A person beginning Breath of the Wild for the first time may find themselves willingly spending hours on the Great Plateau before taking a single step into the greater world of Hyrule. I know I did despite having played through the demo at E3. It took me about five hours before I decided I was ready to…
Today, the North American Nintendo localization team — known by their more familiar name, Nintendo Treehouse — announced that they have joined Tumblr in an effort to give Nintendo fans a peek behind the curtains at Nintendo of America’s most secretive department. Dubbed the Nintendo Treehouse Log, the Tumblr account will give followers a look at…
The Legend of Zelda: Art & Artifacts only recently made its way to international shores, and already Japan has their hands on the next book, The Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Encyclopedia.

Luckily, Nintendo is willing to enable our Zelda addiction by offering two official wallpapers for both smartphones and computers, as thanks to all of the fans. The first — my favorite of the two — is a group shot of Princess Zelda’s Champions. I…
The amount of details, hidden mechanics, quests, and Easter eggs in Breath of the Wild is staggering. It seems every day brings a new quirk or discovery that makes the game even better than it already is. Amidst all of this mining for secrets, Seaniccus believes he has found a touching tribute to late Nintendo president Satoru Iwata.…
Japan has aired a special Breath of the Wild commercial in celebration of the original Legend of Zelda’s release, and Nintendo of America has just tweeted a screenshot of something new that’s shown in the commercial!

As physical and digital copies of Game Informer’s Breath of the Wild issue are making their way to mailboxes and inboxes, the magazine is continuing its month-long look at the new Legend of Zelda game.

Dark Horse Comics has announced a collaboration with Barnes and Noble Booksellers to celebrate the release of the upcoming Zelda art book, Art & Artifacts.

The prospect of DLC coming to Breath of the Wild has been a topic of discussion for almost as long as we’ve known the rough size of the game’s overworld. All of that space would offer plenty of room to toss in future content post-release, after all. Luckily, Nintendo was thinking along the same lines. Today, Eiji Aonuma…
Previously, the Legend of Zelda Facebook page shared with its followers a screenshot of Link arriving to a Shrine. The image was a familiar one to anyone who has seen anything of the Breath of the Wild coverage since E3 2016, leaving some to wonder if we would see anymore fresh images before the game’s release on March 3.…
Nintendo has released several Breath of the Wild trailers over the past few months, and there’s no shortage of devoted fans recreating the scenes and music via older games or unique methods.

The Minish Cap is one of my top five favorite Zelda games, and one of the manga I’ve been most looking forward to seeing put into the Legendary Edition format. Now that wait is nearly over! The front and back cover of the fourth Legendary Edition has been revealed. This volume collects both The Minish Cap and Phantom Hourglass together in a…
More and more, Breath of the Wild is touting itself as a customizable Zelda experience for new and old fans. With endless possibilities on how to approach the game’s story and combat it’s doubtful any one playthrough will be the same as another. This customization extends even to the options menu, as Gehab learned during his recent experience demoing…
The days until Breath of the Wild’s release are dwindling, but that isn’t stopping the official Legend of Zelda Facebook page from continuing to post concept art and screenshots from the game.
