Nintendo hasn’t lost its touch. six years later The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the WildConsidered by many to be one of the best episodes in the saga, the Japanese giant returns with its sequel, launched to great fanfare on May 12.
And that’s it The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom he won his bet with those who were able to test it before its release. On the multiplayer set, at Tech&Co, content creator Julien Chièze sums up this new opus with one word: “breakneck”.
And finally he is not disappointed: “It is a game that will be extremely customizable” since the possibilities are numerous.
The same story for Maxime Claudel, video game journalist for Numerama, present on the multiplayer set. “It’s ultra-dense,” he confirms, again acknowledging Nintendo’s talent “to reinvent itself.” On the other side of the coin, the game is “a little less accessible” according to him, especially for those who flee from complexity.

But the real drawback was known in advance: “technically, it’s not up to par,” stresses Maxime Claudel. The Switch, already slow and frankly aging, does not pay homage to the saga in terms of graphics.
This is also the general feeling of the reviews that come out this Thursday, a few hours after the official launch.
Same story for GameSpot. “Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom It is a canvas for your own creativity, a book for writing your own stories, a world for creating your own legends.”
“If you’ve been a fan of the show and its characters for a long time, it’s worth spending every second there to witness the final sequence of events and challenges.” Washington Post.
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom promises to be the box of the year 2023. Its predecessor has sold close to 30 million copies. Good news in the offing for Nintendo, which has yet to announce the console that will succeed the Switch.
