So far I haven't seen this discussed anywhere. Only now I realized that the BotW Link doesn't have a green tunic. The green tunic has been a tradition in the Zelda series. It has always been given to the hero who has the Triforce of Courage. I thought the blue clothes are just his usual clothes and he will receive the green tunic later, but so far we have seen lots of footage and he always was wearing his blue clothes. Prior to the release of all the other Zelda games, Link was always shown in his green tunic at one point.

So what does this actually mean? Is there any meaning behind this at all? Well, it's a stretch, but considering that the game plays in the demise of Hyrule timeline after Link was killed, what if the BotW Link is actually not Link? Not the descendant of the Hero of Time?

Or it could simply mean that he will get green clothes later in the game.

 

Wasn't he in blue in skyward sword too or just in the beginning?

 

Weren't those his pajamas?

 

no he wore green when he was an adult too in OOT and TP

 

I'll be disappointed if there's no classic clothes, though I feel like we wouldve seen him in them already. I think the "main clothes" will be the blue ones

 

I know that. What I meant was like the overall best clothes will probably be the blue ones

 

Depends on weather conditions and the region you're in.

 

Source or just a guess?

 

The game is green enough- they probably made Link's "default" tunic blue to make him stand out this time.

Though it does irritate me that the Green Tunic is so infused with the legendary hero, and here we have the hero without the tunic.
