The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (Nintendo Switch)

Product Information

Limited Edition – Nintendo knows that there is a huge community of Zelda fanatics out there, so it’s no surprise that they brought out a limited-edition version. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of Wild Expansion Pass includes two pieces of DLC, The Master Trials, and The Champions Ballad, which provide new quests and cosmetic items. As usual, our main protagonist is Link, who we control as he battles enemies and bosses, goes on quests and side missions, and tames horses to ride.

There are 120 spread across the game map, all of which include rewards like runes when the puzzles they contain are completed. You'll enjoy a new style of play that's slightly different from the rest of the franchise, but which honours the origins of this iconic saga. The map, and the amount of things you are required to do and see is an absolute vast of pure pleasure. Prepare for the biggest Legend of Zelda adventure yet, with an open-air style that breaks new boundaries while honouring the origins of the acclaimed series. Again, you can use the Joy-Con controllers to precisely aim your arrows and unleash them on your adversary, which takes some getting used to but could be the most effective way to attack.The role of the Princess Zelda changed from episode to episode, but rescuing her generally remained Link’s goal, as did the quest to reunite the three pieces of the ‘Triforce’. The Standard Edition – Including just the game disc (or download) of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and nothing more. Breath of the Wild threw out the tried and tested formula from the series and was the biggest departure since Ocarina of Time bought the dungeon crawler into a three-dimensional Hyrule in 1997. Along the way, you’ll battle towering enemies, hunt wild beasts and gather ingredients for the food and elixirs you’ll need to sustain you on your journey.

The protagonist of the game is, as always, Link, who can explore the land of Hyrule with a range of actions from swimming to walking or running; even climbing or gliding with a paraglider. You may well find that hotukdeals merchants are offering cheaper deals than standard bundles, so don’t pay over the odds. From the animals you hunt in the woods, to the different recipes you concoct, this is a bountiful world of opportunity. Its sheer sense of scale is a sight to behold and it looks utterly beautiful whether on the big or small screen.However, if you love your Wii U and have no interest in what the Switch has to offer, there’s no need to upgrade just because Breath of the Wild has come along.
