Though Link has discovered some really interesting new abilities in his newest outing, climbing is a major part of the experience in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. You’ll spend quite a lot of time moving your way up the sides of cliffs to reach new areas, and sometimes you’ll even need to do so in icy tundras. But certain walls in those cold and dangerous areas can’t be climbed without the Froggy gear set. If you need to climb some slippery walls, read below to find the Froggy gear set first.

How to get the Froggy Armor set in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

Getting the Froggy gear set requires you to first head over to Lucky Clover Gazette to the east of Rito Village. Here, you’ll find Traysi inside, so speak to her to begin a long and winding quest called “Potential Princess Sightings.” This quest asks you to visit nearly all of the game’s stables, most of which should come naturally as you explore Hyrule.

At each stable you visit, you’ll need to speak with Penn, a Rito who will give you some additional quests that have you aid him in his newspaper reporting. As you complete quests for the dedicated reporter, you’ll unlock parts of the Froggy gear set, so you’ll need to see the questline through if you want to get all three pieces. It’s worth the effort, though, as being able to climb quickly up slippery slopes can make all of the difference in certain sections of the game.

It looks like you’ll still be able to play as Link in Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom

Fans are excited for The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom for a lot of reasons, but chief among them is that you can finally play as Princess Zelda after decades of playing as Link. However, that doesn't mean Link is completely out of the picture. In fact, it's looking like he's still playable in some capacity.

The ESRB has rated the game E10+ due to fantasy violence, and the official page for that information contains a short summary of said violence. It describes Zelda's combat style (she has a magic wand called a Tri Rod that can summon creatures), but also Link's. Specifically, as Link, you can "use a sword and arrows to defeat enemies."

Nintendo just proved me wrong about the Switch
Zelda stares at a landscape in The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom.

It was only one month ago when I proclaimed that the Nintendo Switch was in its "filler era." At the time, Nintendo was riding a wave of re-releases and left-field oddities that made it clear that its console's life was winding down. We were knee deep in a return to the Nintendo 3DS' final days, with the console going out quietly as developers saved their big guns for Nintendo's next system.

Now, I'm eating my words. And I'm happy to do it.
