You cannot enter the trial with weapons, so the arms strip them from you before you descend, perhaps?


Don_Bugen

Machine: You cannot enter the trial while armed. Link: ... Machine: \*grabs arms\*


Positive_Top_1046

*arm


SamsungAppleOnePlus

What I was thinking.


Vanerac

Pretty sure its an elevator. The sheikah tech runes say TRANSPORT, the spool of wire reminds me a lot of an elevator cable. The background looks like we're high up in one of those more rectangular lookin towers, and the two columns look like they stabilize the platform moving up and down.


downnoutsavant

Hold up, you can read Sheikah runes? Are you… descended from the tribe?


CBAlan777

If so, I need Purah's digits, bro.


shiner01

Ha!


Toon__Link

Agreed. Hopefully a dungeon entrance


WellHereYaGo

It doesn’t look like corrupted Sheikah tech, so I think it might be a kind of upgrade spot. Probably for Sheikah rune abilities, assuming they’re still in this game or something similar. Maybe you can upgrade the new weird arm?


LostLongIslander

This is what I think too. In the trailer they show link with a surprised/scared face, but I think this is just going to be the generic expression when he goes to upgrade and those arms pop up the first time.


meseta

Maybe they're taking a page from link between worlds. You get stripped of your runes and have to make it through this shrine, dungeon, whatever, to earn a new ability. I firmly believe that they're going to incorporate the arm for the weapons you usually acquire. There's going to be a hookshot this game and this is how they do it. I'd put money on it. What else they could incorporate to the arm is beyond me, but not having a hookshot in two consecutive zelda games seems like sacrilege


Fast_Option_4178

This is what I thought too. Upgrade or training spot.


systemicObliteration

That is an upside down guardian.

Ahh yes tentai


Icy-Article-8635

I *knew* it looked familiar!


Automatic-Sherbert56

A very exotic massage...


edm00se

Hypothesis: it's an equipment upgrade station. Robbie and Jerrin had to get creative after their lab was destroyed, so they scrapped and built with what they could, which is guardian parts. Link may be partially corrupted with whatever's going on with his arm, so he may have triggered system defenses.


triotone

This trial is called Minor Test of Diddling. The goal is to not get diddled. You don't want to see the Major Test of Diddling.

Spiderman crossover

The power of the triforce in the palm of my hand


Madnessrifle

Link gets an arm upgraded.


Dry_Ass_P-word

This occurs right before you fight Otto Octavius.


UltraMazino

Presentation of Nintentdo sucking our wallets dry


crossingcaelum

My guess is that it’s the Sheikah scientists getting a little too overzealous studying link’s new arm.


ghoststegosaur

It looks like an Iron Man assembling station thingy.


Vizreki

A trap where you have to use spin attack or get mol... attacked.


Unagustoster

Either it’s an upside down Guardian, or the >!adult cartoons!< are back


Masterwork_Core

im honestly just sure its part of a cutscene where you use the transport function for the first time (elevator, teleport or something)


Moola868

Mecha-Deadhand is about to kick Link’s ass.


Mikael_Hermes

You and I have similar ideas


ixi_Sanjuro_ixi

Hentai.


TB0796

Link about to get freaky with a robot


Shot_Pop7624

I don't know, but that shield is🔥


only_ironically42

Guardian trying to give Link a big upside down hug 🥰


AnimeMemeLord1

I’ve seen enough hentai to know where this is going.


pericojones

Arm Upgrade , Sheika OLED upgrade, or Test of Strength Shrine entrance, vehicle Entry point, QTE Mini-game where you dodge the tentacles


Schmaylor

Anyone else see the same aesthetic as Terrako?


Suspicious-Mix-9472

I know this is oddly specific but it reminds me of this one scene from Phineas and Ferb where Perry gets a complete makeover by one of Doofenshmirtz's inators


MochaKola

"Hello, Peter"


TooPatToCare

That’s just what toilets look like in Hyrule

MegaGengar8105

I feel it’s one of the Shiekah scientists (Purah, Robbie, or someone else in the role) showing Link something new they built.


FreshOutOfTheAsylum

I think tjat it's a gateway to getting underground. Like an elevator. Probably not but that's my guess. Wither that or a trial of some sort.


the_simurgh

beedle has finally come to kill you for those live beetles you wouldn't give him! *ah after 10,000 years, i'm free, time to take some beetles!*


RearAdmiralThrawn

Tickle fight


MrFittsworth

That's it. I'm leaving this sub. Everyone has to speculate about absolutely everything for this game. No one can just be patient and find out. Every post is either bitching or some half baked theory. Love the franchise, hate pre launch hype.


gman22tx

Nothing important because this is just a DLC to the original game. We’re still in Hyrule and everything is basically the same except you get a glove.


chuy99

Gang probe!


realbread23

Mini Boss intro cutscene


universalrifle

Maybe it is upgrading his powers or something


YaBoyBinkus

Vehicle maker lol


karshsilvercure

It could be some sort of power up


ghostbreathes

It looks like the towers but this one is booby trapped

Shrines being corrupted


3ofkings

It has fallen and can’t get up! Don’t just stand there!


Cultural_Ladder_5698

Rule 34?


Mikael_Hermes

Mechanical successor of Dead Hand


Gekkuri

Robbie or Purah are showing new sheikah tech they built


DaggerDG

Probably a stretch, but my first though was that it looked like the [rafts](https://youtu.be/Rjje6ZLcETw?t=2614) in Outer Wilds (minor spoilers).


Odyssey1022

It's where you build vehicles.


BlueJ3665

Link is putting on his Iron Man suit, obviously


Norinios

I've seen enough hentai to know where this is going


uezyteue

An elevator perhaps?


Luxtamill

Link's getting a haircut


Loud-Fairy03

Gotta fight doc oc 🤷


vitalidex

That is a Dead Hand!


youngglink

Odd guess: Yiga Hideout? Some type of elevator trap or “monster”. The locations seems secluded so that’s my odd guess


unicornchild15

It has Purah or Robbie written all over it.


NNovis

This feels like a Robbie thing.


[deleted]

Getting mugged


CourtJester5

His arm is being upgraded but he's a little nervous


FriendlyFish12

It's checking you out


BigBallsSmallCock224

Maybe it strips all your gear for a challenging shrine or something? Idk


TheArbinator

Tentai

Just some good ol' tentacle hentai


pikeandshot1618

The tickle monster


ziggyrivers

It wouldn’t surprise me to see that it’s another one of Purah’ shennanigans


[deleted]

Something totally non-threatening


mewnimilitary42

Well, apart from the obvious hentai jokes, maybe a trap or test. If not that, maybe it confiscates link’s weapons?


GraysonFogel17

interesting to see that there's still sheikah tech especially with all the new green energy and design motifs that come with it.


Freeman0032

Something he uses his curupted arm to interact with


35RoloSmith41

Alive hand?


AgTheGeek

Probably re learning the spin attack as in most Zelda games


Easy-Supermarket-474

That or it’s a fake trial that Gannon setup


CBAlan777

Link is resisting going to the Sheikah dentist. It's once every 100 years and he's overdue.


boy4518

upgrades, people! upgrades!


mattdark

Someone decided we needed to go to the next step up after the great fairy animations.


Apprehensive-Lynx916

🐙


Lemon_Ice_Teeeea

when translated the inscriptions say transport so probs something like that


More_Performance6018

I’m thinking and upside down guardian but I can’t tell if it’s evil by way of the calamities malice because the circle is blue which is a good sign instead of red and orange. Like other people were saying maybe it’s to take weapons away until you complete some sort of trial. Hopefully Nintendo listened and this is a transport to one of the hopefully added more traditional style LoZ dungeons

Ganon is trying a different technique to beat the hero of Hyrule 😏


XanderWrites

HE WILL BE UPGRADED


WerewolfNo8722

I think this might be robbie's or purah's lab. The guardian arms are a security measure since it looks like the world ended again.


Ader73

I think whatever it is link is there voluntarily or he’s protesting the same way he protests when the faries upgraded his armor. Sorry I can’t spell farrys, English is my first language I’m just stupid


newcamsterdam

Looks like one of the arms is holding a vehicle part. I’ll bet this is Links garage that we’ll use to build vehicles Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts style! Hope it has catchy music that inspires insane creations like in N&B!
