The release of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom has been highly anticipated for several years, with many wondering how it would compare to the epic launch title Breath of the Wild. TouchArcade’s reviewer has spent a considerable amount of time with the game and has found it to be nothing short of remarkable.
While some may be looking for a review that challenges the common sentiment about this game, it is difficult to find any faults with it. The game offers players an even more detailed and interactive Hyrule to explore and new ways to personalize their experience. There are many more opportunities for players to solve problems and experiment with different ways to achieve their goals, which is a large part of what makes playing the game so enjoyable.
The game also offers players a decent storyline that helps tie all of the gameplay together, though it is the gameplay that is the true standout feature of this release. There are numerous hidden secrets to discover, and the soundtrack fits perfectly with the game’s captivating and immersive world.
Although the game occasionally experiences some framerate issues, which can be a minor annoyance, this does not detract from the overall experience. In summary, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is a must-have for switch owners, and anyone who enjoyed playing Breath of the Wild will find this to be an immensely satisfying addition to the Zelda franchise.
