Dark Link is a boss in the Legend of Zelda series, and appears as a guest object exclusive to the Wii U and European 3DS versions of Scribblenauts Unlimited. As the name implies, they are a dark, evil, replica of Link, and are often one of the hardest enemies in the game.
Dark link has identical stats to Link, but attacks Zelda series protagonists.
Despite being a Zelda boss, Dark Link is considered a neutral NPC. He will ignore the player and all non-Zelda NPCs unless he is directly provoked.
Even though Dark Link did not appear in The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, his design in Scribblenauts is based on Link's appearance from that game, which was done to mirror Link. Features such as the all-black body and angry red eyes are common on other iterations of Dark Link however.

- Despite being meant to be an exact replica of link, Dark Link cannot equip the Hylian Shield like Link can.
- Dark Link being an evil replica of Link parallels Doppelganger and Maxwell.
