Jul 2, 2025Few games will ever meet the high expectations Breath of the Wild has set. The Switch 2 version is the best way to play an unforgettable title with better visuals and some neat new features.

Jun 18, 2025The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is still a phenomenal game, and it's now best played on the Nintendo Switch 2, with improved loading times, higher-resolution graphics, and that silky-smooth frame rate. Zelda Notes is entirely optional if you want to ignore it — and hopefully that sort of addition isn’t the main reason upgrades cost more (or anything).

Jun 10, 2025The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild will go down as one of the best launch titles of all time. Yes, technically it's a Wii U game that was ported over to the Nintendo Switch, but Nintendo made the right decision in holding this game back. It perfectly compliments the Nintendo Switch and highlights why it has the potential to be such a great and versatile console. Many have doubted Nintendo's ability to bring this series into the modern age of gaming, but they've done that and taken it one step further in creating one of the best open-world action-adventure games ever made.

Jun 22, 2025The Nintendo Switch 2 version of Zelda Breath of the Wild is undoubtedly the best way to enjoy this masterpiece. Once again, it's impossible to sulk despite the noticeable absence of little new features that could have been a welcome bonus. If you're in the process of finishing the game, or haven't had a chance to get into it yet, now's your chance. With its crisp resolution, exemplary fluidity and overall improvement in graphics, it's a real treat. A pristine nugget from the Nintendo Switch 1, here sublimated at a lower cost.

Jun 19, 2025Zelda: Breath of the Wild on the Switch 2 further enhances the 2017 classic, with notable graphical improvements and stable performance. Now running at up to 4K and 60 FPS, the game finally delivers the fluidity many fans always wished for, with reduced loading times and a sharper visual presentation, all while preserving the beauty of the original art direction. The experience is virtually flawless, even in areas that previously suffered performance drops on the original Switch.

Dec 28, 2025At this very moment in time, I am actively thinking about replaying the game once again. I wanted to re-explore Hyrule, meet the new champions again, and go back and do some of the side quests I missed. If you have never even played the game before, I invite you to give it a shot. While the price may be a bit much, I promise you that you will come away with an unforgettable experience that you will remember for the rest of your life. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild may not be the best game ever made, but I’d be lying if I said it wasn’t a contender.

Jun 7, 2025Zelda: Breath of the Wild - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition is undoubtedly the best way to play one of the greatest games of all time. The visual and performance enhancements remove any issues that you may have had to endure with the original game. It's practically flawless from that perspective. Sadly, the Zelda Notes app really brings the whole thing down. Useful features that should have been implemented in-game have been relegated to your smartphone, and using it completely breaks immersion in this incredible world. I'm only thankful that it's not even remotely mandatory. Leave Zelda Notes to one side, and you've got the definitive presentation of a modern classic.
