The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is an open-world action-adventure game with a massive land to explore, quests to go on, and many side activities for Link to partake in, including building an entire town from scratch that provides the player with helpful vendors. Trekking across Hyrule on foot through mountains, volcanoes, and deserts, can get monotonous as times for those who dislike spending time traveling from one point to another. Luckily, Link can gather many horses from throughout the land and drop them off at stables to use them for later.
In Breath of the Wild, if a player has been traveling by horse but had to get off of it for whatever reason can simply press down on the d-pad to call them back to Link. This will only work if the horse is close to Link, otherwise, there won't be a horse coming to help Link out. If there isn't a horse nearby Link, players will need to find the closest stable. If a player has been to a stable before, it'll appear on the map, but if not, players will need to find the stable themselves by searching the world. Luckily, players can find all of the stables by checking out this other Breath of the Wild guide,
Once one of the stables are unlocked, Link can bring tamed horses there and they'll be kept safe until the player wants to take them out and use them to explore.
How to Tame a Horse
If a player is exploring the open world of Breath of the Wild, they're able to tame horses that roam the wild plains. To get close to one before it tries to run away, players will need to quietly approach the horse by crouching. This can be done by holding down the left joystick. Once they get close enough, they can press the A button to climb on top of the horse, and depending on its power level, players may need to soothe it down by pressing the L button.
Basic horses will be fairly easy to take over but animals like the Giant Horse won't be as simple and demands a little more work to be put into it, and will even require Link to have two full stamina meters.
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is available for the Nintendo Switch and Wii U. Currently, a sequel to the game is in development for the Switch but there's no confirmed release date just yet.
