I had a great time with Age of Calamity, but it didn’t feel outstanding. Age of Imprisonment however took everything great from AoC, corrected a lot of issues that it had, and made this masterpiece. The story played out differently than I thought it would, but no complaints here! Calamo and his bud really stole the show and are now some of my favorite Zelda characters. But the best part of this game is the fact that it clears up a lot of misunderstandings from Tears of the Kingdom and makes it all make more sense. TotK wishes it had the storytelling AoI had, Koei Tecmo really left Nintendo’s writers in the dust here. AoI has an amazing cast of 19 playable characters, most of them totally brand new! But it was so much fun getting to know them all and their unique personalities and fighting styles. The diverse characters and multitudes of team combinations really kept the game intetesting for me despite being warned that it was repetitive. Yes it is repetitive. But you’re buying a Warriors game, not a traditional Zelda game so you should expect a “beat ‘em up” style the whole time. The visuals are stunning, I thought I booted up a PS5 for a sec, the soundtrack is gorgeous, and it’s overall such a good time. My only gripe is that a certain character I was hoping to play as is not playable (hoping for DLC later???) but brand new characters like Quino, Cadlan, and Vence made me (almost) forget. If you love the world of Zelda and/or TotK left a bitter taste in your mouth, I highly reccomend you check out Age of Imprisonment.

This game is more than I expected it to be. Graphics are great and the story line to boot is also more than expected. It's not like the last hyrule warrior I feel like.

Zelda (Switch 2) Game Review
I recently played Zelda on the Switch 2 and was thoroughly impressed. The game showcases the incredible power of the new console, with stunning visuals and smooth performance that make exploring the world feel immersive and seamless.
Overall, I would rate Zelda a 9 out of 10. Even without highlighting specific favorite features or major criticisms, it’s clear that the game delivers a top-tier experience worthy of the Zelda name.
If you’re a fan of adventure games or the series in general, this is a must-play title on the Switch 2.

Another solid entry in the Hyrule Warriors series. Unlike the prior game, this has a much more stable frame rate, and feels a bit more put together. The new characters and environments add a lot of variance to the missions, and the storytelling is enjoyable.

Even if you are not a fan of the zelda series this is a great game to play in the Switch 2 system
I got 20+ hours played in the game and I can tell it worth it
I got a very good experience in the handle mode but I really reccomend play in the docked mode because I played in the handle mode because I dont want to speedrun the game, giving me an average of 2h 30m until my switch give me the alert of 15% remaining, thats an alert for me to take a pause and play the game later so I enjoy it for more time
Very good gameplay, character desing, exelent voices
The only bad things that I could say about it are the quality of some cut-scenes that just feel at a low resolution, and sometimes low quality renders when there are to many enemies in screen, BUT AS I SAID, THIS IS MY EXPERIENCE IN HANDLE MODE, I SUPPOSED THAT IN THE DOCKED VERSION THIS BAD THINGS ARE NOT HAPPENING

This game puts a good wrap up to the botw era. It is a true prequel to tears of the kingdom that isn’t like age of calamity. There’s enough little things to do if you want to 100% the game. I’m about 90% done with the map and I have put in around 40 hours so far. This is the best a warriors game has run on Nintendo hardware too! No lagging when there is a lot going on the screen. You do see occasional lagging when playing handheld but I mostly play with my switch 2 docked.

Terrific Sendoff for BOTW Era Zelda

This looks fantastic and runs like a dream on the Switch 2. If you played Age of Calamity on Switch and were concerned about performance issues, it is a complete non-factor for Age of Imprisonment on Switch 2. This means you get all the Warriors style hack 'n' slash action and over the top specials without the annoying technical issues. The results are pretty amazing. The story is serviceable and it's a great sendoff to this Breath of the Wild era of the Zelda franchise. There is also a ton of content that will keep you busy for hours, even outside the main story. Free challenge missions have already been added too. This will keep you busy for a while.

Great game. Fantastic gameplay. Compelling story. I love how it shows what Zelda went through during her part in the tears of the kingdom story. They used actual cut scenes fro. Tears and added layera to them giving a fuller amd more intense explanation of events, while making giving this a feeling of it own.

This game is fantastic story-wise, basically filling in the void that Tears of the Kingdom left from when Zelda went back to ancient Hyrule at the beginning of that game. It's got the similar things you remember from the last game of this style, but cooks in such an enjoyable way that it puts a bow on everything.

My oldest is loving this. Had the expectation that it was just a hack-a-thon button masher but it has quite a bit of story that elevates Zelda TOTK & a good bit of strategy in gameplay that evolves through the story and difficulty levels
