Customer Ratings & Reviews

Love this game!!! It’s more open so you can do what you want to do and it’s super creative!! Been a Zelda fan from the start and always will be!

Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is an impressive game in every way. The world is vast and full of details, with so much to discover. The story is exciting and well-written, keeping you hooked from start to finish. The graphics and music are top-notch, creating an immersive experience you won’t want to put down. If you enjoy epic adventures, this game is a must-buy.

This game is honestly a masterpiece. I knew it would be a good game even if it wasn't a good zelda game, but WOW I was blown away. It has everything I've wanted in a zelda game: the large world of Breath of the Wild to explore and find cool stuff, and numerous puzzles throughout the game. Also, they brought back dungeons! I wanted more dungeons because I love dungeons, but I really liked the ones in this game. Overall, I'm shocked at how much content is in this game. I don't know what the next zelda game will be like, but they just set the bar really high for themselves. Highly recommend.

I'm amazed at how Nintendo was able to sell me "Breath of the Wild" again, and made me fall in love with it all over again. Tears of the Kingom is a true sequel to BOTW, it's essentially the same game BUT very different. They added so many new features, added extra layers to Hyrule, there is way more to explore and more things to collect. The story is very good and the ending is rewarding. I absolutely love this game. It's looking like it's a locked "Game of the Year" again for Zelda. I don't see anything beating it, even with all the great games we have gotten so far in 2023.

The follow up to Breath of the Wild (which was a masterpiece) is somehow even greater. The gameplay, story, traversal, creativity, and freedom are unparalleled.

An amazing sequel to botw. So many new game mechanics and a deeper story.

One of the GOTYs nominees for 2023 in my opinion. Tears of the Kingdom takes everything that you loved about Breath of the Wild and added to it. Creative mechanics make this open world adventure game seem even more boundless, see a mountain in the distance you don’t just have to walk over to it and climb it you can make a device that flys you there and then scales it for you. A wonderful journey that is new and exciting but able to couple it with traditional elements of Zelda games. A worthwhile purchase.

Ive been playing TOTK in my spare time between work and whenever i can- ive clocked at least 50 hours at this point… and ive still barely knocked a dent in it. This game has redefined the idea of an open world concept by making it 3 levels of open worlds. There is an endless amount of things to do and places to explore, all while staying true to the core principles of a zelda game. In the time that ive played i havent experienced any glitches or issues (hard copy game). I absolutely love it and will continue playing until i reach 100% completion!

Continuing the story from BotW, the latest entry in the Legend of Zelda series is a masterpiece. As one of few direct sequels, it seamlessly immerses the player in the kingdom of Hyrule, recently recoverd from the Calamity. As Link journeys to restore himself, the player is introduced to the ancient land of Hyrule, a new kingdom facing a major threat from the evil king Ganondorf, who seeks nothing short of world domination. As link realises his new powers, he contends with the forces of the demon king to finally bring peace to the land

This video game is great! The colors and all the interaction are very well done. Every stage of the video game is great; it simply captivates you to play it and reach the end of each level.

Easily spent 300+ hours playing the game. I've been a Zelda fan from a young age, and just like how Breath of the Wild got me really hooked, Tears of the Kingdom totally delivered on being a sequel worth waiting for. Just when you think Nintendo couldn't take the series' story any farther than they did with Breath of the Wild, they exceeded expectations again. Great offering for a Zelda fan. Probably not for everyone though, but a great open world offering from Nintendo.

Absolutely fantastic game. I was worried that Tears of the Kingdom would just be more Breath of the Wild without anything new or exciting, but I was wrong. It kept everything good about BotW but added an incredible sandbox and a more engaging story. While it still hasn't captured the atmosphere and feel of some of the classics, like Ocarina of Time, it makes up for it in liberating gameplay.

Immersive Vertical Open World. Ground-breaking story, generational gameplay mechanics. A must have for Switch owners of all ages.

Although this game as a standalone deserves a 5/5, as a Zelda game I can't give it more than 4. Just like with Breath of the Wild, although a technical marvel and a phenominal game, the lack of linearity is dissapointing. However, The Nintendo Switch is pushed to the absolute limits and we should applaud the development team with all the work that got put into this game. The game would be perfect if it had similar dungeons to other 3D Zelda games. This game, along with the majority of open world games, gives the player too much freedom to do what they want. Instead of having a start and end to the game with side quests sprinkled in, you have infinite freedom. For some people this is a great thing, but I find myself getting exhausted when playing. Instead of "I'm going to beat this dungeon today." It's, "time to do another 12 shrines and place objects in front of the president poles." I don't get the same wow factor that Ocarina of Time, or Twighlight Princess provided. When I played those games for the first time, I couldn't put them down. Now, I find myself easily able to put the game down and do something else rather than just exploring. Zelda is my favorite franchise of all time but BoTW and TotK just don't keep me hooked. I have 100% every 3D Zelda game and I will do so with this one as well. The game itself is a great game and I would reccomend it to everyone in a heartbeat, but they don't hold a special place in my heart like the other Zelda games do.

It’s rare for a game as ambitious as this one to launch these days without being a broken mess. This game runs smooth, and the new mechanics bring a refreshing twist on the core gameplay from Breath of the Wild. I am 60 hours in with over 70 shrines completed and feel like i’ve still barely scratched the surface of exploration. So far the story has been so-so and suffers from the non-linear approach you’re allowed to take but the gameplay and exploration more than makes up for that.

Didnt get it as fast as i would of liked. Could of easuly bought it anywhere else near me and enioyed it for 3-4 days more with how long it took fedex to get me my package. Fedex sucks around here. UPS Is so much better at getting packages to us on time or even early. Fedex just holds the package till the day of its estimated delivery or its delayed. Regardless of the shipping, this game is great. It took everything from botw and tweaked it all, added new concepts, changed the powers for the better, and everything feels a whole lot better fleshed out in this game. I didnt even like botw that much, it was easy, hardly any dungeons, shrines felt kind of lame most of the time, and exploring the world never felt rewarding at all. You just got money, gems, or more weapons. Which you never really needed. On a side note, it didnt help that i dont enjoy games that just dump you in a world with almost zero direction. And tbh, totk does this just like botw. The main difference is how they went about it, they reworked the rewards they meet out in this game and added a lot of new areas abd reworked old areas that really invoke your sense of adventure. And now that you have real treasure you can find, with treasure maps and such, it encoursges you to actually go out and explore. On a different note, and maybe an unpopular opinion, i dont enjoy the crafting so much in this game. I enjoy the basic crafting, but i hardly use any of the zonai tech other than a few things rarely or when required literally for a shrine or a sky island but i think the game is much better without it. But im just not a crafting, mechanical like dude at all. Im sure others really enjoy it and kids probably thinks its mind blowing cool but its not that great imo. I enjoy finding rare fusions materials from bosses and such and enjoy having a collection of strong weapons but crafting is kind of not fun.

If you are looking for a graphic upgrade from Breath of the Wild you will be disappointed. If however you are looking for a continuation of an amazing story then look no further. This game is amazing and I have been enjoying playing it. It has new mechanics that keep it interesting for hours and hours. The story was a solid 9/10. The gameplay an 8/10. Graphics a 7/10. This is not to say that this game is not in my top 10 of 2023.

PHENomenal game with open world exploration. Similar layout and gameplay to Breath of the Wild in the same franchise, with many of the same loveable characters and storylines, side quests, etc.

How do you review 6 years of anticipation and hype? Not perfect, but the best possible follow-up to breath of the wild. Lots of nuanced controls to get accustomed to. Great fun, and in my case, story cutscenes that take my brain back in time to when I opened my NES Deluxe set. Thae awe and sense of wonder revived. Did it last the entire game for me? No! Though i still appreciate the value and talent it took to create this gem of a video game. Open world gamer? Buy and enjoy.

Long time Zelda fan, but this really took the franchise to a whole new level. The amount of experimentation and exploration the game encourages is like nothing else I’ve ever played, and the physics engine combined with a killer story and fighting mechanics makes this one of the most unique adventure games of all time.
