Amazing game, made you work for all the gear and perks you get without making it reel tedious. Story is great and gameplay felt so fluid and natural.

I've been playing this game for 40 hours and I've only begun to scratch the surface of the game play. The world is vast, the story is gripping, and the world is intricate. This game is a must buy for the Nintendo Switch!

I want to emphasize the fact that I can not put my switch down becuse of this game. Such an amazing game from graphics to how wide open it is and how much their is to do. You can't Truly get sick of this game. GO ANS GET IT NOW!

As a longtime fan of the Legend of Zelda series. I was looking forward to the series latest installment. And when the developers said that they wanted to break the “conventions” of the series as a whole. By asking themselves “what are some concepts that make up the Zelda series as as a whole?” And that question is definitely answered by the time. You play this are off into exploring every inch of Hyrule. It’s an amazing feeling to know that you can go anywhere. And aren’t held down by boundaries or characters telling you where to go. And the way you tackle situations and combat. Is also going to vary at times. But overall, it’s a must have for any Switch or even Wii U owner. And it’s a unforgettable experience. Which brings the series to new heights.

The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild breaks away with the linearity of previous games and thrusts link into a massive open world. This game is a masterpiece with plenty of locations to explore and lots of things to discover.

If you picked up a Switch at launch, or plan on getting one, this is a perfect example of what the system is capable of. A beautiful world, engaging story and well-executed combat system. Do yourself a favor and pick this one up.

Gameplay and the story is largely engrossing. You won't want to turn off your Nintendo Switch and you will be glad you purchased one if for nothing else than for the ability to play this game

While I have always adored the Zelda series, the recent entries have failed to capture the magic of finding secrets and discovering treasures that the series was known for in its early days. This game captures that essence perfectly. Being the first truly open world Zelda game since the orignal and to some extent A Link to the Past, the game feels like a love letter to long time fans as it perfectly creates the feeling that made the original great, while modernizing other aspects of gameplay such as combat and world design. While some fans may miss the classic design of some of the more well-known games in the franchise (linear progression with large themed dungeons being the main focus), this new take on a Legendary series is certainly not one to be missed, even by new Zelda players.

This zelda game is very explorable. Great puzzles and action

My whole family loves this game! The wide open world to explore is fun for even the younger ones, however it is definitely better suited for the 10+ crowd due to the difficulty of some of the quests and challenges.

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

The Legend of Zelda is one of the greatest franchises of all time. And set the standard for third person combat. The lock on camera / combat you see in Assassins Creed, Dark Souls, GTA, etc? was all thanks to Zelda: Ocarina of Time. Breath of the Wild went back to its roots of Zelda 1 and is a non liner, fully open world game. It's a breath of fresh air the series needed after the very liner cinematic Skyward Sword. The Combat is simple (sadly ditching Twilight Princess' combo system) but very fun. You can climb anything. ANYTHING. More open world games need that. You have to wear clothing the suits the harsh weather Cook meals from items you find throughout the world that give status effects (stronger attacks, temporary health / stamina boost) Find and tame wild horses to make traversing Hyrule faster. Really awesome additions to the series! But the best (and worst) thing about this game is it's open world. First time playing, it's an amazing experience discovering a ruined Hyrule. But once you have discovered everything and replay, you realize how empty the world is. (Might have been on purpose) There is little to no replay value, especially since the story is nearly nonexistent (and the voice acting is horrendous.) Most side missions are just fetch quests... Another thing Zelda is known for is its music and dungeons. There are only 5 dungeons that all look the same (except for Hyrule Castle) and the music... after 400 hours, I only recall hearing 3 songs: Hyrule castle, Dodongo fight and Ganon fight. Overall: as a Zelda game? It's okay but as it's own game it's really something amazing. A must own.

This one is a must have for all the Zelda fans. The graphics, the gameplay and the story are really amazing. This one is an exclusive for the Nintendo and is partially why I bought the system. Worth every penny!

EDGE magazine gave this game a 10/10 and said it was quite possibly the best Zelda game yet. I have to agree wholeheartedly. I've easily sunk over 60 hours into the game with much more to go. The game is unmatched when it comes to modern open world RPGs. It's been at least a decade since I've seen an open world where quests don't take the forefront and exploration is rewarded. No matter what you find yourself doing in Breath of the Wild, you will be enjoying yourself and constantly discovering new things that you can do. The physics based engine and carefully crafted shrines and environments allow multiple ways to accomplish nearly all of the puzzles and challenges in the game. Do yourself a favor and pick up this game if you picked up the switch. You will not regret it.

This game, there is a lot of things to say about it. But first and foremost, it lives up to the title "The Legend of Zelda". With a more human approach to character designs and the almost post-apocalyptic feel of the game. It's easy to see that Ganon had won the battle but the war was still open to debate. The combat in Zelda is something I had not seen in the serious before. More than just a single sword/shield, it was about tactics. Blocking too much can cause your shield to shatter, fighting the same monster from before (but now has a steel weapon) will kill you. You. Will. Die. I can not recommend this game enough, as a launch title it sets a standard that other developers will find daunting. Especially in 2017, this will be a hard game to beat in terms of gameplay.

This is a great game, and buy this version on sale, and then buy the upgrade to the Switch 2 version later, and save some money.

Best game ever. Open world, adventure, quests, monsters. This game has it all and beautiful scenery as well. Graphics are great. Hours and hours of game to play.

With this game being the flagship game for the new console I expected it to be pretty good and I was not disappointed. It captures the exploration aspect of the original very well and expands it to this generation of gameplay.

There are no words to describe how amazing this game is. Last game I completed in LOZ was a link to the past. I couldn't love the rest. But this game...I can't put it down. Perfection may not be good enough to describe it...

This game has had me hooked since I started playing. I'm a long-time Zelda fan and let me tell you, this game goes back to its roots with the original NES Zelda. You're freely to go anywhere you want, however, you may end up going into a difficult area! The combat is extremely brutal and unlike any past Zelda games! Some times you may be at full health and one little swing at you can kill you so you must learn enemy attack patterns and cook food/potions to give you defense. The exploration in this game is amazing. There are lots of quests to do, lots of weapons to collect, lots of shrines to complete, lots of items to collect (900 KOROK SEEDS!) so for the completiomist, expect to put in over 100 hours. The perfect game to play while you wait for more games to launch
