There Are 11 Playable Links In The Loz, 12 If Oracles Is Actualy His Own Link, 16 If You Count Triforce

There are 11 playable links in the loz, 12 if oracles is actualy his own link, 16 if you count triforce hero's and hyrule legends, and 19 if you count the four swords hero as 4 separate links.

List with games featuring same link grouped:

• Skyward sword

• Minish cap

• Four swords & four swords adventures

• ocarina of time and majora's mask

• twilight princess

• Wind waker & phantom hourglass

• Spirit tracts

• The original loz & the adventure of link

• Link between worlds

• Breath of the wild

• Link to past, oracles, & links awakening

• hyrule legends

• triforce heroes

Explanations of oddities in the counting:

It is possible that the link from oracles is his own hero.

There are 3 heroes in trifoce heros.

The reason why I put triforce heroes and hyrule legends in a separate grouping is due to uncertainty over if they are considered cannon to the loz universe.

-> there is also the hero of 10000 years ago who is mentioned in botw, but has no game.

-> There is also the First Hero from that comic if you want to count him as cannon. (personally I don't. It's not that I don't like him, it's just it conflicts with what I understand the intro to skyward sword is saying.)

So, that would make the current max number of links -if you count all as cannon- to be 21.

Fun note! The four swords link is a lovely example of why the official timeline is worthless. It is more than heavy-handedly implied that it is the same link in the two four swords games.

Considering the people of hyrule's habit of forgetting the hero's name the moment he dies, I find it extremely unlikely that they would mention link by name if it's not the same link. Also considering hyrule's long standing tradition of forgetting about where major big bad evils are sealed, I have very, very, VERY many doubts that they would just happen to have been keeping meticulous track of where a minor wind sorcerer is seald. Need more convincing? So according to the timeline, the minish cap and four swords are right next to each other. By the events of four swords the hero's name from minish cap has been forgotten. Now if the timeline is to be believed, an absurd amount of time and one timeline split later they still remember the story of the four swords perfectly. Yet have no recollection of oot or tp. That doesn't line up. So I'm calling BS on the timeline.

Oh you want more math? Sure thing!

Only counting links that are for sure cannon = 11 links

If oracles is separate link = 12 links

Counting four swords as 4 links = 14 links

FS = 4 links + oracles = 15 link

FS + oracles + hero of 10000 years ago = 16 links

I could go on, but I don't really feel like doing that right now.
