The name points to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Nintendo's open-world adventure released in 2017, where Hyrule is filled with ambient wildlife sounds as well as music and combat effects. Short clips like this raven call circulate on soundboards because they capture that atmosphere in a single, reusable second and a half. Editors favor them for Zelda fan videos, streams and memes precisely because they sound like the game world itself rather than a generic stock bird, keeping a clip recognisable to players without needing a longer excerpt.
About this sound
A short raven call from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, recorded in a coniferous forest area. Fans use it for game edits and nature scenes.
This is a brief, sharp raven call lifted from the world of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, lasting just over a second and a half. The caw is dry and slightly raspy, with a quick rise and fall that cuts through background music without overpowering it, giving the impression of a bird calling from high in pine trees. In context it feels wild and a little lonely, instantly signalling open forest, exploration and the quiet corners of Hyrule away from towns and battles. Used on its own it works as a small atmospheric touch for a landscape shot or to punctuate a moment of discovery.
