The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom brings has a ton of new features. One is the addition of Fuse power, which changed my approach to combat in this game. It is a unique and powerful tool in Link's arsenal, and I had high expectations for it from the first time I saw it in a trailer. For those of you wondering what it is and how it works, I will explain everything in the guide below!
The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom Fuse power, explained
Fuse power is a newly introduced ability with which you can craft new weapons and combine objects as a part of Tears of the Kingdom's crafting system. I found it almost overwhelming to be able to craft nearly anything from the world when I saw that Link could Fuse practically any object in the world. You can generally combine the following:
- A weapon with another weapon: such a combination will create a more powerful weapon variant. For example, when I upgraded a stick by Fusing it with another stick, I made a stick with a more extended range.
- A weapon with an object: I gained additional benefits when fusing a weapon with certain objects, like bonus attack power when fusing a stick to a rock.
- An item with a Device: upgrading items with certain devices enhanced their functionality, like adding additional propulsion to Zonai Wings.

- While having an object or a weapon equipped, hold R.
