This page lists the requirements needed for 100% Completion in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild's Walkthrough. There exists in the game a completion rate that you can increase by completing certain tasks in the game.
How to Unlock the Completion Rate in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
The only way you can see what your total completion progress is at is by beating the Breath of the Wild Main Quest Walkthrough. After defeating the final boss you will be allowed to load the last auto-save before the end, and the save file will have a star that denotes you have completed the game on that save file.

In this save file, you can look at your map on the Sheikah Slate, and in the bottom left corner alongside the time of day and temperature is a new percentage out of 100% that tracks your total completion. However, this completion percentage ONLY applies to what has been discovered on the map. There is no overall completion percentage for other activities in the game - but you'll also be able to track how many Main Quests, Side Quests, and Shrine Quests you have completed out of the total amount in your Adventure Log.
NOTE: It is important to know that there is NO REWARD for a 100% completion rate. This exists for bragging rights alone - and for the die-hard completionists!
Completion Checklist - What Counts in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
Not all activities counts towards the 100% completion rate in Breath of the Wild. There are only four main categories that are tracked on the map: Dungeons cleared (location appears on the map), Korok Seeds (icon that appears once you have claimed a seed), Shrine Discoveries, and Location Discoveries. Each of these will count towards approximately .08% (sometimes you may get a 0.9% increase) of your completion rating. Based on what we know, this boils down to the following
| (4) Divine Beast - 0.08% each | 0.32% |
| (120) Shrines- 0.08% each See also: Shrine Quests | 9.60% |
| ~(226) Locations - 0.08% or 0.09% each See:Locations by Region Locations are areas on the map that are not listed until Link travels there and the name appears briefly on screen.] | 18.08% |
| (900) Korok Seeds See: Korok Seed Locations | 72% |
| Total | 100% |
