The Legend of Zelda : Kingdom of Tears of Thunderstorm is located above the Faron region and was initially swallowed by a storm. While it is possible to weather this storm, it is not recommended. Instead, players are advised to clear The Storm of The Legend of Zelda : Kingdom Tears before exploring the Thundercloud Islands, and this guide will detail how to do so.
Note that clearing the Thunderhead Isles storm is related to the main quest for Tears of the Kingdom, and information on the names and order of some of these quests is below. As such, players trying to avoid main story spoilers may want to stop reading now, knowing they'll finally have the chance to explore the Thunderhead Isles without worrying about the weather.
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom - How to see it on Thunderhead Isles
The first step in clearing the Thunderhead Isles storm is to complete TotK's Regional Phenomenon mainline quest. For the uninitiated, this quest was posed by Purah after the Lookout Landing Skyview Tower was activated, and it asks the player to assist Rito, Zora, Goron, and Gerudo. It's certainly a major effort, and it's going to take quite a while for fans to figure it out.
Once all four races have been helped, players will return to Purah to take on a new quest that ties in with the main TotK's Crysis quest in Hyrule Castle. While the exact details of the quest won't be revealed here, to avoid further spoilers, fans will get a brand new quest from Purah after the quest is complete.
The new quest is Finding the Fifth Sage, which leads players to another quest called "Secrets of the Ruins of the Ring". Again, the exact details on how to progress between these quests won't be spelled out here, though players who need some help in the process can use TotK's full walkthrough for the main Find the Fifth Sage quest.
After starting The Secret of the Ring City Ruins, players should follow its objective, which will eventually lead them to Lake Dracozu. Here, fans will encounter a riddle that revolves around wearing a "densen" and delivering the Zonai Charge to the altar, and when the riddle is solved, the storm on the Thunderhead Isles will disappear. For those who might need a little help solving the puzzle, the full walkthrough for TotK's Secret of the Ruins of the Ring main quest has all the relevant information.
The Legend of Zelda : Tear of the Kingdom is available for Nintendo Switch.
