Customer Ratings & Reviews

There's no hand-holding in this game and you just jump right in. The core of the game is exploring and adventuring, and you'd probably find yourself spending hours just roaming around and enjoying the scenery. Play-style is very flexible, quests can be done whenever, and the fun-factor is boundless. This game can easily take a couple hundred hours to "beat." Everyone I've shown Zelda to ended up buying a Switch just for Zelda.

It's an open world game which means you can explore anywhere the map allows. There's not really a set path to follow like other Zelda games. You can do things in the order you want to do them in. You can climb as high on the mountains as you want. You can choose to just hunt for sapphires and pick mushrooms all day to sell at the market. I'd give this game 10+ stars if I could. It's crazy addicting so make sure when you start it, you have a few days off from work. This is my favorite Legend of Zelda installment so far.

I'm late to the Breath of the Wild party but this game is fantastic!!! The graphics and gameplay are amazing. Beautiful game with a beautiful atmosphere. The combat is challenging with a diverse amount of weapons/shields/armor/accessories you can switch up your play style at any time. The open world exploration is my favorite thing about this game. A must have for Switch owners!

Awesome Game. This was actually the first game i really wanted to play, and was impressed when i finally got to play it.

This is one of the best Zelda games ever made. The only issue I have with the game is that there aren't traditional dungeons. The other issue I have with the game is that weapons break after enough use which really isn't that bad. Despite those issues it's still an amazing game and what Nintendo did with the open world is amazing it truely feels alive.

I can honestly say this is this best open world adventure game. You start off by waking up from a deep sleep for 100yrs after hyrule was taken over. No clothes or equipment. The word is massive with so many things to discover and enjoy over time. Yes there is fps dip but barely and it's called updates via internet. Tablet mode does play slightly better than dock mode. Other than that. I love my switch more than any console as well as this game. And I have all systems. So not a Nintendo "fanboy" but definitely loving them again.

While I'm definitely not finished with it just yet, even after only going through one "proper" dungeon, it's very clear that this is one of the greatest video games ever made. 40 hours in and I have zero desire to even progress in the story. And that's not a knock on the story, which is great and compelling, it's just that running and gliding around Hyrule is just too much fun. 5/5 10/10 100/100 Please check out www.timewearegiven.com for travel reviews of New Zealand Lord of the Ring locations (and hopefully more!).

Well so far, I love the graphics, the open world concept, and the mechanics. I played open world concept games in the past, but holy *bleep*, this is the most open world game I’ve ever played. Unlike other games where it is, but the main story takes you from point A to point B, this one, you truly create your own path. My only gripe, I wish it was clear how to defeat more bigger, cumbersome enemies, but at least you can run away from em.

I was in the fence about getting a Switch period.. however, I’m super glad I did! It’s so portable and Zelda is incredible on it. The world of Zelda is completely open and it’s up to you to explore and find loot. It’s reminiscent of Ocarina of time. I can happily say... I’m addicted! Since purchase, I’ve probably played it 10+ hours and BARELY scratched the surface of the game... apparently folks have played 100+ hours. Wow! I’d definitely recommend getting this game when first purchasing your switch!

This is the main game for the Switch as most people know by now, but that doesn't mean to sell this game short. This is THE game to play this year and I couldn't recommend it more. No other game has instilled such a true sense of rewarding exploration like BotW. Organically using the mechanics and tools at your disposal to overcome numerous obstacles is a blast. The new approach to Zelda with no true dungeons and freedom to go wherever you want after the intiial starting area is an amazing feeling. Play this game!

With a few changes to classic Link. He can now jump and climb the sides of mountains. It doesn't take away from the experience at all. This still feels like a Zelda game. It's gorgeous on both the tv and on the handheld system. Sure, the quality is a little less on the handheld, but it's still beautiful. The game is open world and so much to discover. Even when you think you've seen it all, there's something else.

I am a huge Zelda fan but I’m not usually into open world games. This is one world that is definitely worth exploring. It is very engaging because I’m constantly finding new loot and challenges. One thing I really like is the “pick up and play” aspect of the design. I can play for 15 minutes and beat a shrine or 2 hours and complete a long quest. I can save any time and pick back up where I left off. I will be playing this for a while because there is so much to do and it is not an easy game.

Love this game! So many adventures and different levels of skill needed. Provides hours of entertainment. Great visual quality and brings back fun memories of playing on various Nintendo softwares with my dad growing up. I bought this for myself (female, 35 yrs old) and this is “my” game in the house lol my kids sit and watch me play while yelling out tips. It’s really fun!

So much to do in this game. And it being open world was even more fun. Great story and characters.

I really like this game challenging makes you use your head to figure things out complicated sometimes but just go to Google to help my way through

The best game I’ve ever played since my childhood, you need to buy it.
