 In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]'', the Master Sword is obtained by collecting the three [[Pendants of Virtue]] from the three temples in the [[Light World]] across [[Hyrule]]. Once Link has them, he finds the Master Sword in the [[Lost Woods (A Link to the Past)|Lost Woods]], discarding any [[Fake Master Sword]]s he finds on the way.

Link needs to place the three [[Spiritual Stones]] on the temple's altar, which can be found in the three dungeons from the Child Timeline across Hyrule. [[Sheik]] describes the blade as a ship that sails across time; obviously referencing the ability of it to take Link back and forth between childhood and adulthood. After defeating [[Ganon]], Link places the Master Sword back into its pedestal. This creates a split in the [[timeline]].

-In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|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 (These hearts must be permanent [[Heart Container|heart containers]]: using consumables that [[Temporary Heart|temporarily increase your maximum hearts]] will not allow you to obtain the Master Sword). Upon taking the sword, Link will obtain [[The Master Sword (Memory)|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.

+====Background and Obtaining the Sword====
+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 (These hearts must be permanent [[Heart Container|heart containers]]: using consumables that [[Temporary Heart|temporarily increase Link's maximum hearts]] will not allow him to obtain the Master Sword).
+The Great Deku Tree will prevent Link from dying if he fails to lift it the first time, but Link will die upon further attempts with not enough hearts. Upon taking the sword, Link will obtain [[The Master Sword (Memory)|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 [[Zelda's Awakening|Link's near-death]], where the hero would come to retrieve it once more after his slumber in the [[Shrine of Resurrection]].
+It is not necessary for Link to have a free Weapons slot to pick up the Master Sword, though it occupies a permanent inventory space when picked up; this slot does not affect the number of slots that can be obtained through the exchange of [[Korok Seed]]s.
+The Master Sword plays a prominent role in Link's memories, and is once again indicated to only be usable 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]]'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.

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. Completing all three sections of the [[Trial of the Sword]], from the [[Breath of the Wild Expansion Pass]] "The Master Trials" DLC, upgrades it by 10 points per section, to ultimately be in the "awakened" 60 damage/glowing state at all times:

 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 gain a huge durability boost.
-The Master Sword plays a prominent role in Link's memories, and is once again indicated to only be usable 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.
+The Master Sword can shoot blade beams of energy when Link has full health. The distance covered by the beams depends on Link's total hearts at full health (the more hearts, the more distance), and the rate and frequency of beam shooting can be enhanced by wearing specific armor sets like the ★★-tier [[Hero of the Wild Set]]. Each beam spends one point of damage on the weapon.
+The Master Sword is part of the [[Hyrule Compendium]], and should a picture not have been taken before acquiring it, as the sword cannot be dropped to take a picture from a distance, a picture can be obtained by taking a selfie with the [[Camera (Rune)|Camera Rune]], or by purchasing pictures at bulk from [[Symin]].
-After Link's death during his final memory, the sword begins to flash blue and emit a sound that is the same as [[Fi]]'s in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword]]'', indicating that she is still present within the blade.

 In ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'', the Master Sword serves as a power-up in the ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' theme which transforms Mario (or the other playable characters) into Link, with a full set of typical Link moves. This includes using the Master Sword to stab, [[Downward Thrust|down thrust]] and [[Dash Attack|dash attack]]. The power-up is lost if Link takes damage.
+===''Skyrim''===
+In the Switch release of ''Skyrim'', the player can use [[Amiibo]] for items. The Zelda series Amiibo have a chance of giving the player gear from ''Breath of the Wild''. Among these is the Master Sword, which is essentially just an Elven Sword. Oddly enough, however, the Master Sword never gets blood on it.
