How to Get the Master Sword in Zelda Breath of the Wild

Here's how you get the Master Sword in Zelda Breath of the Wild. It isn't enough to just find the Master Sword in Breath of the Wild, you need to complete the quest The Hero's Sword, which involves solving a cryptic clue and doing a lot of extra legwork. But it's the Master Sword - it's worth it!

Your inventory is full

In the Lost Woods I simply followed the direction of the wind by looking at the grass and dust in the air. Didn't think of looking at the torch's fire direction but I love there are various details you can follow independently.

and here I was filling up on stamina...

[sandgaijin]

ah, I didn't think about using a torch. I followed the wind wisps. Also, I had 8 hearts and 5 stamina upgrades. I traded my stamina for hearts with the devil statue and came back. I wasn't sure how many hearts I needed but that paid off. so yeah, I literally made a deal with the devil for the master sword in my journey.

You obtained the legendary master sword!
*weaker than your current weapon*

[PARAMYTAS]

Ten minutes without use? Hell, I can do that easily since I'm running and scouting the majority of the time anyway

I wish that Zelda had left the master sword at the shrine of resurrection

Everyone is bitching and whining about the spoiler but clicks the video. Even if you claim to pause it what's the point in moaning?

Great video Eurogamer ❤️

[flowlee]

To people complaining.. Ofcourse the sword is in the game! It's no spoiler if you see the title.. And you don't have to watch where the location is!

[GamerJosh]

Also the Deku tree will stop you the first time if your about to die due to not enough hearts, but will not stop you again, pretty cool in my opinion

And it still "breaks". The items in this world are made of cheapo plastic.

[tayssstrio]

This is the absolute easiest description to show how to get there. Thank you so much. Other videos you gotta watch bit by bit.

Just got the master sword about an hour ago after having to complete 36 shrines and one divine beast. WORTH IT!! This is definitely shaping up to be one of my favorite games of all time. So glad I bought the switch!!

[eliasvilla]

*finally pulls sword out
"I broke it!"

[songoku]

I don't consider this as a spoiler because when you first play this, just admit it, you're going to look up how and when you get the master sword anyway. And besides it was good to know about the shrines and heart containers beforehand.

Finally, I've been trying to figure out how to get throught the lost woods and you are the only video I found that actually gave me the method. There are other vids but none that I have found that actually gave me the method I needed. Thank you

[vibevizier]

fun fact: if you throw the master swodd while at full health it shoots a beam. Have fun with it.

[MrSamusdark]

I don't understand why the Master Sword was nerfed lmao. So we have to keep using cheap plastic weapons even when I'm carrying the Master Sword

[ryanwalker]

Ancient Arrows should do the trick against Ganon, which is why I'm gonna use Revali's bow plus the one that I have to strike Ganon in his face, making the fight much easier.
