Customer Ratings & Reviews

Note: review based on first impression on first week owning. (10hours play). I bought this because my kids are into Nintendo.I. thought they may like Zelda like I did as a kid.( I prefer PlayStation ) Anyways, the game is ok in that it allows you to wander anywhere you want much like many of the games today.( Batman, lord of the rings, fallout) I think the most frustrating part of this game is that you continually have to replace your weapons because they break. I find this kind of annoying. (The constant short life and weapon replacement). It causes you to continually switch between screens to finish a simple raid on a camp of foes. I think they should have adapted a repair technique much like fallout games if they were going to have weapon breakdown. It Slows down your actual in game play time and causes a lot of running and return attacks. (Maybe there is a technique you can cook up to help weapons last longer???) Still annoying and why I gave it 4 stars. Games ok for short term ,last resort ,entertainment. (For an adventure die hard.). They do have some cool features in it.

Wow - huge open world; so much to explore. It's so easy just to wander around and find new stuff - easy to lose track of time.

Such a fun game and so much to do and explore. Monsters are tough to kill but I think I may be moving through regions too quickly....

Do I even really have to elaborate on the title? Breath of the Wild is Zelda, reimagined for the modern age. It works exceptionally well on Switch, and is great docked or in portable mode. The only game that I personally think rivals BOTW on Switch is Xenoblade Chronicles 2, which I also own. Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate comes close, as well. As you know, close isn't exactly there. If you pick up a Switch, then you absolutely must pick-up BOTW too. If you get no other game, get BOTW.

Exploration at its finest. Everything I love in a video game. Challenging, fun, interesting.........the world is alive and it sucks you in.

I think this is a great ode to past Zeldas and a great new story of it's own. The gameplay is amazing and the story is really fun.

Excellent open world zelda game! Still playing it.. so much to do, you will NOT be disappointed!

What can I say about this game that has not been said already. It's an open world zelda game with every aspect of it crafted to perfection!

The graphics are amazing, the story is great, lots of things to do. You can make this game last weeks if you want an extensive game.

I'm not really a Zelda fan...I've played them but never really finished a game since Ocarina on the 64... It's an open world Zelda game like I've never seen before. I have ADD when I play...I set a destination and I end up cutting grass for 20 minutes and swimming and fishing...and I forget where I'm supposed to be. The side missions are somewhat fun. It's like 80% side missions. So game play is so close to endless.

Zelda Breath of the Wild is an extremely well-thought out and fun-filled game. Unfortunately, I have had little experience with previous Zelda games, but as a newcomer, this game is like nothing I have played in years. The story-line is good, side quests are engaging, and there is enough adventure and challenges from additional shrines, korok seed puzzles, etc. to keep you entertained for hundreds of hours. Overall I would say Nintendo knocked this one out of the park, and would be surprised if this does not win Game of the Year.

My daughter loves this game. It’s so much fun and the graphics are terrific.

Great game with lots to explore. Very open and you can do objectives in whatever order you choose. Logic puzzles are still fun.

Zelda BOTW is such a beautiful game. Amazing vista and such a fun adventure. Worth the play for sure

Was bought as a gift for grandson, but had to return because he just got one as a graduation present. Grandson loves Zelda all he wants to do is play Zelda. I love watching him play he gets so excited.

Not much to say that hasn't been said by the entirety of the internet. This and Mario are most likely the reason you bought a Switch!

Legen of Zelda is one of the best switch games. The story is great and the gameplay is superb.

Takes alot of time and patience. Amazing but. Have yet to finish. Its alot harder than previous Zelda's but jist as amazing

They finally got the open world exploration aspect of the Zelda franchise right. Great exploration aspect as well as a linear story line.

I have been playing Zelda since the 80s was the first game I ever bought for the Nintendo and I by everyone that comes out
