The Master Sword makes an appearance in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds|A Link Between Worlds]]'', and is the same blade from ''A Link to the Past''. It can be found in the Lost Woods and cannot be obtained until after Link has collected the [[Pendants of Virtue]] and finds his way through the woods.

The Master Sword replaces the [[Forgotten Sword]] and features enhanced strength over his previous sword, and like its prequel, a sword beam can be shot out of the Master Sword whenever Link has full health. It can be upgraded to deal more damage if Link acquires two [[Master Ore]]s and gives them to the [[Blacksmith]] in [[Hyrule]], and he can further upgrade the Master Sword if he takes two more [[Master Ore]] to the Blacksmith in [[Lorule]]. When upgraded, the Master Sword Lv2 has a red blade while the Master Sword Lv3 has a golden blade, much like the [[Tempered Sword]] and the [[Golden Sword]] respectively in ''A Link to the Past''. | |||
