One of the most overwhelming obstacles in The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker is one that many speedrunners have been trying to overcome for years. Those who have played The Wind Waker know about the tall, invisible barrier that protects Hyrule Castle underneath the Great Sea. There’s never been a viable way to get…
Cadence of Hyrule may have everyone grooving, but it can’t top the sheer weirdness of this animated Zelda short. Zelda: A Lunk Between Dance is bizarre in all the best ways. It opens with Link locked in a T-pose entering the room full of pots in Castle Town. What follows is hard to explain and even…
Banjo-Kazooie excitement and nostalgia is through the roof at the moment, with fans reveling in unprecedented joy after the duo’s reveal for the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate roster. They will soon be able to brave the Great Sea and face off with Toon Link in their Smash Bros. debut, but this mod has brought them one…
Sorry for the wait, folks, but we figured we should wait until E3 was over so we could include at least mentions of the epic announcements. It was probably worth it! If you found us through iTunes, Google Play, or some other podcatcher, then I encourage you to check out our website, zeldauniverse.net; we publish…
What better way to raise money for a good cause than a week full of Zelda? This July, the annual Zelda Dungeon Marathon is returning, this time supporting the Extra Life Charity and adding a new game to the roster. The marathon will begin July 13 and run until July 19. If you haven’t heard, the…

The event will begin on Thursday, August 1 at 3.00pm EDT (UTC-4). We’ll be playing Zelda games for 100 hours straight, until we wrap up…
Note: The Real Legend series contains explicit language and some adult themes. Viewer discretion is advised. Legends never truly die, and one fan-animated series based on The Legend of Zelda is no exception. Nearly eight years after the last episode, The Real Legend has returned once again to follow the more humorous side of Link’s…
Now that we’re all sufficiently rested from a wonderful weekend at MomoCon in Atlanta, GA, it’s time to put together some highlights from the show. The Legend of Zelda was represented by cosplayers, guests, panels, and plenty of merch in the dealer’s room. There was an abundance of Zelda cosplayers this year, and Breath of the…
Boundary Break is back to take a look at another game from the Zelda series! This time, YouTuber Shesez explores the off-camera content of Twilight Princess, specifically the Ordon Village sequence and the cutscenes at the start of the game. A couple of cool tricks that the developers used stood out in the video: First up,…
Breath of the Wild is a nearly perfect game, but why stop there? With the help of emulation, modders have been tinkering with it since launch. So far these changes have been mostly cosmetic, such as tweaking graphics settings or removing cel-shading, but a new set of tools could open up far more creative possibilities.…

Given just how packed the roster is for Super Smash Bros Ultimate, it’s hard to believe that there were only eight characters included in the original release back on the Nintendo 64. The sole representative from the Zelda series for that initial outing was of course Link, but now a clever mod from Houston Smash 64 has added…
Glitches shave off quite a bit of time during speedruns, but some games have more glitches to exploit than others. Wind Waker has the infamous barrier skip and Ocarina of Time has a variety of sequence breaks allowing speedrunners to get through the game in less than 20 minutes. Major glitches in Skyward Sword have been harder to…
If you’ve ever wished for a Legend of Zelda trading card game, apparently you’re not alone.
