In the newest franchise entry, The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom, players will have the option of choosing Hero Mode from the very start.
This differentiates the title from its predecessors, where you had to complete the entire game to unlock harder modes.
The news is a breath of fresh air for series veterans, many of whom would prefer a more challenging experience.
People initially spotted this new feature during PAX West 2024, during the game's first official demo.

The way we see it, there are no drawbacks to this new feature as it gives something for both franchise newbies and grizzled veterans.
