Zelda: BotW/TotK Goddess statues have popped up in Brazil

You ever play a game so much that you start to see it in real life? You might think that’s the case if you’re in Brazil right now, but rest assured, you’re not seeing things.

Those who’ve played The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild are not doubt familiar with Goddess statues, as they are used to upgrade your health and stamina meters. The same mechanic returns in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, and you’ll no doubt be visiting these statues many times over.

Now, those in São Paulo, Brazil will have a chance to check out these Goddess statues in real life! As pointed out by Tuccano on Reddit, a number of Goddess statue replicas have started appearing in the region. They’re certainly wonderful to look at, but we’re sorry to tell you that they won’t imbue you with health or stamina upgrades.

Of course, the question is whether these Goddess statues are viral marketing put in place by Nintendo, or if they’re fan-made. We’re trying to get an answer to that for you, and we’ll report back with our findings.
