Character in the Final Trailer resembles Demise

Zelda TotK - Final Trailer Character
An ominous figure appears briefly in the Final Trailer that resembles Demise due to the simarities between the fiery red hair, body shape, and the scale-like markings on the arms. We speculate that this may be the Demon King himself or possibly a powered-up version of Ganondorf.

Demise's Role in Previous Games

Deity that Conquered Time Itself

According to the legend told at the beginning of Skyward Sword, Demise is a deity that conquered time itself and is the source of all monsters.

Seeking to take the Triforce for himself, Demise pillaged the lands. This forced The Goddess Hylia to send the survivors into the sky and launch an attack against Demise to seal him away.

Final Boss of Skyward Sword

Demise, the Demon King, is the final boss of Skyward Sword. Although Link triumphs in the battle, Demise curses him and Zelda to be haunted by his reincarnated hatred. This reincarnation is Ganon, the recurring antagonist in most Zelda games.
