For the first time, all of Link’s weapons can be seen together on your desktop background with the Zelda Weapon Wallpaper. The wallpaper was created by deviantART member James a.k.a. BLUEamnesiac.

Each and every sword from the [Zelda games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lego-legend-of-zelda) is featured in this desktop background. Swords are organized by which game they are from. Die hard fans of the game will notice that the artist livened up some of the more simple swords, just to make things more interesting. Fans can finally feel what it is like to look inside Link’s fully stocked weaponry, the place he finds himself every couple of years when the princess gets kidnapped and he has to go and save her again.
