Nintendo’s Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom has just dropped and in comparison to the other games in the Zelda franchise, it has a lot to live up to. For ages this game has been massively hyped up so now it’s finally here! Apparently the game takes around 50 hours to finish and official critics are singing it praises. Keza MacDonald from The Guardian gave the game a 5/5 and said: “I was so absorbed in a labyrinth I’d found at the edge of the map that I nearly missed my boarding call.” I can’t even tell you how excited I am to play.
Zelda: Breath of the Wild was so good, Tears of the Kingdom has big boots to fill. So here’s what people are saying about Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom and its ranking on Metacritic and OpenCritic.
