This game is by far the best thing to come out of Nintendo for a long LONG time. They have essentially gone back to the roots of what Zelda was meant to be- a game all about exploration, your drive to quest, and the freedom to approach a scenario however you think best! If I had to describe it, it's like the best parts of an Elder Scrolls game combined with Zelda- open world, expanse terrain to explore, resource management and collecting, and more importantly, plenty of adversity and challenges to keep you hooked!!

If your looking for a switch game that actually keeps you coming back for more this is your game. Also if you haven't played the new sequel Tears of the Fallen kingdom you will be spoiled with 2 great games to play without the long wait that happened to most fans

Easily the best Zelda game I have ever played. So many different ways to solve puzzles, combat enemies, traverse terrain. Over 300 weapons, tons of outfits with set bonuses, crafting of items and so much more.
If you are an RPG fan and love a good open world this is for you. The sheer amount of side quests alone will leave you flabbergasted as to how long it will take to fully complete it since it offers multiple different endings.
As the great Phillip J Fry. Put it so eloquently, "Shut up and take my money!!"

I'll keep this one short and sweet. Breath of the Wild is a masterpiece, coming from someone who hasn't cared for any Zelda games (aside from Windwaker) since a Link to the Past on SNES. It breaks away from the mundane formula of all the other 3D Zelda's. This game is like if Nintendo had a baby with The Witcher 3 and Far Cry. Huge open world with an INSANE amount to do, this game can literally keep you playing for a year if you are limited on time. Don't even think about this one, just buy it and don't look back.

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is simply an astounding game. Very few games, in the history of gaming, have the ability to create an experience such as the one BotW has crafted. There is magic here that will likely go down as one of the best games of all time.
Not since OoT has a game come out that will likely drive the way video games in general are created, and after BotW, there is no looking back.

I've been playing Zelda since the first one came out for the NES. This is an evolution of that game, giving you just what you need and leaves the rest up to you. This is a grand, open world adventure that let's you decide how you will play. There's no straight path to the end. You can either explore the vast world or go straight to Gannon if you feel up to it. The world is filled with interesting sights, characters and quests. If you managed to get a Nintendo Switch, this is the only game you'll need for a while.

Breath of the Wild is one of the best games I have ever played, period. I've been gaming since the early 90's and have played my fair share of games, this one ranks up near the top. While it will make the experience better, you don't necessarily need to have played previous Zelda games.

This game is incredible! If open world, do what you want when you want, is what you like, this game will definitely be one to grab. It’s not difficult to catch on to the controls and mechanics are super friendly. This is a game that you spend hours on and not know main story line if you choose to.
I was hesitant because I thought it would be too in depth as I haven’t played a game like this for years. Boy was I wrong!

Wow. This game is easily an absolute essential for the Nintendo Switch. Breaking free from the area scrolling mechanic of many previous LoZ games, this game introduces such a depth and breadth of environment that you can spend countless hours exploring and discovering and still always be learning new ways to play the game. As an avid LoZ enthusiast, I embrace the new direction this game is taking and would definitely recommend this game to series veterans and those that would like to begin.

So far this is the only reason for me buying a Nintendo Switch. Game is very addictive with plenty to do besides the main story quests. My only gripe are the breakable weapons. It is very frustrating and annoying when you're in the middle of a fight and bam there goes your weapon. Besides that, the game is an instant classic. Looking back, I should of probably bough it on Wii U and held of on buying a switch.

This has quickly become my favorite game! There is so much to explore and things to do. Most of it you figure out on your own. I love asking myself if this crazy thing can work within the game mechanics and the game never ceases to surprise me when it does. I love that I can take this with me anywhere I go. This is a must have for any gamer and personally for me is going down as the greatest launch title for any system. The next PS and Xbox really need to step up their game when it comes to launch titles.
