Though graphically similar to the previous Legend of Zelda entry on Nintendo's portable, Link's latest outing on the DS is looking to innovate on a few different levels, aside from the already apparent "train challenges" seen in earlier trailers. One new component of the gameplay involves players controlling the heavily-armored Phantom Knight, who is used as an auxiliary character to help solve puzzles and reach inaccessible areas; one example is Link riding the Phantom Knight through a sea of lava to avoid green leotard burns. The knight can also be used to trigger door locks and removing obstructions, with the player switching back and forth between controlling Link and the Phantom Knight.
