Dungeons are certainly a staple of the Zelda franchise, as they appear in every canon game since the first title on NES. While we have seen what Nintendo calls “shrines” in Breath of the Wild, these are not dungeons. They could be called mini-dungeons perhaps, but not full-fledged Zelda dungeons. In the new installment of “Inside Breath of the Wild” above, Commonwealth Realm reviews what we know about the shrines so far, as well as the confirmation that there are indeed large dungeons in the game.

In addition to the recap, CR and the other voices who join him speculate about said dungeons, specifically the number of them in the overworld. A past rumor, which stated there would be over 100 mini-dungeons this time around (presumably the shrines), says there will only be four major dungeons. Will this be the case? Let us know what you think in the comments.
