Customers are saying

Customers are enthusiastic about the engaging gameplay, expansive open world, and compelling story of "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Explorer's Edition." Many appreciate the game's vast content and exploration opportunities, along with the included map and guide. However, some players found the difficulty challenging, and the weapon durability system frustrating. The price point and additional content of the Explorer's Edition were also frequently praised.

    This is a game that demands to be lived in. The scope is massive, the world beautiful, and even mundane tasks are fun. The lack of handholding tutorials may mean some early deaths as you get the ropes, but the autosave feature is incredibly generous and the freedom it brings is unparalleled and immensely rewarding.

    Can you be a Nintendo fan and not like Zelda? It’s a classic. I remember playing the original Zelda back in the 80s and though it was so cool. If I only knew what the switch had in store for me all these years later my mind would have been blown. Highly recommend this great game.

    Obviously, this game is phenomenal. You know that. But you're still reading a review to make sure this edition is worth it. The art book is beautiful, and if you can grab it for the same price as the standalone game, don't hesitate, even if it's a bit of extra wait time for shipping.

    I don't think a review is necessary for buying Zelda game. They tend to be consistently very good. I am not too picky about graphics so if someone has the Wii U version and don't care much about DLCs, they could skip this version. However, for a Switch owner, this is a must buy.

    Legend of Zelda BOTW is absolutely the most in-depth Zelda game to come along in a long time. I'm several hours in, and with so much to do and such a large world to explore, I'm looking forward to playing this game for a very long time! Definitely a must-own title for the Switch!

    I have played every Zelda game that has come out. Over 30 years now, and this one is pretty amazing. It is a massive game, I do find myself wandering around forgetting where I was going and what my next mission was. So I just go fishing for a while. Great escape, tons of fun!

    It's really cool to see how Zelda has evolved. The last ones I played were Zelda I & II on the NES in the 80's. Comparatively, this is amazing. I have not gotten very far, but the depth of this game is astounding. This one's going to take a while.

    Growing up, I never got into the whole Zelda series. But I always respected the franchise. I believe anyone can right away pick up a controller and start their adventure. That's what makes this Zelda so good. This game deserves all the awards.

    I enjoyed myself for the 50 or so hours that it took to play through the game (would've preferred more dungeons instead of the shrines, but oh well). The bonus materials that come with the special edition are pretty nice too.

    Our family has been a fan of Zelda since the beginning. This game just blows the others away. I love how much of the worlds are needed to be explored while still keeping the key elements and history of the games embedded in the plot.

    Great game, lot of exploring to do. I liked getting this explorer's edition with the extras for the same cost as the game by itself.

    This is by far, hands down, the best zelda game I've ever played. And I've played them all. The entire game was so immersive. It kept me busy for months as I played a little here and there when I could.

    This is hands down the best game currently on Nintendo Switch. If you are thinking of buying it.....stop thinking and just get it. You will be happy you did. There is so much to do and see that you'll never get bored.

    The game immediately connects you to all the other zelda games, but feels different at the same time. Whike this doesnt show the realistic graphics we are getting used to seeing with newer games, it doesnt disappoint.

    My kids waited so long to get see another Zelda game! Too bad we had to buy another system to get it, BUT they actually love the switch game system, too! Nice job Nintendo! Now make some more games for it, LOL

    A lot of open world games claim, "you can go wherever you want; see that in the distance, you can get there," and usually there are some limitations. Breath of the Wild's only limitation is your imagination.

    This is the best Zelda game ever created. Especially modern wise. Having two objectives and an enormous variety of quests to do at your own pace makes this truly your own adventure. Play this game!!!!!!!!!!

    I haven’t done much with the game yet but so far it’s been awesome. This was the first game I bought after receiving a switch as a Christmas gift. Looking forward to see what the game has in store for me.

    Was going to buy the game anyways, and the booklet and map are a nice touch. The game itself needs no real review from me, except to say that it completely lives up to the hype. True artwork in gaming.
