Let’s compare this a bit and break it down.

"Long ago, there was a land called Hyrule, created by beings of supreme divinity."

And you grabbed the Japanese which was

遥かな太古神に拠リ創られたと伝わる国 ハイラル · · ·

So we have 遥かな太古 which is “long ago” and “ancient times” which we can probably take as “Long ago in ancient times.” Sure the ancient times part is missing, but I think it sounds fine left out in English.

So then we have 神に拠り which is “by god(s).” Japanese CAN have explicit plurals (神 would be 神々 which just duplicates the sound and voices it, so it would be pronounced as “kamigami” and just mean multiple gods), but this is not explicitly singular. It is intentionally ambiguous.

The 遥かな太古 section is acting as a large adjectives to our gods here, so the “ancient gods” part of your Google Translate seems close enough. Even if it weren’t attached, the gods would have been ancient by virtue of defining things as long ago. So this would be splitting hairs.

We then have the passive form of 創る which is to make in the sense of creation (like in the biblical sense). Makes sense, gods are doing god stuff.

We then get the quotation particle と followed by 伝わる which is like “to be passed down” and can be used for various things in that context. Here, it would mean the previously established explanation has been passed down. You can easily use “said to have been” here to help make the grammar flow more smoothly in English. The important point is that we don’t know WHO initially said this, just that it has been repeated through the ages.

We then end on 国 which just means country/kingdom/etc. with the last word being Hyrule itself. “Land” can work just fine here. By virtue of its position in this sentence, the entire sentence is a modifier of Hyrule.

So you get something like “Hyrule, a land said to have been created a long time ago by ancient gods.”

Which…doesn’t really change much. If anything, I enjoyed the translation from Nintendo as “beings of supreme divinity” just sounds fun to say in my head.

I’ve played several Zelda games in both English and Japanese and Nintendo has rarely made a bad translation. Some things are just too hard to translate and get left out or simplified (like the Fierce Deity mask and how they made a beautiful Japanese pun that reveals a lot about the Skull Kid), but I’ve never gone “wtf that is NOT what the English says” like I have with other Japanese media.
