The day has finally arrived. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is officially out in the world and you can check out our full review and our extensive Zelda guides, maps, and more that will help you in your quest to save Hyrule. However, we’re here today to talk about what game from The Legend of Zelda series’ past you chose as the best of the best before we all dive deep into this newest adventure.

After thousands and thousands of 1v1 battles in our latest Face-Off with matchups like Breath of the Wild vs. The Wind Waker and Majora’s Mask vs. A Link to the Past, the ultimate Legend of Zelda game has been chosen.

We already knew that The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom includes a pretty major improvement to Breath of the Wild’s cooking systme in the form of recipe cards. But there are some brand new recipes to cook up too, including everyone’s favorite lazy dinner night dish: pizza.

Incredibly, Tears of the Kingdom’s pizza is actually not that easy to make.

If you’ve started compiling a collection of digital games, you probably already know just how limited the Switch’s base storage capacity. The Switch and Switch OLED have 32GB and 64GB of internal storage respectively. Some of that is reserved for the OS. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom takes up over 18GB of storage all by itself. Other must-have titles like The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Pokemon Sword or Shield tap out at 13.5GB each. There’s only one expansion slot in the Switch console so you want to make sure you get the biggest card you can afford.

The Great Sky Island is where you’ll spend the first hour or three of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, learning the ropes in a format that’s fairly similar to Breath of the Wild’s Great Plateau — but here, and in the first area of Tears of the Kingdom’s main quests point you to, you will require a way to stay warm in cold weather environments, or risk losing hearts fast.

How to Stay Warm and Not Take Damage

Aside from eating cooked peppers and sunshrooms added to your food recipes or making elixirs from warm darner dragonflies, the best way to stay warm is to find warming Armor, and one piece of armor on the Great Sky Island just happens to fill that role: The Archaic Warm Greaves.

Space Davy Jones, Xûr, is now live in Destiny 2 for the weekend until next week’s reset. If you’re looking to get your some shiny new Exotic armor or weapons for your Guardian, look no further.

Each week, Xûr has a random assortment of Exotic armor, one for each Guardian class, as well as a random Exotic Weapon and an Exotic Engram available for purchase. In addition to his Exotic wares, he’s got a random collection of Legendary weapons and armor to deck out your Guardians.

We’ve rounded up all the info on Xûr for the week including where to find Xûr, which Exotic weapons and armor are available, as well as which Legendary weapons you should pick up, either for PvE or PvP.

In The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, as soon as players completed the initial Great Plateau tutorial era, it was possible to grab a paraglider and sprint straight to the game’s final boss, clearing the game in under an hour. Based on our time with the game so far, it seems like a similar path is available in the sequel, Tears of the Kingdom, albeit with a key difference from its predecessor.

WARNING: Spoilers for Tears of the Kingdom follow. Scroll below the video at your own risk.

Just like in Breath of the Wild, in Tears of the Kingdom you can finish the game’s “tutorial” of sorts on on The Great Sky Island, and then go straight to the end of the game.
