The Koroks we first met in The Wind Waker have come a long way since their more recent Zelda appearances: for better and for worse. Regardless on whether or not you want to strap a Zonai rocket to a Korok’s back, these memorable creatures can now be yours as they can hold on to something aside from a simple seed. This new Korok comes to us from Etsy merchant DiDiSensei as they are selling a 3D-printed Korok Statue Pencil Holder. The…

Composer Giovanni Rotondo has been working hard on a fan-sourced album honoring the Stable Trotters from Tears of the Kingdom, with everything about the album being decided on by fans as a collaborative community project. In the first in a series of “Choice Quests,” fans chose the track list for the album, which will feature arrangements from Breath of the Wild, The Wind Waker, Twilight Princess, and more. Now, the second Choice Quest, which addressed the album’s cover art, has…

Last week, a fan-created high-definition PC port of The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening DX was made available on indie video game platform Itch.io. Described by its creator as a “meticulously crafted PC version” of the Game Boy Color classic, the port, titled Link’s Awakening DX HD, boasts “enhanced graphics,” “widescreen support,” “high framerate support,” and more. Zelda Dungeon has chosen not to publish links to Link’s Awakening DX HD‘s Itch.io page or to any online sources that have shared…

Of all the cozy locations in the Zelda series, the Lumpy Pumpkin is one of the most overlooked cozy places in the entire series. This fine establishment, which is located on Pumpkin Landing near the green Column of Light, is one of the most memorable locations in Skyward Sword. The Lumpy Pumpkin is run by the curmudgeonly Pumm and his friendly daughter Kina. The player can have a lot of fun in and around the Lumpy Pumpkin and Pumpkin Landing….

Lurelin Village beware! The latest Godzilla film just released internationally, and it seems one Zelda fan was ahead of the game with hype, bringing the monster straight to Hyrule. It didn’t take long after Tears of the Kingdom’s release for fans to realize the boundless potential of the Ultrahand ability. From Gundam to TIE Fighters, creative fans have engineered all sorts of contraptions. One such engineer by the name of sumogori2323 on X (formerly Twitter) has taken to recreating a…

If you’re like me, you’re either tripping over a controller cord or stubbing your toe on the coffee table on an almost nightly basis. You might ask yourself, “How have I met with such a terrible fate?” Thanks to creators like Melodic Artisan, you can walk confidently through your home at night with these Korok night light decorations. Coming in a variety of designs, and even including one of Hestu, these little lamps come in three sizes, maxing out at…

Like many of you, I have received my “Spotify Wrapped” this week, informing me of all the cringey music I’ve been listening to in secret. The not-cringey-but-actually-awesome ZREO: Second Quest showed up on my top five artists, as I frequently find myself visiting their orchestral versions of Zelda songs in search of some filling nostalgia. I was surprised, however, to find my Wrapped story accompanied by a video of lead composer Ari Barack Fisher thanking me for my support, and…

Composer Giovanni Rotondo has taken on the endeavor of crafting an album based upon Tears of the Kingdom‘s musical troupe The Stable Trotters. We recently covered a lot of the details on his upcoming album here, but we now have some updates on the collaborative fan project and the results of the first audience polling initiative which helped settle on a final tracklist. According to Rotondo, fans’ participation in the Stable Trotters project thus far has been “extraordinary,” and their…

As one of the more eerie dungeons to crawl through in Ocarina of Time, the Forest Temple comes off as a haunted mansion when Link discovers its confines. Haunted by a small group of deadly Poes and all manner of creepy crawlies, there’s no easy way to get through this maze of a temple. Even if you do make it through all the dungeon-filled frights, you still have Phantom Ganon awaiting you at the end. That’s why it’s so interesting…
