'''100% Completion''' is an optional challenge in every ''Zelda'' game, which requires the player to collect every single item, collectible, and complete every single task that there is to do within the particular game. What this includes varies greatly from game to game and this challenge serves as an additional gameplay element for players after they complete a game.

In the ''Zelda'' [[Speedrun]] communities, 100% is often one of the categories that is tracked. In some cases, what appears in the 100% category doesn't actually include every single aspect of the game. This is often because in some titles, gathering every single item adds an unrealistic amount of time to the game with excessive amounts of RNG. An example of this is, in the 100% Speedrun category of ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass|Phantom Hourglass]]'', the player does not need to acquire all of the [[Ship Part]]s. Additionally, community speedrun categories typically only collect items that permanently appear on the menu screen out of dungeons. This usually excludes dungeon items - such as the Map, Compass, or Boss Key. A notable exception is that the community for ''Majora's Mask'' uses a different definition, requiring all items that are not lost when playing the Song of Time, which does include dungeon items. Finally, variations of 100% categories often exist across the games, typically called something along the lines of "100%+", which often includes things that the game's main 100% category skips, such as intermediate upgrades for items and dungeon items.
