'''[[zeldawiki:Hyrule_Castle|Hyrule Castle]]''' is the seat of the [[zeldawiki:Hyrulean_Royal Family|Hyrulean Royal Family]] in ''[[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda (series)|The Legend of Zelda]]''. It has appeared in crossovers between the ''Super Mario'' and ''The Legend of Zelda'' series.

Hyrule Castle is a lengthy stage in ''Super Smash Bros.'' based off how it appeared in ''[[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time]]'' . In the single-player mode, Hyrule Castle is the first stage the player battles on. During gameplay, a whirlwind will occasionally appear about every 30 seconds; any character in it is blown upwards, and sometimes out of the stage if sufficiently damaged. The castle also has a little shack at the far right end of the stage, which may act as an additional platform.

In a Nintendo Direct that premiered on June 14, 2015, [[Masahiro Sakurai]] revealed that they have been working on porting Hyrule Castle and [[Peach's Castle (Super Smash Bros.)|Peach's Castle]] into ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U]]'' as DLC.

This level serves as [[Link]]'s home stage in the game. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', a similar but much larger stage called [[Temple]] takes its place. Hyrule Castle, in it's ''[[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess]]'' incarnation, also appears in the background of the [[Bridge of Eldin]] stage in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U''.

Hyrule Castle appears as part of the downloadable course [[Hyrule Circuit]]. As the castle is surrounded by [[zeldawiki:Zora's River|Zora's River]], racers will access it by using a [[Boost Pad|Glider Pad]] in [[zeldawiki:Hyrule_Field|Hyrule Field]] to fly to the roof. When the racer enters the castle, they will drive on a small staircase to a large chamber that houses several [[zeldawiki:Rupee|Rupees]] and the [[zeldawiki:Master Sword|Master Sword]] resting on the [[zeldawiki:Pedestal of Time|Pedestal of Time]], surrounded by several glass monuments; a small glider pad will occassionally appear in front of the Pedestal of Time, providing a significant speedboost if the Master Sword is touched. The racer will then drive out of the castle through a bridge leading into [[zeldawiki:Hyrule Castle Town|Hyrule Castle Town]].
