Customer Ratings & Reviews

It's unmistakably Zelda after a little bit of play. The music, the action, and the storyline are familiar and translate well from past iterations to the somewhat cell-shaded 3D graphic look of BotW. The game can be a little "grindy" at times with repetitive tasks that are somewhat time-consuming, but the beauty, appropriate difficulty level, immersive gameplay, and sheer size of the map make this a very worthwhile purchase and will carry Switch sales for some time to come.

Amazing. That's all I can say. Really really good game and a system seller for sure. The few criticisms I have do not even come close to outweighing the good in the game but when you have the switch plugged in, there are a fair amount of times that the frame rate drops, a lot. Also, the dungeons are cool but they are super short and there is really only 4 of them. I don't count the shrines as dungeons. I miss the old long dungeons. Also, the final boss is way too easy.

I've been waiting for this game for a long time and certainly does not disappoint. There's a reason this is the highest rated game of all time. The world is humongous and will take weeks/months to explore. There is no shortage of things to do. This game drastically changes the formula for zelda games with brand new set of controls. While I do love this game, I do not recommend a beginner game starting with this as they may find it very difficult. However, if you have at least some gaming experience, I would definitely recommend getting this game, especially if you love exploration.

Awesome! My kids love to play it and challenge each other!

Would definitely recommend this to fans and newcomers alike. One of the best games in the series with hours upon hours of content and a massive world to explore.

It is Zelda best games from the 80s are always great love this game. We need more great Zelda games like this.

This game departs significantly from the traditional Zelda formula, but it is nonetheless an absolutely fantastic an open-world adventure. It is not my favorite Zelda game (I still like the traditional format), but it is definitely one of my favorite open-world games and has great replay value. The flexibility and seemingly endless possibilities for creativity and play style make this a unique addition to the Zelda library and a must-have for any fan of the genre.

I’m amazed this game runs on the Switch at all, let alone so well! BotW is such a beautiful, expansive, well-written game that has given me dozens of hours of fun so far. It’s challenging, but not TOO challenging in my opinion… and the learning curve is decent! I’ve almost completed the main storyline in 60 hours with time spent wandering as well, which you’ll want to do — there’s so much to discover and it’s so much fun doing so! Just make sure you get the climbing gear and complete shrines to upgrade your stamina as well as your health capacities.

This is a must own if you are a fan of the Zelda series. The game has a ton of content and will keep you busy for hours upon hours.

The controls are really great, the story is cool. I haven't got real far, but it's definitely going to be enjoyable to play for hours and hours

This is by far one of the best games to come out in the last few years. Vast open world, gorgeous, and never boring. Highly recommended!

This is essentially the same as the WiiU version, but the load times are faster and the graphics are noticeably crisper. A wonderful open-world adventure!

I love zelda and this one is so beautifully made! the story is fun and intriguing, I couldn’t stop playing for HOURSSSS

What a great game. The graphics are amazing and the open world platform is great! The story is thoroughly enjoyable.

Full open world Zelda. What more can you expect than absolute perfection. Get a horse. Keep a horse. Arrows are clutch. Weapons should last longer. Memories yo.

It is the best game in the past decade, and there are never too many words to praise the game. However, it is worth noticing that the standard edition is NOT a complete game at all. The so-called "DLC" is in fact the content separated from a complete game and sell twice. For those who want a full game experience and stick to physical editions, please buy the JP version cartridge with DLCs included from PlayAsis or Amazon.

I was late to this game and boy have I been missing out. The hype for BOTW is accurate. Gameplay is what you would expect from a Nintendo produced produce. Tight, intuitive and minute by minute fun to be had. Graphics are incredible considering how many years ago this was released. Other open world games may have more details but this has an atmosphere and heart (hearts?) that can’t be matched. It’s family friendly if you have kiddos.

this little gandu can get u hooked on the story line and the free open world. lots of puzzles and some of the tunes in the sound track bring back memories !

I bought this along with my switch, and this game alone is worth the purchase. The game is so expansive. There is so much to do that it made the $48 purchase stretch very far. I've spent countless hours on this game not progressing through the storyline, but still having fun. If you're a gamer in a budget and need a game that CAN last you a long time if you opt to do every side quest, this game could take you a while until more money comes to get other games.

The game is beautiful and there are plenty of things to do. Can get a little repetitive at times but overall it is worth a play through.
