For those seeking a deeper understanding of the Zelda universe, the series' encyclopedias are invaluable resources. The Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Historia, released in 2013, provided the first official timeline, resolving years of fan speculation about the branching timelines that stem from Ocarina of Time—one where adult Link defeats Ganondorf, and another where he does not. This lore is fascinating and sheds light on the settings of various games within the franchise.
The Legend of Zelda Encyclopedia and Art & Artifacts delve even further into the universe, offering comprehensive breakdowns of items, characters, enemies, and exclusive developer interviews. Meanwhile, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild - Creating a Champion is a comprehensive 400+ page companion to the 2017 game, featuring extensive design and concept art, historical insights into Hyrule, and interviews with key developers.

While the era of traditional video game strategy guides may be waning due to online resources, older guides from publishers like Prima Games and Brady Games have become coveted collector's items. However, the nearly 500-page official guide for 2023's The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom remains available for the Nintendo Switch. This guide is an exhaustive resource, covering everything from Korok locations and cooking recipes to dungeon solutions and boss fight strategies.
Although you can find similar information in IGN's online guide, the physical copy is a valuable addition to any Zelda fan's collection.
