Ranking Every Legend Of Zelda Game

Legend of Zelda is one of the best-known gaming franchises. Nintendo’s team of crack developers consistently releases great games that are often contenders for Game of the Year. 

To focus on The Legend of Zelda’s core titles, we have omitted several obscure and spin-off games. Hyrule Warriors is not on the list, nor are Cadence of Hyrule or Link’s Crossbow Training. Even with those missing, we still have 21 games where Link battles the forces of evil to save Zelda, Hyrule, or whatever equivalent exists in that respective game. We must also consider the impact and legacy of the series, along with how fun it is to play the games today.

Zelda has not yet failed despite its many releases in the past three decades. It is worth trying even the games at the bottom of this list. The order of the games on this list has been highly debated from top-to-bottom.
