Customer Ratings & Reviews

This game is great. The game play, world, story, and appearance are all great. You won't be disappointed.

Zelda has always been one of my favorite gaming series. Breath of the Wild has taken the Legend of Zelda to new heights. There are some many things to do and accomplish, so many hidden secrets and the depth of exploration is phenomenal. I have yet to finish it, but I always look forward to playing this game every time I pick up my Switch. This game definitely deserves all the Game of the Year awards it has received. Pick this game up as you won't regret it.

This is the same Zelda that we all know and love but now in an open world. You can explore everything right from the start and new gameplay features have bee added. You can now ook food and collect monster parts to raft items adding some elements of rpg. The game is gorgeous and the combat is better now. Recommenced for any fan and those who love a good adventure game.

This is hands down my favorite Zelda game. Nintendo took a big risk by making it open world but they managed to pull it off and the game has been praised by just about everyone because of it. I have already put in 100 hours and have not beaten the main story line. My wife got hooked by it, and so have my two girls. The only other action RPG that comes close to this would be The Witcher 3. That is how good the game is and it's the best compliment I can give it.

Got this for my son for his birthday. He played for a week straight until I was able to get a chance to play. I’m so addicted I want to buy my own switch so I don’t have to share with him. There’s no reason why this game didn’t get the game of the year award. Game play mechanics are smooth. Story is excellent. I haven’t been addicted to a Zelda or Nintendo game since the ocarina of time on the N64. Get a switch and get this game. Period.

I am somewhat conflicted on this game. On one hand, it looks amazing on the Switch, the map is massive, and I appreciate being able to go at my own pace. I like being able to search for shrines (health/stamina upgrades) and different armors that will help me take on the dungeons and bosses. On the other hand, the weapons constantly breaking is an annoyance. It does require some strategy to decide which weapon you want to use and possibly lose/break and which ones you want to hold on to as long as you can. Like past games, things get a little more complicated as you progress and the weapons get bigger and stronger. It is a deviation from the last version I played on the N64 but I've enjoyed it and so have the kids (10 and 7).

I love this game, by far the best Zelda game so far, and I’ve played most of them. I like the open world aspect, you can complete things in any order you want. The combat is fun, especially when you use the special abilities. The graphics a good for a switch game, I like the cell shaded quality. My favorite aspect are the shrine puzzles. I love puzzle games and there are hundreds in the game.

This is easily one of the best switch games i have ever played if you are a zelda fan this is a must have!

Love the graphics, the story and the challenges! Game is easy and challenging at times.

I have been chasing that OoT feeling since I was a kid, replaying every release of OoT and Majoras on whatever gen Nintendo console was out at the time. Breath of the Wild will break that cycle. All I want to say is that if you enjoy action rpg get this game. If you enjoy fantastical settings and the enjoyment of exploration and discovery that an open world provides get this game. If you enjoy rich stories, vibrant characters, and epic backdrops get this game.

Did you enjoy playing Zelda Ocarina of Time? If so, you're going to enjoy this game. I bought the Switch just to play this game. So far I've been playing for about 2 weeks and haven't even completed half of the things I need/want to do. The game is open world and you can spend literally hours and hours doing random stuff. I spent like 40 minutes yesterday trying to climb a mountain to get to a tower I needed to get to. Lets just say... This game is excellent!

I was blown away by this game. Open world games are ruined by repetitive missions and lifeless landscapes, but this wasn't an issue at all. This version of Hyrule was an absolute joy to explore. The story is rich, the combat and shrine puzzles are fun yet challenging, and there's enough going on to keep you occupied for months. This is an incredible game and I hope Nintendo can keep making more like this to support the Switch long term.

Certainly the best Zelda game ever. Arguably the best single player open world game ever! Hours and hours of fun honestly. I still haven't completed the game and am still finding all kinds of new interesting areas of the map. I have 120+ hours into the game at this point.

Huge open world with a fascinating story and great game play. Would recommend to anyone.

Even though this was released a couple of years ago, it is still one of the most beautiful games made for the switch. Zelda purists will knock it for a lack of depth as a dungeon crawler, but the decision to make it an open world game opting for a larger number of mini-puzzles as opposed to 5+ detailed dungeons has defined a truly amazing game with a huge world. Definitely pick this up!

It will eat your life, but real life is overrated anyway. It has all the expansiveness of an open world game like Skyrim, but keeps the Zelda-style temples and puzzles that make the series what fans know and love about it. I had a copy as soon as it came out for WiiU and just re-bought for Switch. It's worth it for the koroks alone!

The gushing reviews have been pouring in for a while, but this time you can believe the hype. Breath of the Wild delivers on the familiar aspects of the Zelda franchise with solid action and puzzling, and then updates it with a truly rich and expansive world for exploration. Stunning visuals, beautiful mosaic and moving story make this one of my favorite games ever.

This game caused a stir right when it came out and it still holds up very well. The open world aspect in a Zelda game has never been done before and the world is yours. Very fun and one of the best games out for the Switch! Switch owners have to buy and play this one

This is a Zelda Evolution. Could be the best one! The new open world has expanded the previous nature of progressing through a Zelda game. The game leaves it up to you to decide how you want to beat Zelda, explore and complete the game. This game DOES NOT hold you hand. It's a Survival Adventure Game that keeps you on the edge of your seat and requires planning to defeat enemies and puzzles. I love this game and see myself playing this game for a LONG TIME.

No seriously, I can't put it down. I can't stop gliding everywhere and beating monsters to collect their junk and upgrade my clothes at the Kakariko Great Fairy Fountain. It's so endlessly entertaining and beautiful. It's such an amazing leap forward for the Legend of Zelda. There are so many things to find, create, destroy, and do. Nintendo always delivers.
