Heart Containers have long been one of The Legend of Zelda's most recognisable rewards, increasing Link's maximum health after a major victory. In Breath of the Wild, released in 2017, that tradition continued in an open world where shrines and Divine Beast bosses marked major milestones. The fanfare therefore became shorthand for progress in gameplay videos, streams and edits, even for viewers who had never played the game. Its continued use comes from that instant recognition: a few notes are enough to signal that something important has been earned.
