The courageous princess of Hyrule and heir to a power that imprisons darkness.
Ganondorf
The mighty Demon King. Could he be connected to the strange events happening across Hyrule?
Rauru
A mysterious figure who claims the strange arm Link finds himself with was once his.
Tulin
A skilled archer and son of the Rito elder, Teba.
Sidon

A quest that takes you to new heights!
Decide your own path through the sprawling landscapes of Hyrule and the mysterious islands floating in the vast skies above.
The sky…
Mysterious floating islands have suddenly appeared in the skies above Hyrule. Link must use his newly-acquired abilities to navigate the islands and unlock the secrets they hold.
…the surface...
The sky isn’t the only thing that’s changed in Hyrule. Familiar locations have been dramatically transformed, with new towns, dank caves, and mysterious gaping chasms springing up across the world – all waiting to be explored!
…and the Depths
The Upheaval in Hyrule has opened up great chasms in the land that lead to the Depths, a vast expanse of unexplored territory lying far below the surface, shrouded in mystery.
Wield new abilities
Transform the way you play using Link’s new abilities.
Ultrahand
Using the new Ultrahand ability, Link can pick up and move almost any object, and can even bond items together to create bridges, vehicles, and more.
Fuse
Magically fuse almost any object to Link’s current weapon, shield, or arrow to increase durability, damage, or even add a new effect. Experiment with lots of different combinations to come up with surprising results!
Ascend
Add a new dimension to your exploration with Ascend, which gives Link the ability to pass through solid objects above him. Rise up through ceilings, hillsides, and even certain enemies to create seemingly impossible shortcuts.
Recall
Use Recall to make objects in motion move backward through time, letting Link ride fallen boulders skyward, recover thrown weapons, or send projectiles back where they came from.
Unleash your imagination!
Here are just some of the ways Link can tap into his new abilities in creative – and sometimes surprising – ways.
Explore
Link must travel across the far-reaching land and skies of Hyrule to discover the origins of the mysterious gloom that is plaguing the kingdom.
Create
Use Link’s powerful new abilities like Ultrahand and Fuse to make audacious weapons and craft creative ways to travel across the landscape.
Discover
Find new ways to build, battle, and play as you try to uncover the secret menace that threatens Hyrule.
Compatible with amiibo
You can tap select amiibo figures (sold separately) to unlock valuable in-game items to help Link in his adventure!
By tapping one of the amiibo shown above or an amiibo from The Legend of Zelda series, you can receive weapons and materials, as well as a paraglider fabric.
