Tears of the Kingdom All Memories In Order Guide

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom has been released and with it, players are ready to explore Hyrule and learn the story of Zelda and Link as Gannondorf has returned to power. Much like Breath of the Wild a lot of the story is told by visiting locations around the map. In this spoiler free Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom All Memories Guide we’ll cover each of the memories that you can find around Hyrule and what order you should collect them.

What are the Tears of the Kingdom Memories?

When you first arrive in Hyrule head North West from Central Hyrule towards the Sky Tower. Once you unlock it and fly into the sky you’ll recognize a symbol on the ground. These are the Geoglyphs and each contains a memory for you to unlock that will provide greater context for what is going on in Hyrule. Each of these Geoglyphs will have a small pool that you can interact with to unlock these memories.

After interacting with Impa about the Geoglyph she will point you toward the Forgotten Temple, those who completed all shrines in Breath of the Wild will recognize this as the temple you obtained the Tunic of the Wild in. This time when you travel there a map room will be accessible past the Mother Goddess statue. This room will hint towards the other Geoglyph statues, but as each contains a specific memory they won’t reveal the order that you should obtain these memories to get the story in the correct order.
