Every gamer I know has been playing (or talking about) The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. The game, which was released on May 12, 2023, has received mostly positive ratings from critics and regulah degulah gamers. My friends have been gushing about the game’s expansive nature, and have unabashedly bailed on hanging with me in favor of spending some more hours with their new favorite game.

 As someone who isn’t necessarily a huge fan of Zelda, I’m happy for them, but I don’t feel compelled to drop a ton of guap on it. In fact, I’m happy to just enjoy the world of Zelda the best way I know how: Through memes. If you’ve not cracked into TotK, and you’re worrying about spoilers, fear not: there’s none to be found in this hefty gallery of Legend of Zelda memes. You’re safe. And if you have been playing, well, we reckon you’ll like ‘em too.
