It's hard to believe, but some The Legend of Zelda fans are discovering a neat secret in one of the series' most popular entries, 23 years later. Zelda has always had a knack for fun secrets, puzzles, and franchise references, but this Wind Waker secret is making even series veterans turn their heads and attempt to jog their memories to look back and try to remember if it was in the original release of the game in 2002.
In an X post by Oramni, the user has posted a Wind Waker video clip of Link standing next to a statue and the statue falling asleep if Link stands nearby long enough. Several users are now questioning whether this secret was added in the Wii U remaster, and are also expressing surprise. [ Piper Prime ] even said: "HUH, what in the world is that?! I've never seen this before. That's horrifying."
The sleeping statue startles Link, and he gives a shocked expression as the water statue falls asleep and then wakes itself. Several fans are commenting on its creepiness, like Lucas, who wrote: "Yeah that freaked me out as a kid a little bit." The statues are part of the merchant questline...
