Customer Ratings & Reviews

It's a little too early to call this game perfect, but so far it's living up to that standard. Looking forward to may hours exploring the vastly expanded land of Hyrule and figuring out the calamity.

Its been a while since a game actually brought me to literal tears (hehe see what I did there?). I've been a fan of these games since I was a 90s kid and my dad was introducing me to Ocarina of Time on the N64. To say I've grown up with The Legend of Zelda at the forefront of my childhood is a complete understatement, and Tears of the Kingdom felt like an all around ode to the child storytellers and world builders that we are. Yes, this is considered a glorified DLC to many returning players, but if you have as much love and devotion to this story as those like myself, it will still drive you to play through it for countless hours, and even to revisit it well over a year after its release. With the NS2 coming out, I can't think of a better time to purchase this game and live through this experience.

This game is the best Zelda Game I have played! If Breath of the Wild was good this one is even better. I love the story, the Puzzles and the Characters it all comes together to make a Excellent game.

Great Game. Not as good as BOTW in my opinion but still great game play and story. Hours of fun

Nintendo is pushing the envelope of the gaming experience again. I’m not that far in, but me and my kid are enjoying a fantastic story, a fantastic sandbox experience, and gorgeous graphics.

If you liked Breath of the Wild, you'll LOVE this! Theres so much to do, new adventures, new concepts, story with some twists and turns-- its seriously just so much fun, and i can't stop playing it!

The game is fantastic. It is a huge improvement on the previous title in many ways and really feels like the developers listened to feedback and criticisms. Where before towns felt like one-off stops to replenish supplies and then move on, now each location has multiple minor questlines and stories that makes them all feel alive. The weapon crafting system makes up for the durability system by making it so it isn't such a big deal when a weapon breaks and now every monster feels worth it to kill to get parts to make more weapons. With tons of customization and even more control to solve puzzles how you want, it really feels like a game that is easy to get lost in for a long time.

Need I explain more? The game is perfect in every way. The story, graphics, gameplays, mechanics.... It's everything I could have wanted and more in this game. I couldn't recommend this game more.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom sets a new standard for excellence on the Nintendo Switch platform. With its stunning visuals, engaging gameplay, and immersive storytelling, it’s a true masterpiece that shines on all three Switch models. Whether you’re playing on the standard Switch, the OLED Model, or the Lite, Tears of the Kingdom delivers an unforgettable adventure that is sure to delight fans both old and new. Don’t miss out on this epic journey through the kingdom of Hyrule. Highly recommended.

Game of the year! It might be daunting for newcomers who didn’t played the original Breath of the wild game. I love the new mechanics and its rich story line which will keep you occupied for months!

Immersive, and good for many age range. My husband and his brother (30s) and both my children (10 & under) love the game, as well as my 17yr old niece. Awesome attention to detail and graphics. My only issue is the repetitive attack sounds made in battle, and the fairy sounds a little sus.

BoTW meets scribblnauts. I would have never imagened how fun and entertaining building is in the Legend of Zelda universe. Whole heartedly recommened even at the increased price point of $70.

Boyfriend loved this game, says it’s the best Zelda game he’s played so far. Really immersive gameplay and good storyline with lots of opportunities to explore beyond the basic game land itself.

Even if you've played Breath of the Wild, this is a must-play as well. The game world has been expanded to below ground and the sky, the physics sandbox has been greatly expanded with the ability to create your own contraptions, the shrines and puzzles are funner and more imaginative than ever, and the rest is the typical Nintendo formula for a great game (immersive soundtrack, smooth fluid gameplay, colorful graphics, etc.). It's a masterpiece. The most memorable game experience of 2023. I can't wait for the next installment!

My kid's new favorite game! The graphics and story are top quality. The new creative elements to the gameplay are enjoyable for a kid whose two favorite games were Breath of the Wild and Minecraft.

Mind blowing multi-tier world bends your preconceived notion of a Zelda game. Puzzles can be solved in an endless number of ways, like the previous entry. Unlike the previous entry you can go underground and in the skies. This is the epitome and next level of the Zelda BOTW experience.

Enjoyed the game. Great purchase. Encourage all people who like open world exploration games. One of the better sequels ever played. The game feels improved from the first installment.

My worries, like many others, were that Nintendo wouldn't do enough to differentiate this game from BOTW. I explored that game world for 200+ hours, and didn't want to do it all over again. I won't get into detail, because you need to experience a lot of it yourself, but they did well to give this game it's own identity... And they went above and beyond in doing it. In the short time that this game has been out, I've already dumped around 80 hours into it because it's such a perfectly crafted experience, and frankly, I'm addicted. I do hope that Zelda returns to its roots someday, but I'm happy to have received a game like this, where Nintendo really listened to their fans.

If you enjoyed Breath of the Wild, you'll enjoy Tears of the Kingdom. The world feels like it's the same size but also feels like it's doubled because of the underground world you can explore as well as the sky. This game feels more like a Legend of Zelda game as compared to Breath of the Wild which was nice, but still kind of long for that real Legend of Zelda charm that the previous games had. I kind of find myself getting bored with these games after I've beat them as compared to the previous Zelda games. After I beat Breath of the Wild, I never went back to it and have really no desire to explore and get all the treasures because I already beat the game. Tears of the Kingdom is a little better paced but again, beat it and now I'm not interested in exploring more of what the game has. Not saying it's a bad game because it's a good one. I'm just getting bored with this kind of Zelda game now. Would love to have something like Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, Wind Waker, and Twilight Princess again. I know those games are linear, but it felt like you were actually leveling up with all the gear you were finding along the way. The satisfaction is a little better in Tears of the Kingdom as compared to Breath of the Wild which is nice, but still it misses that mark with me. Would still recommend a play through for the Zelda fans, but you definitely don't need to rush to buy this game and play it. It's cool, but nothing special.

If you loved Breath of the Wild you'll love this. If you didn't, well you'll get more of the same here. Solid open world sandbox sequel that doesn't try to break the mold. Fun
