The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is a lot of things: It's a glorious reinvention of a legendary franchise, a marquee launch title for the Nintendo Switch and perhaps one of the most effusively praised games in years. There are plenty of reasons to look forward to it.It's also a game where you can play dress-up with series hero Link in more ways than ever before.What follows is a very minor spoiler for a certain quest in Breath of the Wild. Stop reading if you want to go in completely cold. But we're really excited about it, so hopefully it's worth the mild spoiler.Here it is: Link wears a (women's) Gerudo outfit, and he looks awesome. Make Link look totally fabulous in Zelda: Breath of the WildBusiness Insider's Ben Gilbert wrote about in Breath of the Wild that involves the Gerudo tribe, which has been painfully MIA since the 1998 classic Ocarina of Time. The Gerudos are back in Link's newest adventure, and they still have the same strict no-dudes policy as always.In Breath of the Wild, Link must find himself some Gerudo garb and disguise himself to get into their village. Here's what that looks like.
