Learn how to unlock the Hall of Fallen Foes in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time for the Nintendo Switch 2. Includes requirements to unlock it, how to fight bosses again, and provides information for the Rematch Gauntlet.
How to unlock the Hall of Fallen Foes
To unlock the Hall of Fallen Foes, you’ll need to complete the Forest Temple. You must then return to the past as Child Link and walk towards Kakariko Village. Kaepora Gaebora will be at the entrance and tell you about the Hall of Fallen Foes.
How to access the Hall of Fallen Foes
To access the Hall of Fallen Foes, you must go into a bed you can sleep in. There’s one in the upstairs of the Grand Lodge in Kakariko Village that Kaepora Gaebora tells you about. This is the house where you’ll see Auntie cooking.
Walk up to the bed with the green swirl and feathers, interact with it, and go to sleep. You can also use Link’s bed in Kokiri Forest to access the Hall of Fallen Foes.
The Hall of Fallen Foes
The Hall of Fallen Foes shows all of the monsters you have previously defeated. There are a total of 50 monsters to defeat, so be sure to thoroughly explore the world and the dungeons to find them all!
To exit the Hall of Fallen Foes, simply talk to Kaepora Gaebora and select “I’m ready to leave”. You’ll wake up fully restored in the real world.
Monster Lore and Weaknesses
If you go up to any of the statues, you can interact with them to learn some lore about them. It will also list their Main Locations, and Useful Items that are effective against them. You’ll need to try out different items on them to unlock what’s useful.
Boss Rematches
On the outer edges of the hall, you’ll find statues of the bosses you have previously defeated. You can fight them again, but you’ll only be equipped with items useful for that specific fight.
Your health will also be reduced during a rematch to reflect the average amount of health one would have at that time.
Rematch Gauntlet
By interacting with the Owl Statue, you can challenge multiple bosses in a row. Any items consumed only exists within the Hall of Fallen Foes, so don’t worry about having to buy more later.
When you start out, you’ll find a small chest with a gold rupee inside of it. You can then talk to some Business Scrubs to purchase items such as potions, Recovery Hearts, or a Heart Container to increase your max health for this gauntlet.
You do not keep any of the rupees from this gauntlet, so you might as well spend it on items. Sometimes, a third Business Scrub can appear to sell unique items such as Din’s Fire.
When you complete a gauntlet, a trophy will appear inside Link’s House in Kokiri Forest. It never hurts to brush up on your skills by fighting bosses again!
