For those craving a more educational experience, the Legend of Zelda encyclopedias offer an extensive exploration of Hyrule's lore, culture, and its diverse races. The Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Historia, released in 2013, provided the first officially established timeline, shedding light on the branching paths that fans had long speculated about, which originated in Ocarina of Time. This timeline features one branch where adult Link defeats Ganondorf and another where he doesn't, providing fascinating context for various game settings.

The Legend of Zelda Encyclopedia and Art & Artifacts delve even deeper into the universe, offering detailed analyses of items, characters, and enemies, along with exclusive developer interviews. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild - Creating a Champion is a comprehensive 400+ page companion to the 2017 game, filled with design and concept art, historical insights into Hyrule, and interviews with key developers.

While the internet has transformed the landscape of video game strategy guides, older guides from publishers like Prima Games and Brady Games have become valuable collector's items. However, a massive hardcover official guide for 2023's Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom remains available for the Nintendo Switch. This nearly 500-page guide is an exhaustive resource, covering everything from Korok locations and cooking recipes to dungeon solutions and boss fight strategies.

While similar information can be found in IGN's guide to the game, this physical edition is a splendid addition to any Zelda fan's shelf.
