Customer Ratings & Reviews

I've had this game for years and I wouldn't ever stop playing it. There's so many quests to do and the story is great. I still get scared sometimes from it cuz Gannon is scary but going around and collecting new items to use on different monsters is amazing

EDGE magazine gave this game a 10/10 and said it was quite possibly the best Zelda game yet. I have to agree wholeheartedly. I've easily sunk over 60 hours into the game with much more to go. The game is unmatched when it comes to modern open world RPGs. It's been at least a decade since I've seen an open world where quests don't take the forefront and exploration is rewarded. No matter what you find yourself doing in Breath of the Wild, you will be enjoying yourself and constantly discovering new things that you can do. The physics based engine and carefully crafted shrines and environments allow multiple ways to accomplish nearly all of the puzzles and challenges in the game. Do yourself a favor and pick up this game if you picked up the switch. You will not regret it.

This game, there is a lot of things to say about it. But first and foremost, it lives up to the title "The Legend of Zelda". With a more human approach to character designs and the almost post-apocalyptic feel of the game. It's easy to see that Ganon had won the battle but the war was still open to debate. The combat in Zelda is something I had not seen in the serious before. More than just a single sword/shield, it was about tactics. Blocking too much can cause your shield to shatter, fighting the same monster from before (but now has a steel weapon) will kill you. You. Will. Die. I can not recommend this game enough, as a launch title it sets a standard that other developers will find daunting. Especially in 2017, this will be a hard game to beat in terms of gameplay.

Lots of fun, story follows on legend of Zelda: age of calamity. There’s also DLC content for even more gameplay.

I love this game so much! It had been years since I have played any games and Zelda was always a fav growing up; BOTW does not disappoint. I'm trying to make it last as long as possible by doing everything I can do in the game before going to the castle.

Great title. You can spend a lot of time in this game. Lively world, great for casual and hardcore gamers. If you have a switch, this is a good title to purchase no matter what other games you may have.

Get this if you have any interest in open-world exploration and discovery. I've played 15 hours and barely scratched the surface. Just having fun wandering around, finding treasures, and fighting enemies.

With this game being the flagship game for the new console I expected it to be pretty good and I was not disappointed. It captures the exploration aspect of the original very well and expands it to this generation of gameplay.

The game starts off slow but then gets really interesting once you past the first few areas the amount of places to explore and The items that are one is able to use is great. Great Game

I loved the open world direction the series took in BOTW. The world is alive and full of things to explore and do and multiple ways to defeat enemies and bosses. This is simply a must-have for your switch collection.

There are no words to describe how amazing this game is. Last game I completed in LOZ was a link to the past. I couldn't love the rest. But this game...I can't put it down. Perfection may not be good enough to describe it...

This game has had me hooked since I started playing. I'm a long-time Zelda fan and let me tell you, this game goes back to its roots with the original NES Zelda. You're freely to go anywhere you want, however, you may end up going into a difficult area! The combat is extremely brutal and unlike any past Zelda games! Some times you may be at full health and one little swing at you can kill you so you must learn enemy attack patterns and cook food/potions to give you defense. The exploration in this game is amazing. There are lots of quests to do, lots of weapons to collect, lots of shrines to complete, lots of items to collect (900 KOROK SEEDS!) so for the completiomist, expect to put in over 100 hours. The perfect game to play while you wait for more games to launch

I have a short attention span for video games anymore due to my adult life, so even classic Zelda titles like Ocarina of Time just don't work for me- by the time I'm really in the thick of playing what feels like a Zelda game (and not the introductory part of a Zelda game), I'm already burned out on it, and I just don't feel like the time investment is worth it. Not so here- the game lets you just 'play' almost right away, and the fantastic auto save allows for both experimentation and short-term play. Highly immersive, gigantic, and fun to play. Load times are longer than I'd like, but they're not awful and I probably see more of them because sometimes I think it's fun to try to throw myself into a dire situation and try a few times to fight my way out. Highly recommended.

Got this for one of my boys and he loved it. Great graphics and throwback nod to old Zelda games. Love the open world format. Only thing is that it is a short game especially for the cost. This new console version of Zelda now follows in the same steps as "other" console games where you buy into Season passes (which are only gimmicks to spend more money of what could have been included especially to help in marketing a new hybrid console/handheld). But both my boys love the game so....

BotW is a fantastic open-world game with a great story, beautiful setting, and fun gameplay. Hunting, gathering, battling, exploring, solving the shrine puzzles, completing quests - there's so much to do. Highly recommend

This game has been in the works for a long time, but the wait was worth it. This game is the most immersive Zelda game yet. There is so much to do and the story line is great as well. Must have for any Nintendo fan. 10 STARS!

This was a gift for my husband. He started playing it Christmas Day and loves it! It is the perfect amount of fun, challenge, and fantasy. I commend Best Buy for having this item and at a reasonable price. Many other retailers either were out of stock or had an inflated price. Great game, excellent deal.

This is a strong contender for one of the best games I have ever played. If you enjoy open-world, exploration, free-play games in general this is a must-have.

This video was a gift for my grandson. He really loves it

Great game, very entertaining! Hours of exploration and play time.
