Customer Ratings & Reviews

I've loved Zelda (except #2) since Legend of Zelda. This game is no exception. It's open world, which I love. The graphics are fantastic. I haven't gotten very far, but what I've seen so far still makes me recommend this highly.

Now on release the switch does not have many games, but the ones they do have are a lot of fun. This Zelda game is far and away the only reason you need to buy the console. It's just amazing. The open world is so cool. The enimies are inventive and game play is awesome

First, the game came super fast. It is challenging and more open-ended than previous Zelda games I have played. There is an element to using your intuition and interacting with the environment which is reminiscent of Minecraft and GTA. In fact, I would say that besides the old SNES Zelda, this one feels the most open-ended. The weapon system is a bit more easy to handle than previous Zelda games to me. Secondly, I like this Zelda a bit more than the old N64 Ocarina of Time and a Link to The Past. I was surprised that at my age a game like this keeps me engaged enough to keep playing. Nintendo did a great job on this one! The only complaint about the game so far is the angle-of-view. It can be a little tedious adjusting the angle of view all of the time.

Excellent game. Game very fun. I like it so much...

This version of Zelda is the best yet, and I've been around for them all. The graphics aren't stellar compared to games on other systems, but with the Switch's limitations I think they are pretty great. Game play is good, even my 6 year old can play it as long as I read and give him hints as to where to go next. The puzzles are challenging but fun. The best part is you decide how much or little you play. I'm pretty positive you can beat the whole game in a matter of hours, but the world is open to explore and you could spend much more time exploring and discovering aspects that aren't vital to beating the game. I don't necessarily care for the food creation aspect of the game, but someone else might find it fun to discover foods by trying out combinations of found items. My son loves the customization feature and has already logged lots of time just changing Link's clothes and their colors. Overall a definite 10!

Love this game. Nostalgia mixed with new adventure.

Zelda BOTW is an absolutely amazing game that never ceases to be tons of fun to play. I have played for dozens of hours and feel like I have barely scratched the surface of this world. Highest recommendation.

Don't hesitate just buy it! Breath of the Wild is a breath of fresh air for the Legend of Zelda series. Open world, tweaked gameplay, beautiful graphics, thousands of things to do everywhere you turn. This is a must own game for Switch and Wii U owners!

This game is worth buying the switch if you are on the fence. I was hesitant to buy the console until I played this game first hand and it makes it all worth it. This game is very well done with endless quests and things to do that will keep you busy for a long time, maybe the better part of a year if you play it often. Great graphics and game mechanics and it works brilliantly with the pro controller. I mostly only play this game in docked mode or using the kickstand with it propped up on a table using the pro controller. Because of the battle scenes using a few complicated "get-used-to" controls, it can be hard to efficiently play this game in handheld but it looks better on a tv anyways. If you know someone who does not have a switch, I can assure you this game is a beast on the switch and you should gift it to them. Phenomenal game.

Daughter loves the game and has been playing for hours. The graphics are great and great storyline. Would buy again. Now I am going to have to get Zelda 2 when it comes out very soon.

SUCH A GOOD GAME Ok this game is amazing It’s does such a good job at being a open world rpg / what ever it is If you grind you might find the final boss too easy But other than that it a good game

A must have for both Zelda fans and adventure game fans alike. A departure from what has become some of the series staples, it offers a true open world where you can just explore and find new things all the time. Don't get a guide until you've done a little exploring.

What can I say about this game that others haven't already? A++, a staple of owning a switch. I've no idea anything about Zelda other than this and I still adore it.

What can I say except I absolutely loved this game. If you've been looking for a good entry into the franchise. Definitely recommend.

Simple can't get enough of this game. This game is one of those that you can't stop playing, not even for a sec. So much to do in this new Zelda game its unbelievable. I highly recommend anyone to BUY THIS!!

The best game available on the Switch! It's a little harder than previous Zelda games, since the open world let you wander into very dangerous places. But you also have the freedom to avoid areas you are having trouble with until you are stronger.

First of all, let me clarify that when I say this isn't the best Zelda game, that doesn't really mean anything negative at all. In my opinion, I just always preferred the darker side of Zelda. Ocarina and Twilight Princess will be hard to beat... Anyway... BoTW if fantastic. It's colorful, beautiful and truly has a feeling of wonder. I haven't been able to put it down, I've sunk about 16 hours in and I've only beat the first dungeon...seriously. THATS how big this game is. There's a ton to do and, unlike some open woRld games, it never feels tiresome to want to do side quests and get better weapons, armor, etc. If I had to nitpick...the voice acting is ATROCIOUS. I thought I would finally love to hear people talk after 30 years of Silent Zelda but...nope! Nintendo needs to hire quality people or just return Zelda to the Silent era. Either way, BoTW if an amazing game and you should buy it immediately

Lots to explore. The open world is a very nice addition to the Zelda series, and there's tons to do. But even with all of the openness, it still feels like a classic Zelda game, with puzzles to solve, familiar enemies to fight, and many tools to gather.

One of the best open world games available. Although you shouldnt expect hd textures like RDR2, BOTW is visually stunning in its own way. The gameplay is extremely fun and the story is compelling.

I haven't played a Zelda game since the NES days and this game is the reason i bought a Switch. The combat is satisfying, the environments are beautiful and the world is open (like Skyrim Fallout etc).
