Now that we’re swiftly approaching the one-year anniversary of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, we suspect that many of you have likely completed the game at this stage. Even if you haven’t yet and are still mopping up those remaining Korok Seeds, it’s probably reasonable to assume that you’ve experienced enough of the game to conclude how it stacks up nexts to its predecessor, Breath of the Wild.
Take our lovely video Producer, Felix, for instance. In his latest video, he expresses how he much prefers Breath of the Wild to Tears of the Kingdom after having experienced both games. He goes into a good deal of detail about why this is the case, so we’d encourage you to watch the whole thing to fully understand his reasoning. That said, we gave both games a score of 10/10 here on Nintendo Life, and we absolutely adore them for different reasons.
In fact, we’ve previously gone on record to demonstrate several ways in which Tears of the Kingdom improves upon Breath of the Wild, but does that necessarily mean it’s a better game overall? Hmm…
We all have our preferences, of course. So we’d love to know yours. Which open world Zelda game do you prefer? Are you partial to the purity that Breath of the Wild offers, or are you more inclined to enjoy the expanded freedom and expermentation found in Tears of the Kindom? Let us know your thoughts by filling in our poll, and please do expound with a comment down below too.

Ah, the age-old debate: Breath of the Wild vs Tears of the Kingdom. As someone who has poured countless hours into both games, I can say that they each hold a special place in my heart. While Breath of the Wild introduced us to a vast open world full of exploration and discovery, Tears of the Kingdom brought a new level of storytelling and character development to the table. Both games received perfect scores for a reason – they are truly masterpieces in their own right.
Personally, I lean towards Breath of the Wild as my favorite. There’s just something about climbing to the top of a mountain and gliding down into the unknown that never gets old. But hey, to each their own! Whether you prefer one over the other or love them both equally, it’s clear that the Zelda series continues to deliver unforgettable gaming experiences. So, which side are you on?
