There are 44 Pieces of Heart in The Wind Waker HD. Every four adds a heart to Link's life meter, so all 44 give you eleven extra hearts. Add the six Heart Containers from the dungeon bosses and Link goes from 3 hearts to a full 20. Many pieces are sunken treasure: you find the spot with a Treasure Chart, sail there and pull the chest up with the Grappling Hook. The Sea Hearts Chart and Island Hearts Chart mark every piece on your Sea Chart.
What Changed From the GameCube Version
ChangedSavage Labyrinth: the chest at the bottom of the labyrinth on Outset Island holds the Hero's Charm in HD. The Piece of Heart that was there is now a sunken treasure at Two-Eye Reef, found with the new Treasure Chart 46.
ChangedWithered trees: Forest Water now stays fresh for 30 minutes instead of 20.
The total is still 44, and every other piece is in the same place.
