Modder “MaxLastBreath” has released a new version of his UltraCam Mod for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. This update adds a classic top-down camera, allowing you to play the game like the old-school NES and SNES Zelda titles. So, if you are an old-school Zelda fan, you should definitely check it out.
Going into more details, this top-down camera was massively inspired by TLOZ Link’s Awakening and Echoes of Wisdom. What’s also cool is that UltraCam currently supports multiple camera modes to make a lot of the different game scenarios playable.
To showcase this new top-down camera, the modder shared the following video. This video will give you an idea of what you can expect from it. So, be sure to watch it.
As you will see, you can rotate the camera with the snap-camera rotation mode. This is a quick way to rotate the camera. However, the modder has also added a smooth rotation mode. So, if you want a smoother rotation, you can use that one.
To my surprise, the game works great and is really fun to play with the new top-down camera mode. Honestly, it looks so good that many people might think it’s an official mode. So, kudos to the modder for creating something this awesome.
UltraCam will also unlock the game’s framerate. As such, PC gamers can enjoy Tears of the Kingdom with 60FPS on PC. Moreover, it optimizes the physics to run effectively at higher frame rates. On top of that, it allows you to increase the internal resolution. Thus, you can enjoy the game at 8K.
You can go ahead and download the latest version of the UltraCam mod from this link.
I also recommend using this 4K Texture Pack for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. This mod will upgrade all of the game’s textures. So, it’s a must for everyone who wants to make the game look a bit sharper.
Enjoy and stay tuned for more!
