The Zelda series is certainly not known for its direct sequels. Most games act as their own independent stories, connected by no more than some subtleties regarding the overall timeline, so one could say that it is a pleasant change of pace to see a series title get a direct sequel – a game featuring events that directly follow the previous game, or happen in the same world, but occur at a later time, like in Majora’s Mask or A…

Breath of the Wild is proving to be a juggernaut of a Zelda title, with a grand world for us all to explore in our own way. But as of yet, we do not know the details of why we are exploring. The story is still quite a mystery. What is clear, though, is that since this is likely to become a new basis for the style of future Zelda games, a whole new world of stories and plot lines…

There have been some dark aspects of the Zelda series that are easily some of the more memorable parts of each game. The eerie, ominous places that Link often travels to are filled to the brim with danger, but what is usually the harbinger of that danger is a whole load of ghosts. From characters to monsters to bosses, ghosts have shown up in Zelda since the first game’s release 30 years ago, and it has not slowed down to…

In this age of the internet, gamers are bombarded with images of and information about a game months, if not years, prior to release. As such, the box art of a game is often forgotten about. However, before the time of sites like ZeldaDungeon, the box art offered one of the only looks that players would get at a game before they actually popped it into their console. In this weeks ZD Top 5, our staff counts down their five…
