    Game was phenomenal and somehow topped breathe of the wild. Definitely the best Zelda game to date.

    This is by far the greatest game I have ever had the pleasure of playing. Most of the people rating it 0 played for 5 minutes and decided to hate it because it doesn’t run like games designed for supercomputers. This is definitely a must for anyone who enjoys good video games

    Understandable that the game is a copy and paste to BOTW. However, TOTK has many hours of enjoyment and challenge. Soaring the skies above Hyrule or exploring the under dark depths, you will definitely put long hours into this game. I'm 80 + hours in the game with most main quest finished; I just can't put the game down.

    Of course, this game has flaws, but from my experience the state that the game is in was better compared to most triple A video games. Some framerate issues rarely occur but they are not game breaking. As TOTK, builds upon its predecessor in gameplay the storytelling is about the same but has different elements to continue the lore from BOTW. It will be interesting to see where future Zelda games go from here.

    TOTK for me is 10 out of 10. For being a magnificent game in terms of gameplay and building upon the storyline. Not to mention the building mechanic of fanplanes, hovercrafts or even a tank to eliminate Bokoblins or Hinox. Definitely a game I would recommend playing.    … Expand

    è un gioco stupendo, ottimizzato benissimo su switch con una grafica molto bella e una storia strappa lacrime.
    ci sono tantissime cose da fare con altrettanti modi per farle o risolvere gli enigmi presenti, mappa veramente enorme rispetto allo scorso zalda (botw). 10/10

    El mejor juego de la historia, no cabe duda, para mí es una obra de arte, al igual que sus antecesores, la experiencia que he vivido con esta bellísima y majestuosa obra de arte, va a ser insuperable y recordada por mi, de por vida, Gracias por todo Nintendo.

    A really great game that will give you hours and hours of entertainment.
    Good optimization for a console that is not at the top of graphics or power, but it shows the work of a good optimization.
    The prize is higher than other Nintendo games but is worth it.
    I don't have anything bad to say about this game.
    Just great.

    This game is getting reviewed bombed only because some are attempting to prevent Zelda from getting the The Game Of The Year Award. Really surprised this game can even run on The Switch and many talk about lag but that will eventually be patched up. This game is their priority...anyways easily one of the best games ever made so I will keep this at that and spoiler free.

    I loved Breath of the Wild but this game makes it feel small and crude. Tears of the Kingdom is absolutely monumental and if you liked Breath of the Wild you are going to love it.
    For me this is the perfect video game.

    Meccaniche innovative e da certi punti di vista veramente fatte bene.
    Il bello di questo gioco è il fatto che stimola la creatività e da un senso di pace e avventura allo stesso tempo.

    Estou jogando a mais de 30 horas e a quantidade de conteúdo desse game é maravilhosa. As novas habilidades, poder explorar as ilhas e o subsolo, fora o mapa térreo ter mudanças significativas dos cenários habituais de botw, tornam esse jogo uma experiência fantástica.

    Honestly, I expected less from the game. I thought that Hyrule would not be very interesting because of the same map, but after playing the first 5 hours, I realized how wrong I was.

    People need to look up what a sequel is before playing this game.

Any complaint I've seen can pretty much be said about any other Zelda game to one another, because its a gameplay loop that defines the series. going to the three/four regions to collect the power things or whatever to defeat ganon/ganondorf/whoever. a lot of people will say "as a Zelda fan..." and then talk about their experiences with ONLY breath of the wild. While I'm not denying that you can be a Zelda fan just by playing that one game, it sure does make it hard for some people to be retrospective on a series they've literally played a single entry to (and the most recent one at that). if you're going to play this game i have a couple things you shouyld do beforehand: 1) stop playing breath of the wild - TOTK is a massively expanded upon version of BOTW, and what I've seen is most people playing TOTK with the same gameplay style as BOTW and then complain how its just like BOTW. 2) play literally any other Zelda game first - you'll get a hang of the typical set up this series has and loops it throws you into (you may still complain that they're all too similar, but if so, maybe you actually just don't like Zelda?) and 3) just play the game. games are a lot harder to get into and to have fun with when you're constantly trying to compare the game to something else.

    In a few words, an improved Breath of the Wild, with tons of new mechanics, content, and environments, but what Nintendo achieved with this game is sorcery.

    I wasn't sure how Nintendo would find a way to top their work in Breath of the Wild back when it came out, but I feel they have here – with years of more polish applied and refined exploration. [Issue #66 – July/August 2023, p. 71]

    The good thing is that, thanks to the limited possibilities, the creators couldn't go crazy and swing for hundreds of game miles. Instead, they created what could be called Elden Ring in a travel pack. [Issue#328]

    The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom has lived up to the high expectations created by the success of Breath of the Wild with its exquisitely intertwined gameplay systems, outstanding music, and a legendary story culminating in a magnificent denouement. It's not every day that such a special video game like this comes around. Truly the stuff of legend.
