The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom sets a new standard for the open-world Zelda formula. It’s a truly unforgettable experience that manages to encapsulate everything good about its predecessor while setting itself apart from what came before. When combined with the power of the newly released Switch 2, it truly comes into its own and exemplifies exactly why Zelda is so revered within the gaming landscape.
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is a truly generational game. It improves on all aspects of its predecessor, Breath of the Wild. The narrative balances various tones and progresses the character arcs of its major protagonists, while introducing new and compelling NPCs. Further, the gameplay only enhances one of gaming's greatest sandboxes with a new fantastic line of abilities, activities, dungeons, and boss fights. Everything about Tears of the Kingdom is perfect, and as far as I'm concerned, it's one of the best games I've ever played in my entire life.
An excellent upgrade to an already phenomenal game. The Switch 2 version of Tears of the Kingdom is the definitive way to play the game.

Tears of the Kingdom is perfection. It is easily one of the best games ever released on a Nintendo platform. The graphics are top-notch and look incredible whether you are docked or in handheld mode. The music is top-tier and sets the perfect atmosphere for every moment. What I love most is the sheer amount of content, there are always tasks to do, but the free-roam is so good that you can just get lost for hours. I’ve had massive sessions where time just disappears. A must-play for everyone.

Embora BotW seja mais saudosista, TotK é mais jogo, porque acrescentou mais cenários, mundos, inimigos e dinâmicas de interação que fazem este jogo ser um dos melhores da história de toda a indústria.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom was already on the Mount Rushmore of video games. That said, if you weren't able to click with the original due to the performance, the Nintendo Switch 2 Edition completely revolutionizes the game. Having spent over 70 hours exploring the vast region of Hyrule in glorious HDR, I can't recommend this game enough; it's truly one of the best gaming experiences you can buy in 2025.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is a new masterpiece that makes Breath of the Wild, one of the best games of all time, look like a mess. Following in the footsteps of its predecessor, it is certainly no longer a "revolution," but it perfects the player experience in an epic dimension that is unparalleled. The feeling of freedom, the impression of living your own adventure without constraints, these are the great strengths of a game with an absolutely exceptional lifespan. Tears of the Kingdom is revealed over time, little by little, to the point that it will still have things to reveal to us for years to come. It is a jewel of absolute purity and definitely, adventure with a capital A.

The Switch 2 upgrade for Tears of the Kingdom is a massive win: visually impressive, feature-rich, and finally running without compromise.

I love Zelda and I really wanted to love this entry. If you’re looking for an open world sandbox with outstanding physics and mechanics, this is the game for you. Its graphics, controls, sound design and music are absolutely stunning. And despite my grievances, I still put in over 150 hours, even on an adult’s schedule. But I can perhaps see now why I dropped this game shortly after launch, it’s a less cohesive experience than Breath of the Wild, exemplifying not only its best qualities but also some of its weakest. Perhaps open world Zelda has reached its natural peak; will the next entry try to somehow top it, or will it return to the old formula that I seem to be hung up with nostalgia for? Time will tell.

Nastavak odlične igre sa par naviteta ali na istoj mapi, isti likovi i iste ili slicne stvari radis. Depths grozan, dosadilo nakon 50h...Zavrsio sva 4 regionalna fenomena i stao.

Is this a good game? absolutely, is this worth a remaster not even 2 years after it's original release? definitely not,I don't care if it has better performance (performance even still poor compared to today's standards), it should've been sold like an update to it's original self and not an overpriced remaster

The game is good, but honestly it’s the same as the previous one. And even if the Switch 2 allows for graphical improvements, I think the franchise is starting to run out of steam. At this price point, something fresh would be expected…
