100% Completion
This article is a stub. You can help the Zelda Dungeon Wiki by expanding it. |
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 Speedrun community, 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% Speerun category of Phantom Hourglass, the player does not need to acquire all of the Ship Parts.
