The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
See that mountain? You can climb it. 🗺️
Who it's for
Breath of the Wild is built on the thrill of 'I wonder what's over there.' Almost any mountain you can see, you can climb, and the game rewards curiosity with new views, shrines and surprises rather than a checklist.
Restless, curious→Excited, full of wonder
Feelings it meets
What it is
Link wakes from a long sleep with no memory and steps out onto a vast, ruined Hyrule. After a short tutorial area, players can go almost anywhere in any order, climbing, gliding and experimenting with a physics-driven world before eventually confronting Calamity Ganon.
Where to find it
Nintendo Switch and Wii U; also on Nintendo Switch 2 (2025 edition). Physical and digital via Nintendo eShop and retailers.
