Customer Ratings & Reviews

I have only played part of this game, but I already think it could be one of the best Zelda games ever. The open world style really makes the experience seem so big. The map is massive and so far the puzzles have been great.

Long time Zelda fan here and I bought a Switch for this game. It's one of the best open world games ever made. I don't really care for the shrine grind vs dungeons but the world itself has such interactive gameplay I can forgive any faults this game has. A must own for any Switch owner.

i thought the 3ds link between worlds, would go down as one of the best for its complete open world that let you accomplish any dungeon/task in any order, this is that same concept TENFOLD with the added graphical upgrade, i wonder if this will be the new zelda formula! we can only hope!

As a long time Zelda fan this is my favorite game in the entire series. All of the Zelda lore and charm are here in full force and the huge open world is home to many sweeping fields and beautiful vistas. If you are an old fan or new to the series this is the perfect entry point. This is the first game I bought with my Switch and I expect it will last me a few hundred hours before I have to pull out my wallet again for another game. Of course there are many more games I want to get on Switch like Splatoon 2, ARMS, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, etc but this seemed like a must-have title to start out my collection with. Now I feel bad for my 3DS and all my unfinished games. I have barely picked up my 3DS since I got the Switch. Overall I highly recommend this game.

This game has endless things to do specially when combined with expansion pack. Even without expansion pack it will take a long time to complete main quests in game. At the begining it will be a little hard but as you build Link’s stamina and health game would be a lot easier.

I have been a hardcore LOZ fan since ocarina of time. The incorporation of the open world theme and mini temples (shrines) has taken this game to a whole new level. Between side quests and main quests, this game is non stop fun filled with enough puzzles and action to last a lifetime!

This game is beautiful. The graphics are breath-taking. Game play is immersive, open-world is amazing, and the controls are pretty straight-forward. It is a vast game with tons to do and completely engrossing. To me, easily the best Legend of Zelda game to date.

I guess it was worth the wait: this is the definitive Zelda game. Granted I have a few complaints about the difficulty level and amount of actual bosses, but you may never find every Korok seed in your lifetime! A must buy!

One of the most well made games I have ever played. The Legend of Zelda has not always been my favorite, but this game is phenomenal. The animation is unique, the story is more than I would expect from a typical Zelda game, and the gameplay is quite immersive.

This game is simply amazing. Tons to do and completely open world. The graphics are unparalleled and the fact that they have finally incorporated voice actors in the Zelda series is a serious step up. I have barely started the game and I agree with IGN when they give it a 10/10.

We purchased this game for my 12 year old son for Christmas and he's enjoyed playing every minute of it. For those that loved the old Zelda game from the 80s, this takes that concept but puts it in an open world with an Assassians Creed feel. Great family game!

From what I hear... So, here's the thing, I haven't played this one much yet, just the opening really. Seems like the controls are going to be good, and the story fantastic. I'm told that the game is wonderful, and I'm really looking forward to getting more into it.

To be fair I haven't played a Zelda since Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask... but still. The open world is impressive and the gameplay was amazing. The perfect reintroduction to Nintendo and video games in general for an old gamer who finally found some extra time and money to play.

This Zelda has been the best I've played in a long time. After being sorely disappointed by Skyward Sword, and then waiting through delay after delay for this one, it's refreshing to see Nintendo put out something so detailed. It's definitely worth the wait. The attention to detail in this game is phenomenal--it's challenging at times and forces you to be creative in your puzzle solving and in your combat strategies. While the graphics aren't on par with the realism of some of the newer PS4 or X1 games, Nintendo has gone with an aesthetically pleasing artistic style and many of the views are stunning. Both me and my girlfriend have put more than 100 hours into this game and still get sucked into it after playing for a few moments, even after beating the final boss.

Been playing Zelda since the gold cartridge on NES, been meaning to play Botw since it came out, finally will get to journey into Hyrule again. Looking forward to the adventure.

If you have a Switch, you have this game. If you don't have this game, you need to get this game. This Zelda game is one of the best in the entire series. Changing up the standard Zelda formula paid off for Nintendo - big time. Not only is the gameplay incredible, and not only are the puzzles intricate and just the right level of challenging, but the level of detail that has gone into this game is staggering. Every nook and cranny, every line of dialogue, every weapon, and every side quest - everything in the game has been carefully crafted so as to make the world feel alive and immense. If you play through the game and skip 80% of the material, sticking to the main quest and not dabbling in side missions, you're going to have a great time. If you spend your time searching out hidden easter eggs and explore every corner of the map, you're going to have a great time. If you love Zelda games, get this. It's worth every rupee.

The design and execution is breathtaking. The storytelling is involved and consistent. One of the best games ever. It is a world big enough to lose yourself in for a long time. There is no finishing this in a weekend. More than worth the money,

Breath of the Wild doesn't hold your hand or baby the player. It's an open-world adventure game that is enormous with plenty to find and do. Just be sure to carry plenty of weapons and shields. You'll break them. A lot.

Having grown up playing the original Zelda game in the NES, I had high hopes for this new Zelda game. The game did not disappoint. I love the new art style that was used for this game. It's not realistic but it does not need to be as this is a fantasy game. The game is huge! I have been playing since March 3rd when it first came out and I think I'm only about 70 - 75% complete. I love that the game does not hold your hand, you're basically on your own to do as you please once you exit the initial cave. You can attempt to go straight to Gannon from the beginning or you can explore and complete shrines and side quests to prepare for the final battle with Gannon. This game is definitely worth getting if you're an old Zelda fan or if you're a fantasy RPG fan as well.

Very fun game and interesting story. I don't like a lot of single player games but this ranks one of the best for me. It is my second Zelda game and it is a great release title. Hours of play and fun without the leveling system that most games use to increase character abilities.
