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 leaving it outclassed by a multitude of other single-handed weapons. 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 aura, and its strength will boost to 60 damage, making it the most powerful single-handed weapon in the game.
