In Breath of the Wild, Link must traverse through Hyrule to activate the four weapons strong enough to defeat Calamity Ganon; The Divine Beasts. Although the game emphasised how powerful these awesome automatons are, the player never got a chance to play as them... until now.

If you thought your characters feel overpowered, you haven't seen anything until you pilot one of the Divine Beasts. There is nothing more satisfying in Age of Calamity than taking charge of one of these godlike constructions and decimating a thousand enemies at a time.

You thought those Lynels or the Stone Taluses were tough in Breath of the Wild? You can take out ten of them at a time while navigating through Hyrule as Vah Rudania or Vah Ruta. You can soar the skies as Vah Medoh while unleashing an onslaught of destruction upon Ganon's forces below. Using these stone deities, you can annihilate a Molduga in one fell swoop, decimate an enemy base with your laser cannon, or obliterate an entire cave with a single step.

Fierce Deity Link, eat your heart out.
