This is easily one of the best switch games i have ever played if you are a zelda fan this is a must have!

Awesome game!huge world! Great story! Anyone could get in to it

I have played every Zelda since the original on the NES and I can say confidently that this is the best in the franchise. I have been playing for well over 150 hours and I still find new things! The art is beautiful, the story is powerful, and the gameplay is king. This is easily my favorite game of 2017 and probably in my top 5 games ever!

BOTW has so much content and "replay" value. I put replay in quotes because even if you finish the main storyline, there is so much you can do and you can play it however you want. Plus, the graphics are beautiful, and I never get tired of exploring the map. Definitely worth every penny!

This is an absolutely incredible game. The areas are so vast, bigger than skyrim. Great game play innovative story line. The best of the Zelda series to date. Plus expansion packs coming!!! This is a must have title for the Switch. Can't say enough good things about this game!!!

This game has exceeded my every expectation. I was not a huge fan of Twilight Princess or Skyward Sword so I was worried that this would be more of the Same. I couldn't have been more wrong. The sense of exploration is amazing. And it's not just an empty world, there are things to collect and discover along the way. I can't recommend this game enough!

This is an excellent game. The gameplay mechanics are superb and the world is filled with more to see and do than we've ever seen in a Zelda game. It's true that this game does make a number of departures from the Zelda franchise that disappointed me...Breakable weapons, in particular, are a frustrating addition. But the game is excellent overall.

Fun to play. New to saga, still have a lot to learn. Good game for the committed. It takes a hour or so to understand the storyline and controls. Animation's and tutorials move a bit slow

The legend of zelda a does not leave you dissapointed the game keeps you wondering and interested in the story right from the start. There is no shortage of places to explore enemy to kill and treasures to find. The map is HUGE and yet it oozes rich content from coast to coast.

I really like this game, and can easily recommend it to others. I know many other games go over its strengths such as the graphics, open word exploration, call back to the earliest title, and more. And, while I agree with most of the praise, I do not care for how it asks for so much patience from the gamer. Whether it is traveling on foot to a land far away, searching for a really well hidden shrine, cooking food on dish at a time, or painfully, slowly climbing up mountains (Just to be knocked off half way up by rain), this game demands quite a bit of patience on your part. While not a deal breaker, this type of stuff stresses me out, rather than relaxing me or challenging me in meaningful way. Still,it is fun and you should not miss this if you own a Switch.

Breath of the Wild is by far one of the best games I have ever played, with beautiful art, amazing music, and a stunning world with so much to explore you could spend hours in just one town and keep discovering new aspects of it. Combining direct combat, strategy and puzzles, this game has a balance which can suit numerous gaming styles.

TLDR Buy the game and get a battery backup if you plan to play the game on the go. I really enjoy this game. It is different than any previous Zelda game and at first I was hesitant. As time went on I really began to enjoy the game and starting becoming immersed in the world. After an hour or so through the tutorial area you are given free reign to go wherever you want. As time went on I began to really enjoy the world and going around doing things. As a fan of Zelda from the classic NES days I can say that this is a great change for the series. It takes a few hours, but after that time you begin to find yourself wanting to try out new things and do things previously you never could in old Zelda games. This game has lots of item you can invest in it and I really enjoy it. The only things about the game that is frustrating has to do with the switch itself. I found myself not quite used to the two trigger buttons and had to get used to them with my sausage fingers. The other is that this game sucks the living life out of the switch. Even plugged into a portable battery the game slowly dies. I play this game when I fly for my job and have to plug it in the battery ASAP so it drains the battery slower.

I mean come on. It’s a game altering version of Hyrule and Link that has changed how some people view Legend of Zelda. Is it my favorite? Far from. But it’s still so fun and addicting that you’ll want to keep coming back.

This is the best Zelda game so far. Nintendo out did themselves with this one. The gameplay and graphics are beautiful. You will have hours of fun exploring the huge open world, doing quests and capturing over 100 shrines. The hardest part about this game is putting down the controller. I spent 10 hours straight playing this on my last day off.

Runs at a smooth 60fps on Switch 2 with no noticeable slow down in over 30hours of play time Well worth the Switch 2 upgrade

My boyfriend absolutely loves this game. He plays it all day. The graphics in this game are very beautiful and the storyline is great. There is always something to explore and there are lots of small surprises built within the game as well.

I had never played a Zelda game, but I heard lots of great things about Breath of the Wild so I bought it when I got my Switch (with MK8, of course). This game's open world is totally immersive, the story is engaging, and the game mechanics are ever-evolving to enhanced abilities. It's hands down one of the best games I've played in a long while.

This is Nintendo's stab (pun intended) at an open world game. You can do pretty much anything you want, go anywhere you want, and use any tools you have at your disposal to explore the world. The world is the main character of the game. There is something to discover in every nook and cranny. This game will occupy you for many hours.

Every review you have ever read about this game is true. From the graphics to the music to the storyline this game is an unbelievable experience. There is exploration, puzzle solving, melee and ranged combat, overwhelming odds to overcome, and a whole new style of dungeon. Truly deserving of the term "Masterpiece". Add it to your collection today.

I love that there is finally an open world Zelda game! This game is fantastic. One thing I missed was the overall Zelda feeling of the game, though. There are no heart pieces to obtain, are no real dungeons to fight, etc. Very strange to have to cook food to regain hearts and having weapons that break. Overall, though, I really did enjoy the game.
