===Breath of the Wild===
{{spoiler}}
In '''Breath of the Wild''', the Master Sword can be found in its pedestal in the [[Korok Forest]], guarded by the [[Great Deku Tree]]. The Great Deku Tree reveals to Link that if a person deemed to be weak attempts to draw the Master Sword from its pedestal, they will slowly lose their life. This means that Link must be powerful enough to draw the blade from its slumber and, unlike any previous incarnation, he requires at least thirteen hearts to successfully retrieve the sword. Upon taking the sword, Link will obtain a memory of the sword being placed in the pedestal; however, this memory is not actually Link's, rather, it is [[Zelda#Breath of the Wild|Princess Zelda]]'s. Zelda placed the sword in its resting place after Link's death, where the hero would come to retrieve it once more after his slumber in the [[Shrine of Resurrection]].
The Master Sword has a base strength of 30 damage, initially making it one of the weaker weapons in the game. Its true power, however, comes in the presence of evil when Link ventures to certain areas or draws near certain enemies. This includes the entirety of [[Hyrule Castle]], where Ganon's presence is most powerful. The blade will glow with a blue area, and its strength will boost to 60 damage, making it the most powerful single-handed weapon in the game.
Like all other weapons in Breath of the Wild, it can be rendered unusable after extensive use. However, it is special in that the Sword will never break, or disappear from the inventory after obtaining it. After the Sword loses its power from extensive use, it will auto-repair itself gradually and return to normal after some time. When the Master Sword is engulfed in its true power, it will never degrade, and will never require a repair while in this state.
The Master Sword plays a prominent role in Link's memories, and is once again indicated to only be useable by the chosen hero. During Link's final memory, and Zelda's memory when the Sword is retrieved, it is shown to be in a severely damaged and rusted condition, something that has not been seen in any previous Zelda game. After being placed into its resting spot by Princess Zelda, the Sword gradually regained its luster and restored itself to its most powerful state.
After Link's death during his final memory, the sword begins to flash blue and emit a sound that is the same as [[Fi|Fi]]'s in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword]]'', indicating that she is still present within the blade. Fi speaks to Princess Zelda, and tells her that Link can still be saved by taking him to the [[Shrine of Resurrection]], where he can fully recover to fight [[Calamity Ganon]] once more.
