Customer Ratings & Reviews

Breath of the Wild is an open world Zelda game. Go anywhere, do whatever you want. Climb trees or chop them down. Buy a house. Fight monsters. Cook some food. Tame horses. Harass chickens. Run away from chicken army. Explore. Find hidden koroks. Go mountain climbing. Parachute off things. Maybe eventually get around to saving the princess from that Ganon guy.

I've been an avid Zelda fan for 30 years and I haven't played a game that made me feel this way since Ocarina of Time was released in 98. I will leave it up to the professionals to put into words how great this game is. Anyone buying a Switch (AKA Zelda machine) this is a must buy IMO.

One of the best Zelda games I have ever played! Amazing open world!!

I’m new to the Zelda world, been playing for a week now, but I am enjoying this game thus far! Looking forward to finishing... some day :). I ordered this to be shipped for next day and I must say I was amazed. Love that feature! Looking forward to purchasing more games from Best Buy.

I've never been much of a Nintendo guy, and never having played a Zelda game before I was a little unsure of what I would find. But, after playing for a couple weeks (and I'm nowhere near done) I find it one of the best games I've ever played. I look forward to playing each day and there are so many challenges and things to explore and discover.

Ocarina of Time has been my favorite Zelda game since I first played. This new release brings back all the nostalgia and joy for the Zelda series. No wonder it won GOTY (game of the year)! I enjoy grabbing ingredients and coming up with recipes to help in battle and the side quests are so much fun. It'll keep you occupied and entertained for days!!

Not since Ocarina of Time have I felt the sense of adventure and discovery. The world is not just enormous, but filled with secrets and mystery. The graphics and art direction are outstanding, as is the subtle soundtrack. Without a doubt the best game available on the Wii U/Nintendo Switch. In fact, I'm inclined to say this is one of the best games ever made.

Only a few hours into the game at the time of writing this and i must say it’s a 10/10 games, it’s so interesting and fun to play, you get to locked into it you can’t stop playing, at the start it’s a bit boring but when u start actually playing in hyrule it’s so good.

My boyfriend really enjoyed this game I got for a gift to him! I also plan to buy him the new Zelda game that just came out as well! He said the music/ graphics and storyline are a 10/10

The reason I bought a Nintendo Switch is this game right here. I complete masterpiece. Hours, and hours of fun. Worth every single red cent. To be honest, I should be standing outside of Nintendo headquarters with a sign that says, "THANK YOU!" Such a great game. (=

Bought this game again to play in 2023 and it is still as amazing as I rember. I 100% recomend if you are looking to pick up a game for the switch.

Beautiful open world game! Countless hours of gameplay included.

Very good game. It is very fun to play. I recommend this game

Nintendo needed a fantastic game to launch the Switch, and they've got it. This may be one of the best Zelda games ever made, and considering its rich history, that is saying a lot. The graphics are great, but aren't the focus here. The gameplay is rich and engaging and the world just seems to be truly alive. You can lose hours in this game and never notice.

Fun game. Lots of hours of gameplay and open world

I really hate it when people hand out 5 stars like nothing. Really? Perfect? But when it comes to ZBOTW, it deserves it and more. You will get lost in the game and time will fly by. If you are playing on switch, GET THE PRO CONTROLLER (no de-syncing too) especially if you have bigger hands. This proves once again, GRAPHICS ARE NOTHING WITHOUT GREAT GAMEPLAY.

Amazing open world, no hand holding, just pure Zelda adventure fun!

The game is amazing. I never liked Zelda but it's hard to find a real problem with this one. It's very fun and it constantly changes plus it added a blood moon which revives enemies so it doesn't get boring. My only sore spot is you need to work for every bit of money in the game.

The graphics are beautiful. If you can see somewhere in the game, you can go there - and I want to go everywhere in this game! I like the puzzle shrines and the foraging of items to make meals for health. The game area is ginormous, it really helps to have a horse or those shrines to warp between. Overall, really love this game so far!

It's been reviewing pretty consistently at perfect-near perfect scores and this one won't be much different. The game is incredibly well-done and the massive world to explore is so fun it turns hours to minutes. Even if you haven't played previous Zelda titles this is an awesome game to get started on! If you have a switch you already know it's a must have!
