TheSacred Land (聖地,Holy Land) is a sub-world found inThe Dark Realm withinAdventure Mode inSuper Smash Bros. Ultimate. It is located at the end of the west path. The boss of this sub-world isGanon.

The Sacred Land is entirely based on theTriforce fromThe Legend of Zelda.Owl Statues fromThe Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask are scattered throughout and give players hints.

TheTriforce of Courage section is based on theLost Woods inOcarina of Time. In order to solve the section, the player must rely on the owl statues. Most of thespirit battles contain fog, reflecting the foggy atmosphere of the Lost Woods. While the player is in this section,Saria's Song / Middle Boss Battle plays.

TheTriforce of Wisdom section is based onKakariko Village inBreath of the Wild and featurestorches forming a clock. The player must light the torches for a giventime to unlock certain appearances. While the player is in this section,Dark World (for 3DS / Wii U) plays.

TheTriforce of Power section is based on theGerudo Desert and theGerudo Fortress inOcarina of Time. This land cannot be accessed until the player activates theMaster Sword in the center of the land. The Gerudo Desert portion is made of two paths. The right path features easier spirit battles, but with morespirits in general. The left path, referred to as the Path of Wisdom by one of the owl statues, features fewer but harder spirit battles. Both paths eventually merge in the Gerudo Fortress portion. While the player is in this section,Hyrule Castle (Outside) plays.

Spirits[edit]

Thespirits found here are highly varied, though most relate to theZelda series' themes ofcourage,wisdom, andpower.

Trivia[edit]

• The battle types for the unlockableZelda characters coincide with the color of thegoddesses which held theTriforce parts represented by the characters.
• AlthoughBowser is unlocked by defeatingGiga Bowser,Ganondorf is unlocked in a separate battle fromGanon, and is, in fact, mandatory in order to face Ganon.
• This sub-world's name is likely based on the "Sacred Realm" mentioned throughoutThe Legend of Zelda lore. The fact that it is in the Dark Realm could be an allusion to its transformation into theDark World upon Ganondorf entering it inOcarina of Time. In addition, it shares its Japanese name with the Sacred Realm.
