Champion's Ballad DLC for Zelda: Breath of the Wild.

Opinions are divided among Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom players regarding Kass's potential return. While some eagerly anticipate the character's comeback, others are disappointed by the character's absence from the game. Kass's popularity soared with his appearance in Zelda: Breath of the Wild, and given that Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is set directly after, it is likely that the character is still alive and well.

Recent datamining efforts for Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom have hinted at new DLC content, possibly featuring two new paraglider skins. Rumors suggest that this DLC may also include new locations and quests, but Nintendo has yet to confirm anything. Fans of the series should keep an eye on the company's official channels for any updates or announcements regarding new DLC content for Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is available now for Nintendo Switch.
