The Fight for the Sunken Kingdom of Hyrule has Begun in this Guitar Cover of the Ganondorf Battle Theme from The Wind Waker
Posted on March 19 2018 by Kristen G. Rosario
I have said it a million times and I’ll say it again: Ganondorf from The Wind Waker is my favorite wielder of the Triforce of Power. His reasons as to why he wants Hyrule back are more than justified and make for one of my favorite scenes in the Zelda series. That scene is all-the-more strengthened by a heavy-hearted theme fitting the capable antagonist.
The cover we’re looking at today comes to us from Game & Sound, who performs an epic guitar cover of Ganondorf’s Battle theme music from The Wind Waker. Just watching the fight on the bottom-right of this video brings back memories of this clash when I first played it. And hearing Game & Sound’s awesome riffs brings a freshness to the now-iconic theme.
G&S has also worked on covers of songs from Majora’s Mask, Breath of the Wild, and Ocarina of Time, as well as other non-Zelda titles like Sonic, Final Fantasy, Pokémon, Castlevania.
What do you think of this cover? Will be checking out any more of Game & Sound’s work? Let us know in the comments below!
