How To Import Your Horse

TotK - Link on Horse

The process to import your horse is incredibly simple, given you have the saved data from Breath of the Wild on the same Switch system as Tears of the Kingdom. Once you have the same saved data on your console, then it's time to go through the following steps:

  1. Go to any stable in the game.
  2. Speak with the character behind the counter at the stable.
  3. Ask to view your horses, and you will see your horse there.
  4. Choose to bring them out.

With that, you now have your beloved horse from Breath of the Wild in this new game, ready to ride out into Hyrule once again.

And don't fret for those of you who don't have this option; there are still plenty of mounts and horses for you to find out in the wild in Tears of the Kingdom. You will have your perfect steed in no time.

And if you have no horses to import from Breath of the Wild - or you just want to start over fresh - there are plenty of great options you can find all across the map. You can pick anyone to fit your needs and wants.
