The Legend Of Zelda meets Minecraft in this stunning open world

Combining Minecraft with The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild might make you think I’m about to show you a new game that channels both games, but you’d be wrong.

I’m actually here to sing the praises of this Minecraft project by Grazzy, who decided to build the entirety of Hyrule from Breath of the Wild out of blocks, over three years.

The Minecraft Movie will be in cinemas later this year

Grazzy’s video went up on YouTube recently and is over an hour and a half of wonderful Minecraft building, taking viewers through a monumental project.

It all started in March 2022, when Grazzy published the first part of the journey.

Things were going well, until he realised that the world map he’d generated was too small and had to start over from scratch, losing over a month of work.

Now, several years later, the map is finished and Grazzy has placed the last blocks.

What came out at the end is a staggeringly beautiful reproduction of Hyrule with every little detail included.

I’m one of those people who looks at standard Minecraft landscapes and thinks they’re gorgeous, so seeing projects like this, always blows my mind.

What was achieved here is superb, and you can play it, right now.

It’s free to download and explore, playable in Minecraft Java 1.21.4.

If you’re a fan of either game, you have to take some time to check out this mammoth project.

With all the landmarks you know and love, down to the tiny features of the map, like enemy camps and tucked away ruins, this is a recreation that will wow at every turn.

Taking well over 2,000 hours to create, this is creative dedication, and I’m downloading it as I type, so I can explore later tonight.

Do yourself a favour and at least watch the video compilation of how this came together.
