Diario AS has published a ranking of the ten best games in The Legend of Zelda series, framing the list around four decades of what the Spanish outlet describes as unforgettable adventures. The article appeared on Sunday, 8 November 2026, and places the franchise's history at the center of its selection.
The ranking arrives as the Nintendo series reaches its 40-year milestone, according to Diario AS. The outlet presents the top ten as a retrospective on the saga rather than a review of any single release.
Coverage of the anniversary extends beyond the AS list. GQ México y Latinoamérica has also published its own selection of the best Zelda games of all time, while the Spanish streaming platform atresplayer has aired a program titled "Un videojuego de leyenda: The Legend of Zelda," treating the series as a subject in its own right. Together, the pieces reflect broad Spanish-language media interest in the franchise's legacy.
The source material does not specify which titles occupy which positions on the AS list, so the individual placements are not detailed here. Readers seeking the full order can consult the original Diario AS article.
What to watch next: whether other outlets publish competing rankings as the anniversary coverage continues, and how the AS selection compares with GQ's list.
