For those seeking an educational journey into the world of Zelda, the encyclopedias provide an in-depth look at Hyrule's history, culture, and its diverse inhabitants. The Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Historia, released in 2013, was the first to officially establish the series' timeline, which branches from Ocarina of Time into two paths: one where adult Link defeats Ganondorf, and another where he doesn't. This timeline has been a subject of fan speculation for years and sheds light on the settings of various games. The Legend of Zelda Encyclopedia and Art & Artifacts further enrich the universe with detailed insights into items, characters, and enemies, along with exclusive developer interviews. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild - Creating a Champion, a comprehensive 400+ page companion to the 2017 game, offers a wealth of design and concept art, historical context, and interviews with key developers.

While the era of extensive video game strategy guides has waned with the rise of the internet, older guides from publishers like Prima Games and Brady Games have become valuable collector's items. However, the nearly 500-page official guide for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, released in 2023 for the Nintendo Switch, remains readily available. This comprehensive guide covers everything from Korok locations and cooking recipes to dungeon solutions and boss fight strategies. While IGN's online guide offers similar information, this hardcover edition is a prized addition to any Zelda fan's shelf.
