This guide shows the locations of the 52 Pieces of Heart from Majora's Mask for Nintendo 64 (including emulated versions, such as Virtual Console & Nintendo Switch Online) and Majora's Mask 3D for Nintendo 3DS.

51 of the 52 heart pieces are roughly in the same location. However, in Majora's Mask 3D, the location of one Heart Piece was switched with an Empty Bottle. Either way, using this guide will get you all 52 heart pieces, regardless of what version you are playing. This guide more or less is in the order when the heart pieces are first available. In many cases, while you can get a heart piece at that time, it isn't always the most convenient.

Majora's Mask features 52 heart pieces scattered across Termina, offering 13 Heart Containers to Link's total health.

  • Heart-Piece-N64.png

    Location: Southern Swamp

    Conditions: Defeat Odolwa

    NOTE: Nintendo 64 ONLY. This Piece of Heart was changed to an Empty Bottle in the Nintendo 3DS Version. Likewise, late in the quest an Empty Bottle location was changed to a Piece of Heart.

    Heart Piece N64: Go to the Swamp Tourist Center and speak with Koume after you've defeated Odolwa and rescued her earlier. She will let you play a little game now that the poison is clear. Koume will fly around on her broom, holding a target below her. The object of the game is to hit the target at least 20 times. You can hit her 10 times and then you're out. Aim carefully, it is pretty easy. Once you've done it, you will receive a Piece of Heart as a reward.

    This is changed in the 3DS version of the game. Instead of receiving a Piece of Heart as a reward, you receive an Empty Bottle. The location of the Piece of Heart is swapped with the location of the Bottle you receive in Ikana Graveyard.

  • MM3D-Heart-Piece-19.png

    Location: Romani Ranch

    Conditions: Acquire the Mask of Truth (Recommended)

    Heart Piece #19: Go to Mamamu Yan's Doggy Racetrack at the back of Romani Ranch. You have to bring her a dog to race with and bet a certain amount of Rupees to play. If you win 150 or more Rupees, you will receive a Piece of Heart. Before you actually pick a dog to race with, walk around picking them up one by one while wearing the Mask of Truth. With this, you can hear their thoughts.

    When you find the one that says something to the extent of "Ruff! There's no way I can lose!" and is very enthusiastic, take him and bet 50 Rupees on him (the maximum amount). The races are pretty random, but it is a very good chance that you will at least get third, which will still allow you to keep your Rupees. If you don't get it the first time, find the correct puppy that makes the above statement and do it again. After a few tries you will get it. You could get this without the Mask of Truth, but you'd be picking blindly.

Defeat it to make a chest appear containing a Piece of Heart.

  • MM3D-Heart-Piece-26.png

    Location: Ikana Graveyard

    Conditions: Acquire the Captain's Hat

Step on it to cause the door to the cage below open for a few moments. In the Nintendo 3DS version, you can just quickly walk down, but it will close much faster in the Nintendo 64 version. You will need to go down the stairs quickly in order to make it. Either roll using the Goron Mask, or run with the Bunny Hood. Once inside, claim your prize and use the switch in there to open the door.

  • MM3D-Heart-Piece-31.png

Go to Pinnacle Rock (through those two pillars sticking out of the water) and release the seahorse. It will guide you safely through. In this new area, there are many Deep Pythons. Defeat all of them to reunite the seahorse with its lover. They will then give you a Piece of Heart in thanks.

    Location: Zora Hall

    Conditions: Acquire the Zora Mask, Hookshot

    Heart Piece #32: Put on the Zora Mask and talk to the Zora in front of the door with three shells above it (Mikau and Tijo's room). Now enter. Inside, you will find Tijo practicing his drums. He broke Mikau's ladder earlier though... You will notice a branch above Mikau's area. Use the Hookshot to get up and put the Zora Mask on again. Now read his diary to discover two little notes:

    (N64) 1st: A, ▼, ►, A
    (3DS) 1st: L, R, Y, L

    (N64) 2nd: ▼, ►, ◄, ▼
    (3DS) 2nd: R, Y, X, R

    Now exit this room, put on the Zora Mask again and enter the next room. This is Japas' room, and he wants to jam with the same song you guys played yesterday. He plays one part and then you follow up with what you just found in the diary. Together, it makes this:

    N64 Version:
    ►, ►, ▼, A, A, ▼, ►, A
    ◄, ◄, ►, ▼, ▼, ►, ◄, ▼

    3DS Version:
    Y, Y, R, L, L, R, Y, L
    X, X, Y, R, R, Y, X, R

    Now, enter the next room, which belongs to Evan. He is the band leader and he doesn't want you guys coming up with songs on your own. So, take off the Zora Mask and play both of those parts together while standing behind him as normal Link. Evan will use this song and say that he came up with it himself. As consolation for stealing it, he will give you a Piece of Heart.

Take off the Zora Mask and put on the Goron Mask. Now talk to him and trade the Mountain Title Deed for the Ocean Title Deed.

Jump across them all until you're on the last ones. Defeat the Ice Keese so they don't accidentally knock you off. Now, you will notice a snowy platform in the distance. Tatl will fly over there and turn green. That is your cue to play the Scarecrow's Song. He will appear on the platform. Hookshot to him and grab the Piece of Heart awaiting you. Now, you can either fall off the ledge to appear at the start of this scene, or play the Song of Soaring.

If you do not have it yet, use Spring Water. Ride the plant that grows to the next platform. Tatl will fly over to the next platform and turn green. Play the Scarecrow's Song and hookshot to him.

Burn the cobwebs in front of the door to your left by using either a Deku Stick or a Fire Arrow and enter it. This is the Library and there are two Stalchildren here. Talk to them while wearing the Captain's Hat and write down the order they say. Leave this room. Go down the stairs and enter the first room you come to. Put on the Captain's Hat again and talk to all of the Stalchildren to complete your list of the order. Now, shoot the masks on the wall with arrows in the correct order to make the gate open.

Just move around a lot and take them out one at a time. The last Poe, Meg, is a little different. Four will appear around you, and then a moment later, one will spin. That is the real one.
