If you like Zelda games, you'll love Breath of the Wild. Awesome open world, amazing gameplay, and the art direction is fantastic. Can't say enough good things about this game. A must-have for the Switch.

5/5 Stars, a truly great game. NOT in my top 5 Zelda games, but that speaks for the quality of the series.
I highly recommend the game. It is great and the feeling of exploration is grand. Something that can only be captured by the Zelda franchise.
Contrary to other reviews, the game DOES have flaws. It's just... They are so minor while the rest of the game is so great. There is plenty of literature out there with full reviews. I highly recommend you purchase the game if you like ADVENTURES and LONG PLAYTIMES. If you like brief stories... This isn't for you. The amount of time required to get to and beat the first boss of the game is about the length of an average FPS story mode. If you are looking for big 'splosions and long cutscenes of exposition, stay clear.

I’ve been a Zelda fan all my life. This game execution is incredible Is the longest game in Zelda history. Really enjoyed the open world. Which you have the option to go anywhere and play the story your own way.

This is a wonderful game, allowing a completely open world platform, visually stunning experience. Zelda gaming has certainly grown up from 2D platform NES days. Time bring a classic favorite to new technology.

The modern formula for what makes a game grand is the openness or the jam-packed amount of activities placed within a fully-realized world. The Legend of Zelda BOTW is no different, offering hundreds of hours of gameplay where the player feels compel to check every crevices for hidden secrets and koroks, and rewarding the player with a sense of growth and accomplishment. What makes it stand out from the other open-world action RPGs is its ability to take the player through a nostalgic feeling of the N64 days and yet blow a breath of fresh air with new mechanics, puzzles, and lore.

What can I say about this game that millions of others haven't said. There is a reason it is one of the top selling games of all time. Its a modern classic that deserves the title. This is my second copy. One to keep sealed and the other to play. I always recommend this game to first time Switch buyers. Hours of game play, hundreds of hours.

This game has been non-stop fun since I picked it up on release day. Huge open world, great combat, great story and pretty visuals. I am 50+ hours in and still have a lot to do. This game is a must have on Switch or Wii U.

It's been several years since I last played a Zelda game but I have to say this is probably one of the best games I've ever played and by far the best Zelda game ever produced. The graphics and gameplay for a handheld are impressive and Nintendo has really outdone itself... perhaps to make up for losing gamers after it's last attempt at a platform release. The game itself is great for kids but also challenges adults with the expected puzzles Zelda has always had to offer. The massive amount of weapons and upgrades you come across definitely keep you coming back and you'll learn that trying new recipes when cooking up elixirs can even be fun and challenging. If you already have a Switch, this is a must have and one of the best launch games in the history of gaming.

I have never played a Zelda game before due to not having a Nintendo system, but heard so many good things about it online, and a friend at work, so I decided to add it to my bundle when I bought my Switch. Oh my goodness, this game is awesome! It is easy to get carried away and just go exploring the massive map, and the graphics make it even that much better! I can tell it will take a long time for me to beat, but I enjoy games like that, I don't like spending $60 on a game I can beat in a few weeks or so, this is not one of those games and I love it! Hoping that some older Zelda games get ported to the Switch since I have been missing out
Beautiful art; Well Optimized; Open world&PURE FUN

Stable game to get with your switch. The gameplay; Art and immersion are great with this game. I haven't played a good Zelda game since Wind Waker on Gamecube. I played it so much my Switch bricked while it was docked. Worse part? I bought it brand new with the game yet could not exchange my console at ALL within the return period as all local locations were sold out. Hopefully, Nintendo is able to replace my switch. Because of this, I advise ANYONE to make a Nintendo account as they had cloud saves for this game builtin and I can be at ease all my binged hours are saved and I can get back into the Artful Bliss of this Hyrule again!

Great game. Great mix of traditional Legend of Zelda mechanics with open world gameplay and modern RPG elements. Must own/play game for all who own a switch

Finally got around to playing botw. With totk right around the corner, I figured I should finally play this game and man was it good. I cant really put it into words how good it was, but its been a while since I've played such a great single player game. The overall mechanics and feel is so well crafted. The combat loop is fun and satisfying while exploring the world is exciting.

The Switch is awesome in it's own right but this game is amazing! It is better than I hoped it would be. Beautiful and so much to do! If you are a Zelda fan, or just a fan of open world RPGs then you'll love this, too. :)
