Just like with Breath of the Wild, there are countless Korok Seeds scattered all across Hyrule in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Every region has a set amount of Korok seeds that can be found, including the Great Sky Island. Korok Seeds can even be found in Central Hyrule where players land when they complete the quest to enter the Temple of Time.

Every Korok Seed requires Tears of the Kingdom players to solve some sort of puzzle to find the hidden Korok. In total, there are 66 Korok Seeds for players to discover in both Central Hyrule and around what is left of the castle.
