Quick Links

Regional Phenomena is a main quest in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom that players will receive from Purah after activating the Lookout Landing Skyview Tower. To complete this quest, fans must assist the Rito, Zora, Goron, and Gerudo, which is quite a monumental endeavor. Indeed, some players may feel slightly overwhelmed by the scope of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom's Regional Phenomena quest, and this walkthrough is here to help them through it.

To note, while it is recommended that Tears of the Kingdom players follow the order that is used in this guide, it is certainly not requisite that they do so. Indeed, fans are free to pursue the four phenomena in any order that they wish, as they entirely separate from one another. That said, some sections of Regional Phenomena are definitely more difficult than others, and jumping directly into the most-challenging parts of this quest may lead to some frustration.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom - Regional Phenomena (Hebra)

To address the phenomenon in Hebra, players must travel to Rito Village in the northwest corner of the map. More specifically, fans must make their way to top of the village, and a cutscene will trigger as they approach the Rito at coordinates -3596, 1802, 0212.

As soon as this scene comes to end, players will receive a new main quest called Tulin of Rito Village. Fans should now put their efforts toward addressing that quest, and this complete walkthrough of Tears of the Kingdom's Tulin of Rito Village will assist with that endeavor. Notably, players will be back in Rito Village upon reaching the end of the walkthrough, and the region's phenomenon will be resolved at that point.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom - Regional Phenomena (Lanayru)

At the center of the regional phenomenon in Lanayru is Zora's Domain on the east side of the map. Here, players should make their way to coordinates 3300, 0463, 0139, and speak with the Zora to initiate the Sludge-Covered Statue main quest.

To complete this quest, players must simply throw a Splash Fruit at the nearby statue, and they will receive the Sidon of the Zora quest when that job is done. This complete walkthrough of Tears of the Kingdom's Sidon of the Zora will help players address that multipart main quest and correct the troublesome phenomenon in the region.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom - Regional Phenomena (Eldin)

Players can start dealing with the phenomenon in Eldin by traveling to Goron City in the northeast corner of the map. Upon arriving at this location, fans should speak with the Goron at coordinates 1649, 2447, 0381, and that conversation will ultimately initiate a new main quest called Yunobo of Goron City.

Players can now start completing that quest's objectives, which will send them into Death Mountain and beyond. This complete walkthrough of Tears of the Kingdom's Yunobo of Goron City will help fans through all of those objectives, and the quest will be marked as complete when they reach the end of that guide.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom - Regional Phenomena (Gerudo)

The phenomenon in the Gerudo Desert is a massive sandstorm, and players will need to pass through it to reach Gerudo Town in the southwest corner of the map. This can prove to be a bit difficult, as the storm scrambles Link's map, preventing fans from monitoring their progress toward the quest waypoint.

To deal with this issue, players should look for upward air currents within the storm, and then use them to temporarily rise above the sand. Indeed, fans will have the ability to check their maps in TotK when they are in this airborne position, allowing them to correct their course and reach Gerudo Town.

Once a player does finally make it to this desert town, they will need to put some effort toward sneaking into the Gerudo Shelter. While this can be done in several ways, the easiest is to enter the room at coordinates -3889, 2933, 0444, use Ultrahand to move the rectangular desk, and fall into the hole that is revealed.

Upon falling, Link will be confronted by the Gerudo, and players will receive the Riju of Gerudo Town main quest following a short cutscene. Once again, fans must finish this quest in order to resolve the region's phenomenon, and this complete walkthrough of Tears of the Kingdom's Riju of Gerudo Town details exactly how that is done.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom - Regional Phenomena End

With all four phenomena addressed, players can make their way to Lookout Landing and speak with Purah on the tower at coordinates -0229, 0149, 0050. The Regional Phenomena main quest will be marked as complete when that conversation ends, and fans can then start pursuing an update to the Crisis at Hyrule Castle main quest.
