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…
Welcome… to Fall Brawl! Summer may be over, but don’t despair: that just means we can officially get the hype train rolling on the second annual Fall Brawl Character Contest! After the smashing success of 2019’s tournament, we’re looking forward to seeing what Zelda character you guys vote as the best in 2020! You guys know the drill by now: 64 Zelda characters enter, and in a spin on a regular NCAA-style tournament, these characters compete in matches throughout the…

What is the greatest dungeon in the Zelda series? A simple question on the surface, but one with so many layers that it makes finding an answer almost impossible. How does one define ‘great’? Is it the dungeon layout? Perhaps the ways the dungeon item is implemented into the puzzles? Or is it the bombastic boss fight at the end? Surely the music and overall aesthetic play a part? And to be honest – what does being a dungeon in…
Hello everybody and WELCOME BACK to the second annual MUSICAL MARCH MADNESS. The premise is simple: 64 songs will go head to head in a series of single elimination matches, with the winner advancing to the next round, until there is only ONE song left standing that can be called the Greatest Zelda Song Ever. This post will be updated DAILY with new match-ups, so make sure you bookmark it. Polls will last 24 HOURS, STARTING AND ENDING AT 5…
A new decade may now be upon us, but we at Zelda Dungeon wanted to take one final look at the decade that was before we shut the door on it completely. The 2010’s can be seen as a rollercoaster ride for The Legend of Zelda, full of many euphoric highs and a few disappointing lows. But with all things said and done, it’s hard to look back at the past ten years and say that the series didn’t experience…
I can’t believe it’s that time already, but here we are: it’s time for Zelda Dungeon’s 2019 Edition of the Best. Zelda. Ever! Two Zelda games were released this year — one a remake, and one a spinoff — but maybe most crucially, the next mainline installment of the series was teased at E3 when Nintendo revealed the sequel to Breath of the Wild was to be released! Exciting times are ahead for Zelda fans no doubt, but let’s focus…
Welcome… to Fall Brawl! I’m very excited to be here hosting this tournament. You might remember a few months ago, we hosted Zelda Dungeon’s Musical March Madness — a twist on the traditional college basketball tournament that featured an NCAA-style bracket, but with tunes from the Zelda series in place of basketball teams. The concept was such a success and our readers had so much fun with it, we’ve decided to make it a semi-annual event. To this end, we…
Summer is officially over Zelda fans, but don’t dismay – that means that we can now officially get FALL BRAWL underway! For those of you who participated in Zelda Dungeon’s Musical March Madness, a competition to determine the best piece of music in the Zelda series, this concept will feel familiar. 64 Zelda characters will face off in a NCAA-style elimination bracket to determine who is the most popular! Characters have all been assigned seeds and a division… who will…
