How To Get Every Heart Piece In Zelda Echoes Of Wisdom

If anything is worth going out of your way to collect in Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom, aside from Echoes (of course), it’s Heart Pieces. More health means that Zelda can survive more hits, and that’s definitely something worth aiming for.

There are a total of 40 Heart Pieces to be found or obtained around Hyrule, with most coming from exploration while some are obtained through various side quests. Collecting four Heart Pieces will reward Zelda with an entire extra heart, allowing her to keep going for longer in battle.

The map above shows the location of every Heart Piece that’s possible to get in Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom, and it can seem a little overwhelming at first glance. Let’s break this down area by area, so you can tick off all of the Heart Pieces as you explore the various biomes and areas of Hyrule.

Heart Pieces in Suthorn

There are a total of five Heart Pieces that can be gathered in the various parts of Suthorn. These are particularly useful, as Suthorn is the first area that Zelda gets the freedom to explore, and collecting all five of these Heart Pieces will give her an additional heart very early into the game.
