From our original review of *Breath of the Wild*: “*The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild* is a masterclass in open-world design and a watershed game that reinvents a 30-year-old franchise. It presents a wonderful sandbox full of mystery, dangling dozens upon dozens of tantalizing things in front of you that just beg to be explored. I’ve had so many adventures in *Breath of the Wild*, and each one has a unique story behind what led me to them, making them stories on top of stories. And even after spending more than 50 hours searching the far reaches of Hyrule, I still manage to come across things I haven’t seen before. I’ll easily spend 50 to 100 more trying to track down its fascinating moments.”
