Sources and edition changes

Switch 2 edition · sources checked November 5, 2026

This guide follows the 2026 Nintendo Switch 2 remake. Routes were checked against edition-specific walkthroughs and Nintendo documentation. We have not personally completed a console playthrough.

The N64 guide and its saved progress remain separate. Checklist totals measure this guide, not the game's completion percentage. New features are documented where the available evidence supports them.

Nintendo update notes: version 1.1.1 ↗

Changes to keep in mind

  • The remake's map records regional discoveries and can show the locations already found; launch reporting describes fuller regional totals after the ending.
  • The Echo Gem is the remake's nearby-Skulltula aid. Equip it when retracing a region.
  • Goron City's central-rock token is a separate adult revisit; include it when returning to the city.
  • A check means you marked this token collected. It does not read or synchronise the console save.
  • These locations were checked against documentary guides explicitly covering the 2026 Switch 2 remake. We have not personally tested all 100 on a console.
  • RPG Site and Respec are related publications; matching their routes is a documentary cross-check, not independent playtesting.
  • Entries are grouped by region. Their gs identifiers are stable HyruleAtlas checklist identifiers, not official map numbers.
  • The tree above Lake Hylia and the laboratory tank each contain a separate token; collecting one does not replace the other.
  • Time is stated where the inspected sources specify it. If an outdoor spider is absent, revisit at night and compare the game's regional counter.
  • This token checklist does not certify completion of the Hall of Fallen Foes, fairy thoughts or ZELDA NOTES.
