In the Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, players can now use new abilities while exploring Hyrule. The Fuse and Ultrahand abilities offer a wide range of creativity, from crafting bridges to creating flamethrower shields while the Recall and Ascend abilities offer manipulation over the environment like phasing through ceilings or sending large rocks back into the sky.

Each of these skills will be required to work through shrines, explore the changes landscapes of Hyrule, and face off against the many enemies lurking in each region. Additionally, players can truly write their own story as Link in Tears of the Kingdom, as the abilities offer creative freedom that wasn’t possible in the first game.

Below is everything players need to know about the new abilities in Tears of the Kingdom, and how to unlock them.

Every Ability in Tears of the Kingdom

After much exploration, five abilities have been discovered in Tears of the kingdom. Below are all the details for Ascend, Fuse, Recall, Ultrahand, and Autobuild.

Thankfully, each of these abilities is given with a solid tutorial, ensuring players will be able to use them as soon as they leave the Great Sky Island tutorial. The only exception to this is Autobuild, which is obtained at a later point in the game. We quickly started using Fuse on all of our weapons and can’t say enough positive things about a Sword with a piece of Amber at the end of the blade. It’s both aesthetically pleasing and powerful in a fight.

These new abilities ensure players will have a fresh experience in Tears of the Kingdom, and have resulted in some of the most incredible player creations. For example, most players have learned how to build colossal bridges for every puzzle or torture Koroks, one managed to build a TIE Fighter, and another has created the ultimate APC for any terrain.
