The ''Legend of Zelda Encyclopedia'' indicates that Link retains the Magical Sword between ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]'' and ''[[Zelda II: The Adventure of Link]]''{{Ref|''The Legend of Zelda Encyclopedia'', pg. 81}}. During the events of ''The Adventure of Link'', Link never upgrades his sword; instead, he can use experience gained in battle to improve his attack power.

During the events of ''The Adventure of Link'' it cannot be upgraded; instead, Link can increase his attack power with experience points gained in battle. The sword can also be used to pick up things like [[Point Bag]]s and [[Key]]s. Like in ''The Legend of Zelda'', Link can produce a [[Sword Beam]] when his health is full.

Its design is loosely based on the Magical Sword from the LOZ Instruction Booklet, most obviously in the blue and red grip. It also incorporates the "three triangles" Triforce design introduced in ''[[Zelda II: The Adventure of Link|The Adventure of Link]]'' and used as one of the main branding elements of the Zelda series thereafter.
