This article is about the recurring location. For the Level in Four Swords Adventures, see The Dark World.

The Dark World,(ALttP | FSA)[1] also known as the Evil Realm,(OoT)[2] is a recurring location in The Legend of Zelda series. It is a twisted dimension parallel to the kingdom of Hyrule, which is referred to as Light World in contrast, and a corrupted incarnation of the Sacred Realm.[3] The Dark World debuted in A Link to the Past, making it the first of many realms alternate to Hyrule to appear in the series, the others being Termina, the Twilight Realm, the World of the Ocean King, and Lorule.

Though Four Swords Adventures also features a Dark World of its own, it does not seem to share a connection with the original in A Link to the Past. It should be noted that the former game features several references to A Link to the Past. According to Hyrule Historia, a Dark World is again featured in Twilight Princess, though this realm is the combination of Hyrule and the Twilight Realm.[4] ==Notes==
