Quick Links
The main story ofThe Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdomwill take you quite a while to complete, we’re sure, but if the core story of the game is just not enough for you, why not spend some time completing its many Side Adventures and Side Quests?
With Side Adventures typically more involved and Side Quests smaller and easier to complete, there arejust shy of 200additional, optional quests for you to complete before (or after) you bring the fight to Ganondorf. Our list of all Side Adventures and Quests in TOTK lists all 199 of them.
During our Tears of the Kingdom launch coverage, we published full-length guides on the majority of these quests, which include maps, graphs, tables, reward information, and more!
Any Side Quest or Side Adventure whose name is hyperlinked in the tables below has a full walkthrough, and we’ve linked you right to it for your convenience.

Side Quests
How Are Side Quests Different From Side Adventures?
You’ll find as you work through your Side Adventures that they’ll tend to be longer and more involved, butSide Quests are much shorter.
They typically involve you helping Link complete asimpler task, such as finding an item for an NPC or taking on a gathering of nearby enemies in battle.
They may also encompassgame-long quests, like finding all of the wells in Hyrule, that willtake the majority of the game to complete slowly.
In all, there are139 Side Questsin Tears of the Kingdom for you to finish before your final fight.
