It’s here! It’s finally here! With another calendar year quickly coming to a close, it is time once again for us to present Zelda Dungeon’s proudest tradition: Best Zelda Ever! At the end of every year, the amazing team here at ZD comes together to rank every single Zelda title from worst to best. The task is never easy, but this year’s ranking proved particularly challenging due to some major shakeups. Not only did we, as we always do, see new…
The new year is upon us, and as always, it’s a time to feel both reflective on what’s happened and optimistic of what’s to come. With the calendar closing on 2021, the year of “Zelda 35″ is officially done, but the horizon has never been more exciting for Zelda fans. With Breath of the Wild 2 (supposedly) releasing this year, we’ll finally have our next mainline installment that can carry the torch and run with it, while the possibilities for…
It’s the most wonderful time of the year! No, not Christmas — it’s Zelda Dungeon’s annual BEST. ZELDA. EVER! This year was an exciting and eventful year for the Legend of Zelda series, as we saw a couple new releases and a tease of what’s to come. Just missing the cuff of last year’s Best Zelda Ever list was Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity, a game that was billed as the prequel to Breath of the Wild, which will enter…
The Blood Moon rises once again. That is to say, it will rise once again. On May 26th, a “Super Flower Blood Moon” will be visible from most of the mainland United States, Hawaii, Oceania, eastern Asia and Antarctica. And we all know what that means. Villains and enemies, new and old, will be returning from the grave! But fear not; Zelda Dungeon has you covered. In celebration of the upcoming lunar eclipse, from 5/23 to 5/30, we wanted to…
The Results are in! And the winner of Zelda Dungeon’s 2021 Musical March Madness is none other than: Midna’s Lament from The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess! An odds-on favorite from the beginning, it has many fans in the ZD community who will be happy to see it at the top of the pile. Listen to Midna’s Lament, once more in honor of its victory! Now announcing the winner of the bracket predictions, along with all the bragging rights here…

Today marks the 35th anniversary of The Legend of Zelda, a series that has captured the hearts of multiple generations of gamers, given so many fans the opportunity to be legendary heroes, and inspired so many video games to follow in its footsteps.

The end of this year is rapidly approaching, which means that it’s time for my favorite annual tradition here at Zelda Dungeon: Best. Zelda. Ever! While no new Zelda games were released this year, we did have some DLC come out for Cadence of Hyrule and we’re looking forward to the upcoming release of a new Hyrule Warriors game: Age of Calamity! The prequel to Breath of the Wild just missed the cut for this year’s list, so you’ll have…
It may be hard to believe, but The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask will be celebrating its 20-year anniversary this month. Released on April 27th, 2000, the “dark horse” of 3D Zelda titles introduced us to the the darker, more emotional side of the beloved franchise. Despite being a follow-up to one of the most acclaimed video game adventures of its day, Majora’s Mask built a lasting legacy all its own with its creative gameplay risks, its emotionally-charged story, and its cast of…
It’s hard to believe that it’s been a year since the release of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, arguably the greatest Smash Bros. game yet and inarguably one of the biggest pieces of fan service Nintendo has ever released to its fans. One of the things that makes the road to a new Smash Bros. game seem more exciting than your run-of-the-mill Nintendo game is the constant buzz around which characters we might see join the brawl. The last two installments…
