The Zelda Cast

Just in time for the end of the year, Zelda Dungeon has published it's biggest yearly feature: Best Zelda Ever! This years list features Echoes of Wisdom's debut, games rising and falling down the list, and some shocking placements of beloved classics. Andy and Al both contributed to the list and review it game-by-game to see what we agree with, what we disagree with, and why we placed some of our pick where we did. Make sure you check out the list for yourself to see where your favorite game landed! This is our final show of 2024, so from all of us, Happy New Year!!   Support The Zelda Cast on Patreon!

Happy Monday, Zelda fans. This week, we've got a breezy show that focuses on Okami's return at The Game Awards and our thoughts on the state of Geoff Keighly's show, what we thought the high points and low points for the Zelda franchise were in 2024, and what we can expect to see from the series in 2025 - everything from the debut of the Switch 2, possible casting news in the Zelda Movie, ports finally coming to Switch to fill time, and maybe even a new Zelda game announced?? Come and hang with us, and just FYI - no new show next week, as we're taking the week off for the holidays! From everyone at the Zelda Cast, have a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!   Support The Zelda Cast on Patreon! Subscribe to receive the monthly bonus show ‘The Zelda Cast Top Tens!

Our Echoes of Wisdom coverage is coming to an end for now, as this week, we put a bow on our last few weeks worth of coverage by assigning a final score to each of the ten key categories that define a great Zelda game: the world, the art style, the gameplay, the pacing, the story, the music, the enemies and bosses, the dungeons, the items, and the side content. We debate, discuss, and talk about how this game was exactly what Zelda fans needed. All this, PLUS a little Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones, and cozy gaming discussion!

We are finally taking all of your Echoes of Wisdom questions this week, and you guys didn't disappoint! We're covering a wide variety of topics, including: do we want to see more games where you play as Zelda? Specifically, do we want to see a direct sequel to Echoes? Should Zelda games reuse/reimagine the same overworld more often? Is Echoes more of a kid-friendly game than Tears of the Kingdom? Who's our favorite new character in the latest Zelda game? How does Echoes impact how we think about A Link to the Past and A Link Between Worlds? All this, PLUS some thoughts on the officially announced timeline placement!
