How many horses can you board in the new Zelda Tears of the Kingdom? The answer to this question is crucial to a certain type of Zelda player. If you’re the type to try and tame every single type of horse in the game or try to collect all of Hyrule’s special or rare horses, then you’re probably curious to know how many horses you can keep at one time. While the stables in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom allow you to board multiple horses, space in the stables is limited, so you’ll want to be careful how many horses you try to tame.
How Many Horses Can You Board in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom?
Zelda Tears of the Kingdom will allow you to board six horses at once. It’s a fair amount of horses, in our opinion, though it’s not hard for a horse-loving player to hit that limit quickly. Six is also the limit for the entire game since, like in Breath of the Wild, all of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom‘s stables are connected, allowing you to board your horse at any of the eleven stables in the game and take it out at a completely different stable. Keep in mind that this limit also includes Zelda Tears of the Kingdom’sย special horses, like the Golden Horse,ย the Giant White Stallion, and Epona, but not the unregistrable mounts like the Stalhorse or deer. Since those can’t be registered in the first place, they can’t be counted against your horse-boarding limit.
The game has no penalty or fine for reaching the six-horse limit. The only change is that when you tame a new horse and try to register it at a stable, the stable manager will inform you that you’ve reached your limit. If you want to keep this new horse, you’ll have to let one of your old ones go to stay under the maximum number of horses at the stable. Letting your horse go means it will return to the wild, and the chances of you finding it again are slim to none, so make sure you’re 100% certain about your decision before confirming your choice with the stable manager. After you let one of your old horses go, you’ll be able to register your new horse, bringing you back up to the six-horse boarding limit and meaning you’ll have to repeat this process any time you want another new horse.
