Customer Ratings & Reviews

I'll start by saying I was not the biggest fan of BOTW since I really enjoy the more streamlined zelda experiences (Twilight Princess is my favorite). This game is MASSIVE and honestly a bit overwhelming, but I find the exploration much more engaging than BOTW. I also appreciate the darker tone. This game also looks excellent on the oled. Honestly kind of mind blowing theh got this game to work on switch.

I'm completely blown away by this game. I thought this would be the same as Breath of The Wild, but they completely redesigned everything and added not one, but two additional layers. It's still annoying keeping weapons from breaking so often. Some of the landscapes are still a bit barren and empty in some areas. Overall the game is fun and very in depth with lots of hours of game play.

What can be said about any Zelda game, that hasn’t already been sung it’s many praises?! Always fun! Excellent graphics. What a story.

If you own a switch this is what you’ve been waiting for. Yes compared to the other consoles the hardware is dated but Nintendo works it’s magic with a certain level of creativity you just won’t find elsewhere. You are given the tools you need at the beginning of the game but you will find new ways to use them throughout your journey. Just amazing the countless ways you can do things in this game.

this game is one of the greatest games in not just the series but in all of gaming history. the story, gameplay, and everything else is near perfection. and they improved so much on the issues in breath of the wild. it is a love letter to zelda fans everywhere and if you haven't played breath of the wild, this game is still easy to understand while having the challenge of the previous game

A game that had a hard act to follow in Breath of the Wild and it passes it with ease. A true testament to gaming when a game can out do the original. TOTK has so much to offer with exploration, side quests, and one of the most beautiful soundtracks I have ever experienced. 10 out of 10 and a must play to those who love RPG's.

What an epic amazing game! After 75 hours I finally completed The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. When I first started playing it I thought it had a really steep learning curve. But I put in 10 or so hours then just kept getting stuck and had to take breaks throughout it in the beginning. You can’t really just go and start playing the main game without beating a bunch of shrines, finding armor, and cooking and selling items to get rupees. But once I finally got to start the temples I quickly fell in love. So cool to play through the temples, meet the sages and having them join you in battle is really cool. Truly felt like Ocarina of time to me. Besides some of the challenges of getting started in the game was the perfect difficulty. The graphics are pretty standard, and the music was really good but not as good as Ocarina of time. I’m really glad I was able to get into this game since I wasn’t a huge fan of breath of the wild. The game is enormous too. There is so much you can do and I feel like I barely scratched the surface. I think in this day and age - this is probably my favorite Zelda game. But I don’t think anything will beat that feeling of when I played Ocarina of Time when I was in elementary school and being blown away by it. Probably my favorite game of the year so far. 9.4/10

I think it's the perfect sequel to Breath of the Wild. It's everything that game was and more. TotK expands so much on what made the first game so incredible. It added new areas to explore, new enemies to fight, and basically infinite possibilities with the new fuse and ultrahand abilities. It has actual dungeons this time and not whatever the divine beasts were. 10/10, definitely pick this one up.

This game has to be one of the best Zelda games yet! There is so much to do and is exciting from beginning till end. The new abilities added really make this game stand out from other games. Also the game literally has like 3 different maps. They are Land, Underground, and sky. You will definitely get your money’s worth with this title. Took me a month to finish.

TLDR: Game is great! It build upon the great game of BOTW and added so much more. Game runs ok in handheld mode but better when docked. It’s unfortunate that the graphics can’t add to the gameplay experience. 720p @ 30fps is kinda liking for a game like this. However, the gameplay is fun and engaging and the story is pretty decent. If you loved BOTW then you will definitely love this game too.

Amazing game with wonderful building mechanics! I have heard people say the story is lacking but for me the story seems great as well especially if you know anything about the previous Zelda games! 100% buy the game it’s actually worth the price and will give you hours of fun and has better shrines than breath of the wild in my opinion! Better than breath of the wild for me personally!

One of my favorite games of the year! Big fan of how much there is to do. The exploration is my absolute favorite

I love the Legend of Zelda series. There has not been a game from the series that I did not enjoy. Tears of the Kingdom is no different. The gameplay is great. The story is unique, and fun to unravel the mystery. There is so much to do in the game which allows people to play the game how they wish. It also makes each playthrough unique giving the game great replay ability.

Fantastic open-world game with endless possibilities. The only problem is there are not enough hours in the day to play this game enough. Tears of the Kingdom has done the impossible and made one of the greatest games ever created (Breath of the Wild) advanced by leaps and bounds in every aspect of the gameplay experience. This is a living world worth getting lost in for hours upon hours.

BRILLIANT! I decided to preorder this game due to the special place the first game holds in my heart. I was a little worried that it would fail to meet my expectations but it has surpassed them. This review will not have any story spoilers as I have not progressed in the main story very much but have 30+ hours in just sheer exploration alone. The sheer scope of the game is not even the most impressive part (which is very impressive). My favorite portion of the gameplay is the amount of possibilities when it comes to encountering puzzles and enemies. For example, something i noticed is that the shrines are a lot more open ended and contain a larger area than the first game. The game hands you a few materials and says good luck. There are more obvious ways to solve a puzzle but you can do what you want and the game rewards creativity. One con some people may have is with how open ended it is. The game sometimes feels directionless and overwhelming as to where to go and what to do besides the main story's hints on where to go. If you would prefer the game be more linear than this one may not be for you. I have gotten by by following the story markers and setting indivual goals to get around. There is so much more I could get into but this review is getting long enough. Gameplay wise, this game is a masterpiece in my eyes. I highly recommend a purchase if you are into games that reward creativity.

Fantastic game. Im not a heavy game player, mostly a mario family games every few weeks. After playing the Breath of the Wild, i knew i wanted to get this game. The $70 price is a little high, but worth every penny. All of the added maps add so much game play it almost feels like multiple games in 1. I would highly recommend. My favorite switch game closely followed by Breath of the wild.

Excellent story, awesome graphics, and the open world is amazing

After 2017’s Zelda Breath of the Wild, I didn’t think much extra for its sequel Tears of the Kingdom. After roughly 100+ hours in, this game is overflowing with content. The new gameplay mechanics are jarring at first, u will be fusing, gliding, parrying, rewinding like a pro in little time. There’s a building mechanic in this game that will cater to Minecrafters too. Must buy!

You will play this game for 100 hours. Several will be spent flailing around with physical mechanics but you will persevere. You will spend late nights trying to find caves and clothing. There are too many places to go and there are too many weapons but you will persevere. The story is neither compelling nor boring, but hang on to a tissue or two.

I wandered through skies where dreams take flight, in lands where magic breathes and silence speaks. Though not a gamer, this world called to me—its beauty, its mystery, its boundless freedom. Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is more than a game; it’s a journey of wonder, waiting to be lived.
