Breath of the Wild's Mount Agaat has proven to be quite the mystery over the years. Zelda fans are forbidden from accessing this particular mountain's peak, and for apparently no reason at all... but could Nintendo actually have future plans for the elusive mountaintop? Join me to find out!

What are you MOST PUMPED for about the Breath of the Wild sequel? Personally, it's Ganondorf for me. Gotta know if his neck is okay!
Get a bandage for the guy!
I still hope that Zelda will be a charakter that we could play
Zelda. If she gets possessed, I am going to freak out
I have an idea for what could be on Agaat. The Dungeon entrance we saw in the Teaser. Fits perfectly
Why do you always post close to the same time as common wealth?
Rather than a message saying "You cant go any further" they should've made the message saying something along the lines of "You cant leave, Hyrule needs you"
Kinda like in wind waker, where the king of red lions says it's too dangerous, or something like that
Or even having Zelda say it like she does at the beginning of the game from the castle
@@gfl8883 ooh! that's awesome!
@@gfl8883 Oh, that's actually brilliant!
What I think they should have done is put some scripted event or programmed deflection in front of the bare bones invisible wall....so that if anyone hacked or glitched through THAT...THEN they'd hit just a plain wall. An example would be Link getting blown back by desert winds....in the same way that he gets knocked back by an enemy or how he bounces off the dragons when he touches them. They already did this with the Great Sea in Wind Waker, but, in this game, they could intensify the already strong winds that blow when you near the edge of the sea. The same could occur for trying to paraglide across the canyons. On mountains, Link could slip or stutter permanently when he's close to the barrier. Too steep, too windy, too anything....try to deter the player with natural, in-game methods first before just having them hit a blank wall.
I like to think there’s a colony of lynels up there, because how else would they have weapons of rare metals and be so abundant.
Thats... Interesting(beware, this is going to become a micro bible of a comment, and english isnt my first language, so stroke warning) .
Every other enemy we see its organized, in tribal groups like bokos, moblins and lizalfos (this last ones being much more advanced than the earlier ones) in swarms like the keese, or simple packs like the chuchu.
The exceptions being taluses, Who are just there having Rock life, and the hinox, Who i like to think that are isolated either only for gameplay reasons, or that since they are so big and need to eat that much, tribes of bokos and lizalfos would not like to stick around, since the hinox would eat all their food.
Then there are the lynels
the lynels, those creatures that seem to have the greatest intelligence, considering first that they managed to forge those weapons and bows, and Also learned to use them effectively. Not only that but they Also, instead of attacking on sight, wasting time and arrows, attack you only if you get too close to them and what they consider their territory (once you tresspass, no mercy)
They appeared to be like the perfect creatures to have formed a society, maybe not big structures, But what about a settlement with tents, or maybe little houses. That sounds plausible.
Instead, every lynel we find is either an entire región appart from each other, or more close but still very far from each other. But why?
I may have some ideas about it.
The first of them May have to do with yours, the existance of an unknown colony of lynels, with the lynels we find being maybe explorers, looking for resources, or maybe places to stablish another settlement. This makes the fact that there are lynels relatively close to each other, and Also on múltiple regiones, become something that makes sense.
Another option using the tribes its that the ones we find were part of the tribe, but for some reasons, maybe because they were too violent or any other crime, now they are outcasts, and thats why they are so scattered. That Also would Make sense.
Another option is that there is no tribe, but there was, once. Something happened, either civil war or that the calamity altered the place were they settled, and now they are alone.
Either way, a lynel colony sounds terryfing, yet interesting
@@darkanayer5867 I like your theories, they're very interesting
@@delphoxgaming3798 how the different creatures organize themselves was one of the things i looked and loved a lot when i first played botw. Bokos and moblin are in like early tribe states, using unrefined weapons of wood and bone.
Lizalfos are much more advanced, being able to not only use metal but to use *Steel* (in real World if i remember correctly, we had Cooper during ancient and greek ages, Iron for around roman and steel much later, so yeah, advanced), Even if that was just mimicking hylians.
Then lynels have the most advancements but the less society. That always bothered me. This theories were just attempts to explain why, Even through im not a theory Man, like hyrule gamer of MNB
Well, since Lynels are ridiculously strong, they would be able to get the materials to make their weapons without worrying about enemies bothering them.
That’s an interesting pfp you got there
In the gerudo desert, they should've made a pretty heavy sandstorm permanently near the end and just lopped you so it looked like you were still walking somewhere but really you weren't.
Sounds cool.
*walks forever*
That would be so funny-but that will piss me off horribly lmao
You’d miss out on the view of the desert though. Just staring at a sand wall would be disappointing.
That would as mnb said break the 4th wall of an open world game. If they make it seem like you are able to walk forever and you never find anything its even less realistic than just stop the player
People: Theorizing about whats ontop of Mt. Agaat
Nintendo...We really didnt wanted to model land that laid behinnd it
has to end somewhere
I mean from the great beast you can see over it
They put water though
For the new game they might be able to use it as part of the story or even make something happen up there
Its the home of the koroks
this mountain confused the hell out of me when I discovered it
why is it NAMED
Hmm actually that’s a good question
He answered questions no one asked and this guy's comes with "why is it NAMED" finally a question somebody actually asked/wants to know. Now we wait. For an answer.
WHY NOT?
It almost seems like this was going to be part of a dlc or something but champions ballod didn't alow you to got thair and when I got it I really thought it would alow you to go here so my only idea is it has to be important to botw 2 or it wouldn't be named
@@The-Epic-Jaysp or maybe an employee wanted to name something but they said all the places were taken. Then hes like "oh look there's a meaningless place here lemme name that instead" and they said sure cuz why not
Ok that last transition from the mountain peaks into the overhead shot of the Gerudo sage statue was actually really good and made this whole thing even stronger like heck I didnt even t h i n k of that but it f i t s -
LOL I JUST WAS ABOUT TO COMMENT ABOUT THAT WHEN I SAW IT...it kinda reminds me of a cringy History channel scene...
I Think what you mean is: ‘It just works.
@@henrikfoersom9649 ha haaaaa if I actually wanted to quote something this would nearly be funny.
def made me rewatch it kjasdfnl;kasblkjvf
The mountains where being excavatedduring the fight against ganon 100 years ago thus allowing the mountains to be this way. Plus the eighth heroine was excavated from the side of the mountain.
Also a fun theory would be that the eight heroine is covering the entrance to the crypt.
finding out how the gerudo highlands is oddly shaped like the lost heroine, is already a groundbreaking discovery.. you blew many minds
I literally spend so much time staring out at the unreachable islands and mountains and stuff daydreaming about whats going on over there 😔
You could use the glitch to get past the invisible wall if you want
Oh my god me too, and not just in this game either 🤣 Far-away and unreachable backgrounds in games always fascinated me for some reason. The inability to explore landscapes you're still able to see just picks at your curiosity and gives you a sense of wonder.
@@AlfredoAVA yeah! thats how I feel too, and with botw theres just so much landscape to wonder about - a bunch of far off mountains, peninsulas, hills, cliffs, desserts, oceans, islands, etc., that just seem so interesting because you can't quite get to them lol
@@noorijon Totally. This game was a treasure trove of curiously unreachable lands 🤣 I'm honestly thinking of doing a video about this topic, talking about unreachable areas in games that have always picked at my curiosity.
@@AlfredoAVA that would be so cool!!
YOU ARE A HERO FOR LETTING US SKIP THE AD
Even though it was an ad I enjoyed it a lot xD Loved that acting :)
Why would you, though?
Mhmm
@@Prince_Sidon because raycons suck lmao
Honestly, I'd prefer people stopped putting ads in videos at all.
CZcams started putting ads at the start of videos.
Then they started letting CZcamsrs put ads throughout videos.
Then they charged a premium to not be forced to watch them.
I pay the premium because ads suck.
Now there's ads built into the video that aren't removed by my membership.
I prefer the "Ganondorf under Hyrule Castle" theory but in a mountain would make sense.
I'd like to see a dungeon there anyway, could have a neat type of vertical progression from icy and frigid peaks all the way to a molten center.
@theogames1205 theosmithyboi that... would be the entire thing with Calamity Ganon. Assuming Ganondorf's body is both the origin point of Calamity Ganon's form from the fall of Hyrule and underneath Hyrule Castle, it would make sense why nobody expected the Calamity lashing out the way it did. Furthermore, assuming Ganondorf's body was sealed there by say, the Ancient Sages, likely years before even the first recorded clash with Calamity Ganon in lore, it would make sense that the information would be lost to time.
Bruh, imagine if he is directly beneath where the statues gazes meet.
@@williamcaboose7139 I would've made it be where the views of the telescopes of the Hateno and Akkala research labs cross.
Under the castle on my opinion still makes sense because 1, calamity ganon stems from the castle, 2 the castle raises which explains why there is so much space, and 3, the fortune teller said “the key to destroy calamity ganon is beneath the ground” rather than referring to the divine beasts, it think it refers to ganon himself
A dungeon in those mountains would be great!!

“A massive place underground, but where?”
Me: “yes.”
I LOVE this theory.
I always felt that what BotW was missing from a thematic standpoint, was underground (and underwater) content.
I will definitely look forward to a deep dark caves game to contrast the free atmosphere of "The Wild"
Well i hope you'r happy now with totk😂
11:08 Ok but are we just gonna skip over pretty much the groundbreaking discovery that the Gerudo Mountains are shaped like the Lost Heroine???!
Well it's the shape of any heroine yes
and the sword is right at the end where the mountains hands would be
Thank you, I really thought I was the only one
That had me shook
Not sure if it was masked bandit, but a Zelda-tuber has talked about this before in a video!
.nintendo employee: sir, these mountains are too blocky, we need more time to make them look more natural
.eiji aonuma: we postponed this game since 2015, just make them unexplorable, nobody's gonna care!
MaskedNintendoBandit:
ALL Zelda theories are basically that. And explaining relations between reused assets.
@@Felipera_ all game theories really
Imagine the creator of the game watching this video and be like “yeah that’s totally how it was supposed to be”
11:09 - Blow my mind with that quick fade-in, why don't you.
They hid the gloves that were the one way to avoid slipping while climbing in rain up there.
They were far too powerful for Hyrule and contested the power of the triforce itself, so Hylia had to seal them away behind an invisible wall.
WhItH ThE PoWeR oF tHe tEtRaFoRcE
Reminds me of the jetpack in gta5 that was suppose to be in the mountain.
You're not wrong... That WOULD be too op
Haha, nice one, but I think Hylia would rather steal them.
I have died way to many times trying to climb in the rain that would be super useful but overpowered. We already have an overpowered item, Majora's Mask so I wouldn't see to much of a problem.
My thing with those mountains is that most other mountains in the game look natural. There’s something about that mountain that looks almost artificial. It’s intrigued me ever since the game was first released.
Its too....flat. And smooth.
@@eliaspratt8690 Well in the map, the more white something is the higher up it is, and the map is all the same shade of white which means that the intended summit of mt agaat is completely flat
On my first full playthrough, I had the exact same thought. Though, my mind was pre-occupied on finding out WHERE THE HELL THE LADY STATUE IS WHY THE HELL DID IT TAKE SO LONG TO FIND GAHHH.
ALL FOR TWO SETS OF BOOTS WITH INCREDIBLY SPECIFIC PURPOSES.
I wonder if there’s anything interesting underneath the mountain right now that could give us some indication as to what will be there, if anything.
Legend has it next BotW2 trailer is buried up there.
underrated
nope
underrated as fuck
The highlands being shaped like a heroine was amazing. And if the highlands are ruins like that, they're pointing right to the Spring of Courage which is all surrounded by Zonai ruins! Dang!
I don't know about that being where Ganondorf's body is but it sure would be a perfect place for an ice dungeon.
Also, that overlap of the Gerudo highlands with the heroine statue ... my mind has been blown.
Nintendo watching this: “ You’ve exposed all our secrets!!!”
Guess we have to delay the game! :)

I swear climbing to the top of thing just to find only a korok is so disappointing
This is crazy, ever since I've tried to climb this mountain for the first time and saw that I couldn't, I've always wondered why they would name a mountain that you can't climb. I was waiting for someone to cover this lol
"What's on Top of Mount Agaat"
Me an intellectual: Why the mountain top, of course.
In all seriousness it's probably stuff they left out for the sequel.
It’s just a border for the edge of the map
@@ninjaelectivire1118 Then why is it inside the map and named?
@@DigitalDeath88 to make the edge of hyrule diverse. It would look silly and weird if everything is cut off by a huge abyss.
So we have a endless dessert, a endless ocean, a big abyss and some Mountains you are not suppossed to traverse.
@@TobiDerKrasse Except it is cut off by a huge abyss anyway. A huge section of the map is cut off by a giant hole. Everywhere else the map actually ends ends, this is inside the map but with an invisible wall to stop you and is a named area. It is cut/removed content saved for the sequel.
10:30 they both connect WHAAAA....
Watching this after the game came out was fun
When I glitched past the world boarder, I found that both of these mountains have collision around their edges, maybe that implies that they where planned to be accessible, but where cut for some reason.
What if the statue of the eighth heroine is blocking the entrance to the cavern? The path leading up to it goes perfectly into the mountain for an entrance
... I have over 150 hours in BOTW and I still havent found the 8th heroine...
@@nickzalan4762 its shape is discernable on the map.
@@nickzalan4762 it’s pretty close to the mountain that this video is about lol
That raises soooooo many questions about the heroines importance and symbolism. There's a theory out there about the 7 heroines being the 7 sages and the eighth is Ganondorf. And, well. It would be quite the wow.
Damn, that actually makes a lot of sense. We now know where the Triforce of Wisdom is, guys.
Whoa! I've never noticed that Gerudo Desert was shaped like a birds-eye view of the Statues of the Seven. That's really frickin' cool.

dear developers: invisible walls break emersion too.
You know I had this idea in my head like instead of using an invisible wall, Link should hear Zelda's voice saying "You can't leave, Hyrule needs you" and make Link step back.
yeah, for the mountain they could have had it covered in ice or mud where you just forever slip and can't grab.
@@SALshaNoma or like a storm that blows link off the mountain or away from it when he uses the paraglider
The way they did it just feels lazy
emersion
Plot twist, the Eighth Heroine was actually Ganondorf, which is why they tried to erase it from history.
Ah yes, Ganondorf is actually female
@@brodentripcony3641 *Exactly*
🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂
Ganondorf is Him from Powerpuff girls
The nameless mountain is a good name for a mountain.
If you've taken the time to name the mountain then it is relevant.
Alternate thought/theory: Perhaps Mount Agaat is the "dungeon" we see in the BOTW 2 trailer, but in order to enter you need to find clues or key items to unlock the entrance and those are found in/on/around "little twin" mountain.
The thing that is up there is a legendary stash of Shiekah Slate friendly Raycons
Nice 69
huge plot twist:
One of my serious theories: Us finally getting a quest in BOTW2 or as DLC to be able to get to the top because there's a 'mysterious person' who's meditating or training up there in secret and they had a 'force field' up to stop would-be distractions and we finally need their help:
Us bent over along with Zelda from being so exhausted after the climb and all we see are someone's shoes walk up to us and a deep, but a woman's voice says with a chuckle, "What took you guys so long?". We look up and Zelda gasps in happiness, "OMG! Shiek!"
fun theory: same with us being bent over but we had been told it was a helper of some kind (probably by Impa because she could still have some of her goofiness in her, and she would try to hide a chuckle and neither Link nor Zelda notice but we do) and not seeing who is next to our ear but all of a sudden we hear an infamous, annoying (no offense to the voice actress lol), high-pitched female voice say, right in our ear, "Hey! Listen!"
...Damn it...I'm not the first one to think of her (Navi)...x gets all annoyed but realize great minds think alike lol x

Hey there. I have found a cool detail in BotW today that, as far as I know, nobody has mentioned in a video yet. In the dome, the big void where you get your Master Sword back after the trials, there is a depiction of Hyrule on the wall. You can see parts from all important locations, including the divine beasts, ingraved in the wall going around the whole thing. Like I said, I don't know if somebody mentioned this in a video yet, but I geeked out about it so much that I had to post it. ^^
Wow that's pretty cool. I never noticed that
Its an identical copy of the same art in the Laboratory where you fight Calamity Ganon. I think Croton covered this little Easter Egg. Still, though, Good Eyes!
@@mainhouseweightlifting4679 Oh you're right! But it's REALLY hard to notice during the final boss. XD
I already saw that and i have also seen a video thas has covered it already
I remember I used Revali's gale to just see over the mountain...it was breathtaking but filled me with even more wonder
Your pfp is cool
@@penguinninja4417 Thanks, I found it by this Deviant artist, called ShyKitty20. The entire Smash Bros roster is drawn in this style. Here's the link to it if you want: www.deviantart.com/shykitty20/art/Super-Smash-Bros-icons-762117231
That land bridge in the far northeast of Hyrule is another place where you think it would lead somewhere, but you bump into an invisible wall when you try to investigate.
I hate when games give you the good ol' no when you try to leave. This game suffers from that when it really shouldn't. It has an ocean, a big canyon (that I wanna see the other side of), a desert with an easy sandstorm boarder. So why not make the mountain like really tall? Or better yet, climable with a shrine and a nice view of the south area?
At 11:09 Holy crap! Dude, that was a cool transition between the shape of the mountains and the heroine statue. 🤯 Man made or Gerudo lass made.
Out of the entire year I've played BotW, I've never cared about Mt. Agaat. Didn't even realize it existed until now. But cool now a new place to explore :D
Same
The way you say the mountain name,
Is also how you say my last name-
Oh my god! xD That advertisement-skit at the beginning was hilarious. I couldn't skip it. I'm telling you, if all of these skits were so funny, i'd never skip any of them xD
I used a flying minecart to fly up to the top of Mount Agaat. You can walk on the sky due to there being a collision box there.
If you look at the map and zoom in and out. You see something appear and disappear in between those frames, this being the main reason why I flew there to begin with. unfortunately there was nothing there.
I did this before Champion's ballad came out, and I honestly thought this weird disappearing map object could have been a dungeon, and although it wasn't, we got the final trial somewhere else.
NBC: what a stud, am I right?
"But that is my theory regarding the mystery of Mt Agaat."
My brain: "But that's just a theory... A GAME THEORY!"
I was really surprised when while i was exploring the Gerudo Highlands and all of sudden i heard the dragons' theme only to see Farodra (i think is Farosh in english) right above me since it's the guardian of the Farone region. So it would totally make sense that the Zonai had some kind of settlement where their main protector also goes through.
Whenever I went to that area I always would try to climb the mountain, just by curiosity and wondered why I couldn't go on top. Nice theory!
Plot Twist
The Zonai are part of the Gerudo that still aren't on good terms with the Hylians.
I love when bandit does skits like this
My guess. You’d see outside the boundaries of what they built. And there’s only so much time to make assets that stopping you from seeing a clipped through view of a mountain or the edge of the game map into nothingness is easier this way
If you zoom in and out on the map near the center of Mount Agaat there’s a small shape that doesn’t appear while just looking at the map normally
"What if these mountains are the entrance and exit to XYZ?"
Or... it could have just been the edge of the map....
Why neatly fold the edge of the map around a named location? The edge isnt a straight line that doesnt make any sense development wise
Yeah I think a steep mountain edge is an interesting place to put a world barrier as opposed to just a flat surface
Gives some nice variety
There's the ocean, deep abyssal canyons, an unfriendly stretch of uninhabited desert, and the peak of a mountain, it all hints that there's more beyond the playable area while also giving a feeling that what's beyond there is separate, I do actually like that they named it as well, does more to suggest a wider world to me whether they had ideas for it or not
@@felixc543 but why name this mountain and not the other border mountain or canyons?
@@janwillemdewaard9032 it could be as simple as something having the idea of the topographical map looking like agate that they wanted to include a reference to, they aren't 100% consistent with naming anyway, could've been named by someone who didn't know it wouldn't be on the map or checked by people who wouldn't think it would be a big deal
Yeah it could've been intended for something early on but there's not really anything to say that they were SO certain there would be content they had to name it NOW. I'm perfectly happy to be wrong when botw2 is released (though expanding beyond the map in the sequel doesn't necessarily prove they already had intentions of it), I just am not convinced that there HAS to be a huge significance to it.
Like, naming a mountain that you can't climb does draw extra attention to it, but that's a minor "problem" with their game design even if there is an idea of what's up there, because preferably the player would rarely hit invisible walls, that problem isn't solved by saying "it's a secret" and it doesn't really function to give any hints that I can see
(Please forgive my rambling sentence structure, it's a flaw of mine, or don't I'm not your dad)
@@janwillemdewaard9032 otherwise you could see all the unfinished stuff
I think a likely possibility was that it was for DLC Pack 2. That pack features a massive underground divine beast, with no real shape defined by the landscape, it could have literally been anywhere. It could be that they decided to put this at the Mount initially, but decided later in the game to move it to the Plateau, and with it being all underground, little was affected.
So they move it, and are left with the question of what to do with the mountain, if you unblock it everyone will do there in search of some great secret and be disappointed. No new shrines, Easter eggs, not even a Korok. But if you leave it blocked, it implies a mystery, and opens the door for you to maybe retcon some future purpose into it
I'm so glad you made this video!! It's like you read my mind! The fact that the highlands is also where the yiga are located and the 8th heroine- it all seems connected for some reason
A country wide system of massive caverns would be interesting to explore
MNB Says: "Could it be that this cavern our heroes are exploring is actually the ruins of what was once some massive underground civilization?" Me: "Play Hollow Knight."
And the fact that there is two bottomless pits in the Garuda highlands as well. It makes so much aense
The caverns they’re in in the trailer give me Moria vibes, I’m really looking forward to exploring whatever that is when the game finally comes out

I have a theory that behind the 8th heroine is the cave entrance in the botw2 trailer
Probably
Wow. I didn't even think of that. There is an odd valley where it is. Maybe it was supposed to be a path to the dungeon
@@juliette3218 That valley was made by the dragon I think. But that whole area is weird. Like, how did that 8th statue get there?? Along the way, you see the broken sword in the snow. I have so many questions about that area.
@@chanmarr8118 In an NBC video (I think it was Nintendo black crisis) he believes that the sword was being carved but they didn't finish. That is why it looks broken. But I don't think the dragon made the valley. I think it was also carved out so they could make the statue. But if it was a man-made canyon why would someone take time to do it. Who did make the valley? That is my question
@@juliette3218 1 thing, divine beast, although, I prefer other theories
I can't believe how many people never noticed the shape of the Gerudo Highlands, it always stuck out to me like a sore thumb
I actually think you hit the mark. There's a strong chance that they have an overarching idea for the Gerudo Mountain Range. It does seem to have an ancient feel to it, what with the Sheikah Tower being located there and the fact that the mountain range itself seems craved out.
Can we talk about what he put in the search engine to get the list of theories at 7:15?
What does it say ?I can't see it
@@AstralComposition "holy theories batman, that's quite a few you got there"
Yes
It could be photoshopped you know
@@CyberAtlasX1 ...dude
Up on that mountain is snow xD also how are you mister bandit and your sponsor skits man always cracks me up
Okay but the skit in the beginning- was phenomenal
So this didn’t age too well. It’s most likely not the entrance. But we have islands now.
Woah woah woah, you don't just drop a shocking Gerudo Highlands/Heroine Statue comparison and end the video there! Please, make a sequel to this video where you cover the possibility of the Gerudo Highlands being manmade.
I honestly don't think they had anything planned for the mountains when they made them. While Mount Agat is weird because it's named, the other mountain is just a border. However, the sequel could totally use them.
I’m subbing. I need more of this content! Keep up the good work!
Your acting and writing is 10/10 for this episode...
Keep up the fantastic work with these videos!
MNB, do you think that the base of the gerudo tower could also be an entrance point?
I literally just came across an area today that I didn’t try traversing before that doesn’t allow you to move forward - it’s that large slab of land and giant rock spines along the coast next to the Akkala labyrinth
My immediate thought was “God I hope they use this for the sequel” it feels like a weird path out of Hyrule since just beyond the spines you can see a grassy path leading up the side of a mountain
Just something I thought was neat c:
Your vids are the best!! Keep up the good work!
nah man, this got me soooo hyped and wanting to know more about everything you talked about in the video. the ancient history of the gerudo culture, the MASSIVE cavern system possibly an ancient civilization. everything dude OH MY GOD i cant wait!!!
The timing of this video is so weird, I just made it to this location yesterday! My first thought was why is it named if I can't climb it? My second thought went to BOTW 2 and wondered if it was hiding something for the next game. Thanks for the content!
11:09 trust me you’ll thank me for this amazing transition.
5:13 Warm wishes from MNB to you this holiday season!
Tears of the kingdom still has this largely blocked off but i managed to at least get on top of a part of it. Wonder if theyll add anything there in DLC? Eh I doubt it
I really hope that botw2 doesn’t make a whole new timeline like AoC did. I want more actual canon to this world!
BOTW 2 can't really add any timeline, only define its place in one of the timelines. AoC could because it was a "prequel"
All is Canon in Love and Ganon
Every official game is canon

Thank you for listing where the content is and where the raycon sponser more youtubers need to do this
I watched this whole video with the "press x to doubt" meme glued to my forehead, up to the point where you overlayed the mountains and the heroine statue. Then I was just floored.
your advertisments are really amazing!
