The Cursed Bokoblin only appears in areas tainted by the [[Malice]] of Calamity Ganon. They appear identical to the heads of Stalkoblin, though they are engulfed in a dark aura. They tend to spawn from a certain area of Malice, so destroying the source will prevent them from appearing.

First appearing in [[The Battle of Hyrule Field]], Bokoblin appear in different physical sizes, which correlates with their overall power and health. Smaller Bokoblin often wield a [[Boko Bow]] or a [[Boko Club]]. Much larger Bokoblin can also be seen serving as [[Outpost]] leaders that need to be defeated for Link to capture an outpost
In [[The Battle of Hyrule Field]], Link will encounter Blue Bokoblin. Later in the journey, more powerful Bokoblin, including [[Black Bokoblin]] and [[Silver Bokoblin]] will be more prevalent, as well as the undead [[Stalkoblin]].
After each Bokoblin is defeated, they may drop a Bokoblin Horn or a Bokoblin Fang. Additionally, the player will receive a [[Bokoblin Trophy]], which can be used to complete [[Age of Calamity Quests|quests]] or upgrade weapons of the various warriors.

Bokoblins in ''Tears of the Kingdom'' come in different varieties, such as the basic Red Bokoblin and the [[Stalkoblin]]. They can be found all over Hyrule, but tend to gather at various [[Monster Camp|Camps]], with other enemies like the [[Moblin#Tears of the Kingdom|Moblin]] and [[Lizalfos#Tears of the Kingdom|Lizalfos]]. They can now also be encountered in either heavily fortified monster camps or in patrols where they are led by a variant of [[Boss Bokoblin]], attacking in formation until the leader is killed. All variants of Bokoblin are often seen carrying basic unfused and fused weapons, usually fused with crude materials such as rocks and mushrooms. Any variant of Bokoblin can also be encountered on horseback, occasionally riding on wild animals, in pairs of one on horseback towing a wagon carrying another Bokoblin, and carrying crude backpacks filled with any variety of materials, from meat, to arrow-fusion materials, to zonaite if encountered in the Depths. Any variant of Bokoblin can also be encountered clad in rock armor, which will have to be broken with a blunt weapon in order for them to recieve damage properly. If they eat any piece of fruit or meat, they will instantly regain 100 percent of their health. Standard Bokoblins will often drop [[Bokoblin Fang]] and [[Bokoblin Horn]] when defeated. When [[Kilton]] moves to Tarrey Town, a Bokoblin of any type is his first request for his Monster Collection, as per the [[A Monstrous Collection I]] sidequest.

===Stalkoblin===
{{main|Stalkoblin}}
This variant of Bokoblin only appears at night or in the Depths, and behaves very similarly to creatures such as [[Stalchild]]ren from previous games. They only have 1 HP, but when struck, their heads will drop to the ground, and will need to be destroyed in order to be fully rid of Stalkoblin. They often appear in groups of 2 or 3. Like other Stal enemies in ''Tears of the Kingdom'', they can be instantly defeated if Link shoots or throws a [[Dazzlefruit]] anywhere in their range.
