The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes is an action-adventure game developed and published by Nintendo, with assistance from Grezzo, for the Nintendo 3DS handheld game console. The eighteenth installment in Nintendo's The Legend of Zelda series and a direct sequel to A Link Between Worlds, it was announced at Electronic Entertainment Expo 2015 and released worldwide in October 2015.
The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes is a cooperative action-adventure game in which three players control differently colored versions of series protagonist Link and join forces to fight enemies and solve puzzles. Similar to previous multiplayer Zelda titles, such as Four Swords Adventures, players must work together, using the items they receive at the start of each level to help each other progress. One of the key puzzle-solving techniques is stacking the three player characters in a totem pole, allowing the top player to reach higher elevations, attack enemies, and perform other actions. Another game mechanic involves collecting items in order to craft outfits that grant the characters various abilities. Players share a heart meter, with all players losing one of their life fairies should the meter run out.
The game supports both local and online multiplayer gameplay, wherein players use icons on the touch screen to communicate with each other, as well as a competitive Coliseum mode. A single player can also play the game by controlling doll-like companions called "Doppels", though the main mode does not support two players without a third.Tri Force Heroes features a visual style similar to that used in A Link Between Worlds.
