![Demon King Ganondorf Battle [All Phases Seamless Theme] - The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/IoybO37EztY/mqdefault.jpg)
"was that the sword that seals the darkness? A blade that shatters so easily against my power, cannot save you from me..."
No better way to reintroduce Ganondorf into the series for the first time in like 17 years than having him destroy the master sword and belittle it.
@@jaredtucker7387 Poor Fi She Got ROASTED By Ganondorf 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@jaredtucker7387 I know bro it was like something straight out of an anime
“Well exscuuse me Ganondorf”
No. This is!
*pulls out empty bottle or fishnet*
Man imagine living in Hyrule castle, not knowing the physical incarnation of Evil is just beneath the floorboards.
there was story's, well legends at this but they kinda know he was there
Twice, first with calamity ganon and then the freaking demon king
I mean its pretty deep down isnt it
@@alexjackyperson101 anyone that ever used the Royal Escape tunnel wouldve seen or even read the stone plaque stating the purpose of the Castle to hold down evil
@@EZ_roni0413 and that wasnt even the first Calamity, Botw implies there's at least 4. The 100 years one we witness, the 10,000 years one the Sheikah knew would happen and prepared the Guardians/Divine Beasts for, and then the "Calamities the ancient Sheikah knew about" because they had warning it would happen again. They knew 10,000 years ago it had occured many times previously.
"Was that the Golden Wii Remote from the Special Edition of Skyward Sword? A remote that drains it's battery so easily against Fi's annoyance, cannot save you from motion controls."
nice
I like how the Zonai vocals are dominant until 7:42 where the piano overpowers them, foreshadowing the Upheaval and Ganondorf's return
piano/organ is also ganondorf's instrument, so this is the moment he begins to break the seal
The piano is also reminiscent of the guardian theme
i love how they made the piano sound like tubular bells thats super impressive
@@pyramidserum yeah, that's right !
remember the piano in dark beast ganon that i saw that its the unfathomable rage of ganon/demise? yeah, its back and stronger
I hope you all got to finish the prologue cause holy fuck that scene got me literally dropping my jaw 💀☠️
“Zelda… You, who wield that’s fragile sword, are Link…”
Same. I am a huge fan of dark stuff and this scene totally brought back Majora's Mask and Twilight Princess feelings and I LOVE it :D
The atmosphere was just incredible - I didn't expect to be in the action so quickly!
Are you even realizing how stupid this comment is? Like who spends 70 bucks on a game and doesnt even play the prologue? Also the scene was in the first trailer so everyone knew about it already
My jaw dropped lower then the depths itself.
The prologue builds tension so well, and the music is PHENOMENAL - better than most horror games I've seen recently ngl!!
I actually agree. People should take notes on how to properly build tension through more than music without combat. xD
The music that gradually increases the atmosphere was incredible this was crazy !
I love this theme and how well it builds tension. It's so effective that the very first time I watched Zelda explaining the murals on the walls of the main chamber I thought for sure there was going to be an explosion of malice/gloom right then and there.
It builds tension so later it would have no tension
yeah i agree this music is so great
Best intro of any Zelda game ever.
Inb4 the eventual "uM ActuAlLly MajoRa'S MaSk--"
This beats majoras mask any day lmao
@@dedox6749 this is the best zelda intro by far, the rest falls to personal prefference.
0:00 Opening
0:22 The Start
2:23 The Zonai Statues
4:05 The Murals
6:01 Deeper
7:41 The Awakening of The Demon King
7:43 The Upheaval
Thanks !
Reminds me of Majora's Mask and Twilight Princess, the vocals and all. This game is amazing
Because it sounds like the occa and city in the sky
It sounds mysterious and mystical at the beginning, but the creepiness and utter dread I was feeling as I went deeper... 💀
I thought there was gonna be an easy boss fight coming up and then its just like three keese lol
What is amazing about this tune is the dissonance caused by the gaps in the notes for the first 3 minutes. Just little note stabs with space in between.
Your mind tries to fill in the missing notes to resolve the melody and it makes for an unsettling feeling. Keeps you on the edge and as the notes gets filled, the picture becomes clearer around the time mark that the mural is revealed showing the full extent of Hyrule’s dark past.
The prologue was incredible, even though we'd already seen a bit of it in the trailers - it was just incredible !!
Especially because we all knew what the missing notes were from the first trailer
When it said “E” I truly felt that, I shed a tear(s of the kingdom) 🥲
The fact that as soon as you pop the game card in the slot then you play this intro is beyond amazing. Not even a menu to load the game. Just straight into it.
This whole intro really set a great tone of the game.
same. i was not expecting to just start immedeatly with no menu. more games should do this
@@voltricity1942 Breath of the Wild already did this for the Switch version.
@@Gowther1999 Wii U version did this as well!
We need more cold opens in games
This is honestly the scariest part of the game and sets everything up later! I've even found this place once more except the fear is even more intense.
The best prologue possible
I did not know Zelda is a horror game now
Majora Mask
Always has been
@@YouareAToy582 majoras mask scared the dogpiss out of me
You haven’t played enough of them or been paying attention.
@@rtothec1234 Fr lol u have major's mask windwaker has some creepy stuff in it um twilight princess too
I don’t wanna spoil anything but god dude this is so perfect for the prologue 😩
Set the tone perfectly for this Legend. Calamity Ganon was a destructive force; Ganondorf himself was destruction incarnate. Love how they made this both prequel and sequel to literally all of Zelda’s Legends as well as set stage for another Hyrule Warriors spin off with Zonai Link (assuming he wasn’t erased due to Zelda’s Time Traveling Antics).
I got to the part just before you find the swirly zonai hand, and (spoiler alert) just before you enter that room the music gets a sudden burst of energy and gets more intense. I genuinely felt shivers go down my spine.
0:32 Zelda’s Lullaby First 3 Notes.
This song is just a complete CHEF kiss. Whoever was having fun experimenting to produce this song has my absolute respect. Unsettling, magical, mysterious, calm yet tense... It's like a time capsule into the events that LEAD to you finding Ganon's mummified, undead BODY at the bottom. So perfect. xD
4:03
This moment
As the full melody assembles, and after 4 long years, the song that was drilled into my head is finally played in its full glory
*I relished every last second*
All of the Zonai music sounds so amazing I love it’s style so much. I don’t skip any of the shrine cutscenes because I just enjoy listening it so much. Such a a perfect way to open the game
I’ve always wondered how the composers made that noise. Did they like reverse a female choir and cut the audio into different pieces and distorted them or something?
yeah i’m like 99% sure that this is a reversed choir, at least that’s also what people thought about the song in the 2nd trailer too
I love how this music goes more and more powerful when you approach the deep of the tunnel
walking slow during that part made it so much creepier and better lol
Argh the way it so subtly builds up is so genius I’m obsessed
This theme just works so perfectly. Everyone knew from seeing the trailer that we would find gannondorf down there. Even when Zelda and link seem to be happy and content with a new discovery, the uneasy theme still plays. As we know the inevitable is coming.
“Rauru placed his faith in you… and that was all you could do?”
"How do you... know our names?"
@@feenickstv4209 proceeds to lift the entire castle into the sky
I love how this theme feels like absolute death. Every step forward you get the feeling that you should NOT be there, and the best time to leave was 5 minutes ago. I did not expect that from a Nintendo game, but this whole sequence was so unsettling. I loved it.
I saw a creepy zelda playthrough it's called Ben drowned
Sehr cooler track
The most stressful sound in Zelda
i'm probably overthinking all of this, but the soundtrack really does match the world building of the prologue; it sounds really stupid, but the soundtrack really does encapsule exaclty what is going on in the game world, its really well put together
the looping of the Zonai voices, which seems to loop from the "clapping" sound onward seems to allude that the magic binding Ganondorf is essentially a looping curse, ensuring that he remains in stasis in that one spot for as long as the magic remains active.
at the start of the prologue, the loop is fragmented, with some of the voices not being included, which I think indicates the magic was damaged to some degree by the calamity, allowing some of ganondorf's gloom to escape. the "clapping" sound only plays every two loops as well, further implying the magic is weakened
the loop becomes less fragmented as the prologue progresses, indicating the magic's grip becoming stronger once more, up until the third phase of the soundtrack where it sounds completely repaired
from this point onward though, the piano starts to kick in, starting small but gradually getting louder and eventually even overpowers the voices, representing Ganondorf resisting against the magic, attempting to break free. the loop of the Zonai voices continues to get faster and faster, as the magic tries to keep hold but eventually the voices diminish completely, at which point Ganondorf has been able to revive
The distortion of this song really gave me Majora’s mask vibes.
This was just a glorious set up man that intro was pristineeeee my boy 🙏 fucking perfect I’ve waited so long
Ganondorf was like: Nigga, all I did was wake up, and I broke your sword, you’re washed! Take this L and go!
This music at the beginning of the game is absolutely enthralling. Not to mention Matt Mercer's voice acting of Gannondorf in the intro too I can't remember the last time a game made me this hyped up.
the prologue music and just prologue of totk in general is probably one of the best intros to a game I've ever witnessed
I would like a extended version of this this music is really good to fall asleep to
Are you okay son?
@@wolfx.2546 clearly he fights his sleep paralysis demon
@@strongmouz1555 yeah 😂
If by fall asleep, you mean be sealed for 10,000 years by a magic hand.
This prologue gave me chills
I would really really like more of that kind of music😢❤
Does Anyone have recommendations ?
Love this music, gives me the chills!
Same kind of songs? I love these “holy” vibes
The way that this theme comes back and is built on later in the game is phenomenal
“Zelda....and the sword bearer: Link! You are Rauru’s hope, and is this your best?”
I legit thought the Master Sword was gonna be reforged into something else, I’m still not disappointed with what I got, my Master Saber Horn
So mysterious and eery!
Hearing this when I started playing this back in May was the most interesting music I have ever heard. As you are going deeper underground, the music goes even more creepier. It's so amazing
The piano kicking in at the end will never not give me the chills. Everytime.
Was shitting bricks and crying my eyes out with my brother as we ventured through the tunnel to find what was going on. Terrifying music lol but it kept drawing me closer
For some reason I like this music
I do to
who the fuck did this masterpiece i need a name
And his name is NINTENDO!!!
@@Apotheosis0 it was a girl who created it actually, I forgot her name but she created breath of the wild and tears of the kingdom ost, she amazing music writer
@@alexjackyperson101 And her name is NINTENDOOO!!!
@@Apotheosis0 You are very close. It's MANAKA KATAOKAAA!!!
...*cough*
@@IkesDaddelbox You forgot something… She worked with NINTENDO!!!
I played this on my boombox in my living room at night.
Why is there a mummified red-haired thing with a glowing arm on his chest in my basement…?
Ummmm... ganon is in you house
@@zeldaforlife OH F**K!!
Dont worry its nothing 😈
this whole plot of this game makes you realize, this version of Ganon has been beneath hyrule castle since before the castle even existed. meaning before the minish cap, ocarina of time, twilight princess. Wind Waker... all of those games. Ganondorf was under the castle, reaching out to others, Other future male gerudos and evil forces. trying to come back through them.
No, this ganondorf was there 10 000 years before breath of the wild. In fact, that's between the last game of each timeline and breath of the wild
@@antonindocquir9021 ...do you not remember the part where hyrule was JUST founded? the past took place at most a few hundred years after skyward sword. giving enough time for the skyloftians to settle on the surface and form a kingdom over a few generations. the main zelda games before BOTW take place across the span of a few thousand years. given the fact that pretty much all the games have direct few generational ties with each other. BOTW takes place "long enough in the future that the differences don't matter." which is where the 10,000 number came from but that isn't an exact number, 10,000 plus another few to possibly several thousand years back into the past isn't a stretch as they never state WHEN the past zelda was sent to was... only that it was the founding of Hyrule, when all the races first came together under one kingdom. theres only 1 point in time where that could be... between Skyward sword and Ocarina of time. as at that point, the triforce wasn't even known about by anyone but the royal family, hense why that ganondorf didn't know about it or why he didn't try to go after it. plus, BOTW states that calamity ganon has tried to come back hundreds of times throughout history, but failing each time, always being stopped. it's why he came back as pure malice the last few times. the Ganondoft from OOT does make up most of the ganon appearances, but it is confirmed theres more then one, taking that and Demise's curse into consideration, it's not that hard to think that this version of Ganon has been using the power of his tear to influence things even within his hibernation. it'd make sense that he'd latch onto his own dependents. and lastly, Hyrule castle didnt exist back then. it was built sometime after the founding of the kingdom. no doubt their idea was to build over ganondorf to better keep an eye on him. but as we know, it seems most people forgot about the giant labyrinth under the castle. but all of that has existed for so long throughout all the games. which is why i said, this version of Ganon has been there the whole time.
@@JSheerXeno54to quote the film Jaws: Rauru founded A hyrule, not THE hyrule. If gannondorf was sealed in the way he was, other incarnations of demises hate could not reincarnate into others like vaati or Oot gannondorf. Also the Rito are kinda shown in the past. Hyrule Historia confirms that no male gerudo has been born since Totk Gannondorf, so the one we see in Oot HAS to come before Totk’s past. I’m fairly sure that Totk’s art book calls Rauru and Sonia’s Hyrule “NEWfound Hyrule” but you’d have to check me on that. On top of that in the zonai memories you can see that the zonai structures are built on top of OLDER Hyrulean ruins. And remember hyrule castle was completely destroyed in Oot, and botw and totk (present) take place after Oot in a timeline merge. What’s likely the case with Totk’s timeline placement is that the original kingdom fell or was destroyed at some point. When the zonai descended they rebuilt the kingdom and “founded” the new hyrule. In an interview with the devs, it’s pain staking obvious that they think the imprisoning war is the one that happens after Oot.
@mrbiscuits001 all well and good and that may be the case but the problem is. If that were true, it means every last structure you find in botw and totk are NOT the original structures from the other games and that these new two games have nothing to do with anything. And every reference ever made is hogwash.
@@JSheerXeno54 They're not the original structures, the map of an old castle town is different to the old games because so much time has passed. Legends still persist sure but thats entirely plausible. For example we know the exact story of the oldest work of fiction ever. It's not hogwash, it's just a long time apart.
This was one hell of a prologue for the series
I love this! Cany wait until I get to play the game on the 17th!
Hope you're enjoying it!
@@mr.cheesytoad5845 I am, it wound up arriving on the 13th so that was an amazing suprize ^^
Love this
I remember getting to the end of the prologue and when I saw the hand sealing Ganondorf I just started hyperventilating
Same
I may not have mentioned this but the horror in this game achieved by Ganondorf in this game along with the Prologue surpasses all of his previous versions and takes on a demonic form similar to Demise from Skyward Sword but has a fear factor and difficulty akin to a kind of Ganondorf that hasn't been seen for over a decade.
This gives me the creeps but thats why I love it so much
Brings me to another realm
I love this melody
If only we could 3x this and make a killer remix
Master class
The prologue was so creepy and this track made it even more creepy. The Gloom in the air around Zelda and Link, the music getting gradually louder and louder the further down you went until it opened up into a massive dark chamber. The voices in the track sound like they could be enchantments meant to hold back Ganondorf.
this music looks like metroid atmosphere
YES
configuring your emulator's settings: the theme
Listening to this with noise canceling headphones is intense lol
the way ganondorf at the end says "i almost forgot the thrill of battle" hes basicaly saying its fun
I was extremely pleased with this kind of opening for ToTK - I was not a fan of BotW admittedly even after playing it all the way through... And I decided to give ToTK its chance to impress me. THIS impressed me! And the rest of the game continued to be a HUGE step above the first!
god dam i wan´t play this Prolog over and over again cinematic EPIC
PS: Thanks for this Soundtrack i Love Mystic Soundtracks :)
7:42 is the best part
This is the best intro of any game… literally the best part of this Zelda game
Incroyable
This Song is Mysterious!
When I heard this soundtrack alone i knew it had already one upped BOTW and it was only the start. BOTW lacked massively in musical scores
They nailed it.
BOTW definitely lacked in prominent music at most points, only having the Horse Riding track, Guardian Trauma track, two or three battle themes and the final boss having three prominent songs. And Hyrule Castle
@Wreck17Mitch definately agree. I've been sat in Gerudo valley for ages before the Temple as I love the ominous soundtrack.
@@Wreck17Mitch Shrine themes, boss themes, village themes, Hyrule Castle, Final Trial, Monk Maz Koshia, Dark Beast Ganon, the Champion's themes. Just because it didn't have a central field theme does not mean BOTW lacked in music.
@@mr.awesome6011 that’s my bad, I know BOTW had a shitload of songs but my point was they didn’t stick in my mind. The most prominent ones off the top of my head were the Horse Piano track, the final Ganon theme, and the obvious Guardian Piano. Hyrule Castle was more ambient but I still adore it as a theme, especially in TOTK
@@Wreck17Mitch how dare you forget Tarrey Town…?
But you also forgot all of the themes for attacking the Divine Beasts, as well as the Champion’s themes. And last but not least; our favorite Bird Boy, Kass…
Hey… I heard this audio before in the first trailer of ToTK in E3 2017
Walking down the hallways and hearing this be like😮
When they said "ha ho wah, wah ho ZEE"... I felt that.
I had to pause for a second after seeing that prologue scene and checking if i'm not playing a souls game
All this because one hylian architect thought it would be a good idea to build a castle atop a red gloomy mountain
It is supposed to be the idea.
The castle is helping the seal
Major spoilers
Castle was purposely built there as a cork to seal up ganondorfs gloom. Although the calamities were able to escape but other then that most of his magic was sealed up.
You have no idea how scared of this prologue music I am XD
Does anyone else think the beeps around 6:40 sound like the little egg guardian from hyrule warriors?
I’m sorry to break it to you but there is no AOC Easter eggs in Tears Of The Kingdom because the game is a sequel to BOTW not AOC
@@probenfetchak8076 Just because it's a sequel to BOTW and not HWAOC doesn't mean it can't have HWAOC references. 🤨
@@lunalgaleo1991 there’s literally no AOC references I'm on my second temple right now in the game and if there was going to be any AOC references it would've happened a lot sooner in the game
@@lunalgaleo1991 but there is a couple of BOTW and OOT references
@@probenfetchak8076 I don't think AoC is considered canon to the Zelda timeline
I’ve noticed that in both BotW and TotK, the evil came from underground.
And in Skyward Sword too.
This might be a sign that there might just be one more game to complete the BOTW trilogy I’m surprised I’m the one one who thinks there’s going to be a sequel to BOTW and TOTK
It would be weird if nintedno didn't make another one sience Botw is their golden goose.
What’s scary about this is that the more closer you approach the mummified ganondorf the music gets louder
I’d like to believe this music, or at least the vocals are diegetic, and the duo can hear the voices as they descend.
Zelda: “Can those voices quiet down?! It’s really hard to study the murals with all this creepy wailing!”
@@cheeseburgerowl937
Don’t you hate it when you’re trying to study for an exam, and the wails of the damned won’t shut up and let you concentrate? Annoys me every time.
This place is a message... and part of a system of messages... pay attention to it!
Sending this message was important to us. We considered ourselves to be a powerful culture.
This place is not a place of honor... no highly esteemed deed is commemorated here... nothing valued is here.
What is here was dangerous and repulsive to us. This message is a warning about danger.
The danger is in a particular location... it increases towards a center... the center of danger is here... of a particular size and shape, and below us.
The danger is still present, in your time, as it was in ours.
The danger is to the body, and it can kill.
having a casual walk through Central Hyrule till the music plays backwards
este ost le da un toque tan siniestro al prologo que me ponia los pelos de punta!
Zelda is hot

I know right
Ganondorf: Defeats Master Sword with Alpha Dialogue -- Metroided Link with Arm Injury -- Roasts Entire Protagonist Cast with Emotional Damage and GOAT Meme Face -- Forces all Player Base and Hyrulian Society to Pikachu Face at his Hydrated Swag Appeal during cutscenes.
Link: Takes an L and loses Plot armor Immediately -- Dives from Jesus Doorstep into Hell's Armpit -- Learns to combine weapons and parts to create Weapons/Shields/Arrows of Troll Tier Levels -- Gains Infinity Gauntlet and Sage Stone Rings since he is Inevitable -- Builds and Deploys Countless Vehicles/Weapons of Terror to commit Unthinkable War Crimes in the land -- Ends up being the one making Hyrule and Koroks bow down before him -- Deploys BFG 10000 and Metal Gear Rex to assert Dominance and Superiority -- Loads save file after beating Ganondorf, just to tame Hyrule/Ganondorf again more creatively and petty sauce.
Also Link: "I'm the LinkLander, and I can do whatever the **** I want!"
10/10 Content
Zelda: wow this is a very fascinating discovery
Link nods in agreement
However, The Player is saying: BItch stop getting interested in your work. Can you not hear the twisted evil Music WE SHOULDN'T BE HERE NOW LETS GO BEFORE........
Mummified Ganondorf: Too Late
Player screaming in fear: AHHHHHH the fuck is that!?
Best Theme in the game for me personally.
I like everything "dark" because of being *the* massive edgelord on planet earth.
This introduction into the game caught me personally *way more* than botw.
The possibility to get a "Msgnotfound" glitch sword in the first iteration of the game in this exact area is just pure bliss.
I hope they never remove it with future patches but just to be safe I disabled updates. :D
Great game so far. Not done with the story yet, could use a few more sinister tones and I'm really unhappy with the best armor being a furry set but oh well. Good game nonetheless!
furry set? the froggy armour?
@@antt2228 nah I believe it was called the ancient hero's set or something along those lines
idk what it is but something about noises played in reverse is so unnerving
Is it just me, or is the a reverse heartbeat every time the bell rings from 0:20 onward?
,,Dies soll das heilige Bannschwert sein und mein Miasma lässt sie einfach so zerspringen. Eine nutzlose Kline“
Ganondorf
I’m the 1000th viewer YAY 🎉 🐱
I can’t be the only one that just hears a rock Pikmins voice in this
Anyone know where to find similar sounding songs? Like voice echo or odd tunes like this?
Where am I and what is this dream I sensed
I would watch every tears of the kingdom trailer in the days before release so I was really excited when I heard this theme and immediately remembered the 2019 first look at the game, I was just sad that basically nothing from that trailer actually appeared in the final product.
Eh it was all there technically, just changed as the development process went on
pretty much everything was there like the first guy said, in fact i could point out all the same stuff that was in the trailer when i first played
When I was playing through it....all I wanted was to leave...
