Customer Ratings & Reviews

This game simply doesn't play like a typical launch title. That can probably be owed to the fact that it was co-developed for the now defunct Wii U. Still, as good as this is on the Wii U, the fact that it's every bit as good, but also completely portable, makes it the version to have (if you can get a Switch, of course).

Best game I have played in a long time. Open world.

I bought a Switch just so I could play Breath of the Wild, and the game is even better than I expected. I've replayed it multiple times over the past year and it hasn't lost an ounce of the magic each time. So few games have such great replayability, and BOTW has it in spades. I definitely recommend the DLC packs if you're a fan - they just extend the gameplay even more.

As a child I played all the zelda but Ocarina of Time literally changed my video game expectations. I bought a switch and Breath of the Wild in Hope's that at the age of 30, I could feel that way again....And I did....TIMES 10! This game is simply amazing. Brought me back to when I was 8 or 9.

Really fun and deep game. Story is cool. Gameplay is a lot of fun

This game is amazing Some things may feel repetitive but it’s an adventure

This is one of the greatest games I've ever played!

Great product will recommend to friends and family

Very good game, strongly recommend this game to anyone !

Great Story! Great first game to get for your Switch.

Amazing open world RPG set in the Zelda universe. Great story and game mechanics.

First Zelda game I have played since Ocarina of Time and Majoras Mask. I was worried it wouldn’t live up to how amazing those games were, but it ended up being awesome. So much to do. I have over 80 hours logged into the game and have not even finished half of what is available. I feel like I could easily play another 40 hours before starting over and doing it all again.

This game is the reason I bought a switch, and I am not in the least bit disappointed. It is mysterious and rugged like the first one for classic NES, yet adds awesome things like crafting and climbing to the gameplay. Clean and pretty but not over the top graphics make it feel fun and immersive but not too grown up. Combat is smooth like always. Gameplay map is huge and varied. Will not disappoint.

This game is one that really leaves me conflicted- perhaps I am at a biased disadvantage because I have minimal experience with Zelda titles prior to this. But as an avid gamer, I can speak from my experience with it on that front. The game is absolutely beautiful- a true masterpiece visually and story-wise. I can only imagine how many heart-strings this pulls on for Zelda fanatics, but without that appeal and tie from me all I can see it for is the mechanics and visuals. The game became very frustrating for me controls wise, with very little guidance or aid from the game itself it reminded me a LOT of Darksouls in the sense that you're probably gonna be reloading saves a LOT for the first quarter of the game. I'd recommend this game, but specifically for those with a history in the Zelda franchise and people older than 14 or so.

Haven't beat the game, if i had to guess im not even half way through the story, and im already at 50 hours of gameplay. everything about the game BUT performance is really incredible. i typically dont care for zelda games, this is something different. just go into the game with as little information as possible, let the sense of adventure and mystery overcome you.

This is a deviation from typically linear Zelda titles. You are rewarded around every turn for exploration. The music is subtle but swells depending on whats going on and you feel completely in control of whatever you want to do while being rewarded for poking around. If i were to summarize it I guess I would say Skyrim-lite mixed with the magic of Nintendo's touch. A must-own for the Switch!

Great game on a great gaming system. The Switch is awesome and Zelda is the GOAT!

As one may already know, this game is fantastic! Once you get started the world of Zelda is your playground and battleground. Each play-through is different even if you play in the same order twice as there is so much to catch your eye. The only thing that I hope that the Zelda team improves in the next game is the diversity of enemies. One should know that the enemy variants in the game are sort of lacking from the usual Zelda games. There are only a handful and they try to switch it up with strength classes and elemental variants but, all-in-all I more often thought to myself, "Haven't I already killed you before?" Whenever I had killed the same enemy for the 98493rd time in a row. Other tan that the game is wonderful and I can't wait to see what the future installments will hold.

Love, love, love this game. We bought the Game book and my husband and I spent hours and hours and hours playing this. It’s a little frustrating in the beginning because there aren’t many directions and you have to learn a lot on your own as you go, but there is so much to do and a really great story. Can’t recommend enough!

Best game on the switch hands down! Provides hours and hours of content!
