This game is the reason I purchased the Nintendo Switch console. If you enjoy the Legend of Zelda series, or if you like open world RPGs, this a huge game with countless hours of exploration and entertainment. Definitely worth it!

What can I say about this game that others haven't already? A++, a staple of owning a switch. I've no idea anything about Zelda other than this and I still adore it.

The design and execution is breathtaking. The storytelling is involved and consistent. One of the best games ever. It is a world big enough to lose yourself in for a long time. There is no finishing this in a weekend. More than worth the money,

This game is beautiful. The graphics are breath-taking.
Game play is immersive, open-world is amazing, and the controls are pretty straight-forward. It is a vast game with tons to do and completely engrossing.
To me, easily the best Legend of Zelda game to date.

I bought a Switch to play this. Open world done right. if you like exploration this game will be everything you ever wanted. weapon durability is the only major complaint I have. otherwise Nintendo really did an amazing job.

Get this game. I don't even need to say anything else about it. It is the best Zelda game I have ever played. The graphics are beautiful, the open world is phenomenal, and the game brings Zelda into a new genre without compromising any of its Zelda-esque gameplay elements. Highly recommend

We purchased this game for my 12 year old son for Christmas and he's enjoyed playing every minute of it. For those that loved the old Zelda game from the 80s, this takes that concept but puts it in an open world with an Assassians Creed feel. Great family game!

This game has endless things to do specially when combined with expansion pack. Even without expansion pack it will take a long time to complete main quests in game. At the begining it will be a little hard but as you build Link’s stamina and health game would be a lot easier.

From what I hear...
So, here's the thing, I haven't played this one much yet, just the opening really. Seems like the controls are going to be good, and the story fantastic. I'm told that the game is wonderful, and I'm really looking forward to getting more into it.

I have only played part of this game, but I already think it could be one of the best Zelda games ever. The open world style really makes the experience seem so big. The map is massive and so far the puzzles have been great.

As a long time Zelda fan this is my favorite game in the entire series. All of the Zelda lore and charm are here in full force and the huge open world is home to many sweeping fields and beautiful vistas. If you are an old fan or new to the series this is the perfect entry point. This is the first game I bought with my Switch and I expect it will last me a few hundred hours before I have to pull out my wallet again for another game. Of course there are many more games I want to get on Switch like Splatoon 2, ARMS, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, etc but this seemed like a must-have title to start out my collection with. Now I feel bad for my 3DS and all my unfinished games. I have barely picked up my 3DS since I got the Switch. Overall I highly recommend this game.

Bought this as a gift for my husband on his birthday. He said it’s an awesome game: open universe where you can explore and burn hours of free time lol. I know he lived Red Dead Redemption and he said it’s kind of like that.

Long time Zelda fan here and I bought a Switch for this game. It's one of the best open world games ever made. I don't really care for the shrine grind vs dungeons but the world itself has such interactive gameplay I can forgive any faults this game has. A must own for any Switch owner.

I have been a hardcore LOZ fan since ocarina of time. The incorporation of the open world theme and mini temples (shrines) has taken this game to a whole new level. Between side quests and main quests, this game is non stop fun filled with enough puzzles and action to last a lifetime!

This game is simply amazing. Tons to do and completely open world. The graphics are unparalleled and the fact that they have finally incorporated voice actors in the Zelda series is a serious step up. I have barely started the game and I agree with IGN when they give it a 10/10.

i thought the 3ds link between worlds, would go down as one of the best for its complete open world that let you accomplish any dungeon/task in any order, this is that same concept TENFOLD with the added graphical upgrade, i wonder if this will be the new zelda formula! we can only hope!

I guess it was worth the wait: this is the definitive Zelda game. Granted I have a few complaints about the difficulty level and amount of actual bosses, but you may never find every Korok seed in your lifetime! A must buy!

If you have a Switch, you have this game. If you don't have this game, you need to get this game. This Zelda game is one of the best in the entire series. Changing up the standard Zelda formula paid off for Nintendo - big time.
Not only is the gameplay incredible, and not only are the puzzles intricate and just the right level of challenging, but the level of detail that has gone into this game is staggering. Every nook and cranny, every line of dialogue, every weapon, and every side quest - everything in the game has been carefully crafted so as to make the world feel alive and immense. If you play through the game and skip 80% of the material, sticking to the main quest and not dabbling in side missions, you're going to have a great time. If you spend your time searching out hidden easter eggs and explore every corner of the map, you're going to have a great time.
If you love Zelda games, get this. It's worth every rupee.
