What a large world! I played this a little skeptical that this might just be a "kid's game", but boy could I ever have been wrong. A bit on the easy side at the beginning, but I suppose that is to get us indoctrinated to the controls. This is a fantastic, and very LARGE game...I'm not even close to finishing yet, but am really enjoying playing.

This game is mass, immersive, and completely jaw dropping let beautiful. The open world approach puts past attempts to shame and make it feel like a literal adventure not a guided tour. Experience what you want skipnwhat you don't and have fun doing it and discovering all the worlds hidden secrets. This game alone is worth getting the switch for.

I have never been a Zelda fan. I held off a while before finally giving in and purchasing BOTW. Wish I would've gotten it sooner! It's fun, the game looks great, and there's so much to do. I personally like running around to harvest items and cook food with the occasional fight. Definitely won't be disappointed in this purchase!

Excellent game. It feels like one of the rare instances that an adventure game actually feels like an adventure. There is such an incredible lack of guidance and getting to the top of a tower and being able to craft your own little mini-objectives sets a great gameplay flow.

My son has had this game for a year. He beat it within a few months but continues to go back to it and has purchased (with his own money) books on lore and secrets to continue playing it. I like that it is a clean-ish game that kids can play (if you don't mind cartoon violence) and enjoy for a very long time.

This game combines essence of a game like Skyrim with the charm of a Zelda game and in the process becomes something much more than either. One of the best, if not the best, open world games I've played. Similarly the best Zelda (at least 3D) game I've played. If you're a fan of either, perhaps even a fan of neither, this game just works so well.

Beautiful game filled with challenging obstacles. A must have.

I never really played the previous Zelda game so I knew nothing about the story line. But BoTW is a game changer, it introduces you to Legend of Zelda story and gives alot of information of the previous ones. This game is an absolute must have. If you are wondering if you should get it. DONT! Just buy it and thank me later

This is the best game of all time and if you don't buy it for your Switch then you might as well not even play games. You will spend over 100 hours playing this game. Buy it for your kids if they don't have it already. Fun for all ages.

I bought this game along with my Switch as something to do on a long commute. So far I figure I have to be at least 100 hours in, and have yet to bother playing anything else. It has the same "ooh shiny" quality as Skyrim where you end up spending so much time just exploring around that you never have time to finish the story.

This game is awesome. The open world looks amazing and I find myself watching my son play it the whole time he plays. I do have to say that the controls are different coming from an Xbox one but my son won't let me change it. It looks better on the switch screen but still looks great on a 65" 4K as well. Don't think about getting it just get it.

As a gamer, I'm ashamed that I've never played a Zelda game before. This one brings back all of the fun that I had from playing WoW and Diablo 3, which was the questing, the missions, and the quests. The detail and some of the hidden items and tasks in there are incredible. For the fun of the game, this game is almost worth the switch by itself.

This game is absolutely incredible! The open world is vast and nothing is off limits. I'm quite a few hours into this game and know I haven't even scratched the surface. It is one of the harder Zelda games, but completely worth it. I would recommend this game to everyone!

Great game! Easy to play and the graphics are wonderful!

The graphics are absolutely stunning! This made a great gift for someone who loves action packed games. My boyfriend is not a huge Zelda fan, however with this game he was fully immersed into the Zelda-verse. I highly recommend for anyone looking for a great game with freeplay, with great graphics.

This game on its own was worth buying the switch. It brings back memories from the N64 days but obviously with a lot better graphics! The game itself is huge so it'll take a while to finish. Before the first update there was some lag at times but that's resolved too now.:

My grandson has a Nintendo Switch. So for his birthday, I bought him The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild since I enjoyed playing the original game. I watch him play and finally, I couldn't take any longer, I took over an played for the next 2 hours. All those memories came rushing back and I had an incredible evening.

This game is jam packed with content and it feels like your never done having fun even after you beat the game. It's stellar with its appearance, the game play is really fun, and everything about it is so worth your $60, it definitely has more than 200 hours of play time.

Lots of new things for the Zelda series. Some fans of the old 3D Zelda games might not like the changes, but you owe it to yourself to give the new open world style a chance. Especially if you enjoy other open world games.

Breath of the Wild is an excellent game and a must have for any Zelda fan. I have just completed the first temple (still playing...) but so far I love the game. The mechanics, the options, but must of it, the huge world; I can pass several hours exploring the surroundings. It is just amazing how much effort was invested in developing this game.
