Customer Ratings & Reviews

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.

Tears of the Kingdom will not disappoint! So much to do in this game. Absolutely love putting in every second into this game. Highly recommend.

Came as described. Took a couole weeks to arrive which seemed a bit longer than it should have.

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.

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.

This game is the best one that the developers could ever make. When I finished BOTW years ago I was hopping for a second game to BOTW and omg I was right they made it and so when I started playing I was having so much fun. I managed to finish the game under a week hence it was the summer already so I was off with vacation. And the more I kept playing this I was happy. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to play any action games like this

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

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.

This is one of the best video games ever made but you probably already know that. I appreciate the fact Best Buy has hard copies of games day 1. I avoid GameStop whenever possible.

9.5/10. An amazing sequel to one of the best open world games in the last decade. This is more than a “BoTW DLC”, there are so many improvements and quality of life features that make this the best version of BoTW. The only thing holding this back from a perfect 10 is the hardware. The fact that the Nintendo Switch doesn’t initiate a self-destruct sequence upon entering areas like the Depths is a technological achievement in and of itself. The 30 FPS, although manageable, really hold this title back. Nowadays 60 FPS should be the standard and not an unreasonable feat. Regardless the graphics are great considering and this will go right into my top 10 games of all time.

Nintendo didban amazing job at making this game stand apart and shine above breath of the wild there is so much more to explore and so much more to experiment with with the new mechanics.

This game is endless fun. There is so much to do that doesnt make you feel like youre doing useless things. The world is so deep with so much to discover and interact with.

Completely expanded on Breath of the Wild. Worth the extra money all day.. the new open world and mechanics make it almost completely limitless, allowing every experience to be unique..

The game is really fun and if you played breath of the wild you need to play this game. It's been a lot more fun and with more gameplay added in and a more areas to explore

(Spoiler free) I Love this game!!! It makes breath of the wild look like a tech demo with all of the it’s new features and abilities but, the story is definitely sometimes lacking and feels repetitive in a certain area . This repetition actually made me skip certain cutsences because i already knew what the characters were going to say. To be honest if your looking of an amazing story, this game isn’t for you. Even so, just exploring the massive (and I mean MASSIVE) map is already insanely fun paired with an awesome crafting system which lets you create you own custom vehicles and weapons any point in the game only makes this game even better. 9.5/10

What is there to say? This is an awesome follow up to Breath of the Wild. There is so much to do, so many secrets and hidden things, and it is all fun. Nintendo outdid themselves.

What can be said that professional reviewers haven’t said already? This game is simply pure videogame magic. There’s never been anything quite like it. Myself and my 3 children all have our own files going and have all discovered vastly different things and are tackling the game in our own unique ways. It’s hard to talk to each other with our discoveries without spoiling something for someone else. Different things catch our eyes and different mechanics have drawn us in to all have our very own adventures and it’s truly breathtaking. The way we get together and talk about it is almost like being back on the playgrounds in the ‘80s or ‘90s again.

This has to be one of the best games I’ve ever played, the amount of stuff you can do in this game alone makes it really enjoyable and story is fantastic. Would recommend 1000000/10

Fantastic game and sequel to Breath of the Wild! The stoey and dungeons were great and the game was an overall step up from the first one. Amazing game, will definitely replay it.

I’m a legend of Zelda fan since 1983. I’ve enjoyed every Zelda game I’ve played which is all but a few titles. Nintedo is tops when it comes to game design and Tears of the Kingdom meets the high degree Nintendo maintains. I pre-ordered Tears in February, the same day Best Buy offered it for pre-order. Tears is very similar to Breath of the wild so it could’ve been called Breath of the Wild 2. Make no mistake though, there is much, much new challenges, territories to explore and strategies to investigate. If you’re like me and love exploring, solving puzzles and choosing when to engage in a fight-you’ll love Tears of the Kingdom.
