From time to time, Japanese publication Famitsu will run a survey about a certain game asking readers all sorts of questions.

The latest one focused on Nintendo’s 2023 game of the year contender The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, asking readers who their favourite character is in Link’s latest outing and Princess Zelda took out the top spot. Link was second and Ganondorf was in 8th spot.

These results are based on 1290 participants, but this is just a small sample of the game’s massive player base and not everyone responded to every question. Here’s the full list (via Nintendo Everything):
