[[Legend Mode]] is the game's main story mode and is divided into eighteen chapters called "Scenarios." Each Scenario takes place on a battlefield stage based on original locations and those from several eras of Hyrule, with some stages being featured more than once. Free Mode allows any Scenario from Legend Mode to be replayed with any unlocked character. | [[Legend Mode]] is the game's main story mode and is divided into eighteen chapters called "Scenarios."

[[Adventure Mode]] is an alternative gameplay mode, which takes the form of a grid in the shape of the overworld from the original {{TLoZ}}. Each block in the grid represents a battle with specific requirements, such as defeating a certain number of enemies under a specific time limit or taking out a certain number of [[Captain (Hyrule Warriors)|Captain]]s while avoiding devastating attacks. Depending on how well the player performed in the battle, they are given a rank ranging from either A, B, or C. Completing battles with a specified rank unlocks the blocks that would be accessible from that location in {{TLoZ|-}}, although some also require the path to be found using items like the [[Raft]].

New Weapons, as well as new characters, Heart Containers and Pieces of Heart can be unlocked through this mode. | ||
If network access or the ''Master Quest'' rules are active, the battle could be temporarily replaced with a new battle that will give unique rewards, such as upgrades for the DLC characters or rare drops for Link. | If network access or the ''Master Quest'' rules are active, the battle could be temporarily replaced with a new battle that will give unique rewards, such as upgrades for the DLC characters or rare drops for Link. | ||
[[Challenge Mode]] is another alternative gameplay mode, where players are given challenging battle scenarios to complete. First added to the game with the Version 1.2.0 update, the mode is greatly expanded upon following the Version 1.6.0 update and release of the Boss DLC Pack, which adds additional sections to the mode. This included '''Ganon's Fury''', wherein the dark beast [[Ganon]] becomes playable. Challenge Mode and its derivatives are absent in {{HW|L}}. | [[Challenge Mode]] is another alternative gameplay mode, where players are given challenging battle scenarios to complete.

The game also features a local co-op mode. In co-op, one player uses the GamePad as their screen. The Wii U Pro Controller and Wii Remote with Nunchuk control styles are available options for both multiplayer and single player. In single-player, the GamePad functions as a battle status log sub-menu, akin to how it was used in {{TWWHD}}. | The game also features a local co-op mode.
