Hyrulian Timeline

The Legend of Zelda series has a rich history of storylines. Many of the storylines from the games have been linked as direct sequals to other games ie. Oot to MM. However there is no official continuity throughout the entire series. In this section we have created a complete timeline (partly fictitious) for the games and other official media (comics/cartoons).

If you want to know which chapter is the background or history from a game or piece of Zelda Media look in the brackets next to the chapter.

Timeline links from game to game which are official will be signified in between each chapter with *
