The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Review!!

I am particularly thrilled to write a review on this amazing and arguably the most popular open-world game ever. I've virtually played all of its previous versions available. I kept wondering and hoping when a new version was soon going to be released. Thankfully they definitely did not disappoint.

In The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Zelda awakens from a deep sleep and a very mysterious voice from nowhere guides him to discover what has become of the ruined Kingdom of Hyrule. He then meets an old man, who turns out to be the spirit of the deceased King of Hyrule. Zelda later learns from the King that some 100 years ago, a great evil known as the Calamity Ganon rose up and laid waste to the kingdom of Hyrule and its people. 

Unable to remain completely defeated, Ganon was sealed within Hyrule Castle, while the ruins of the land were ravaged by nature over time. Although trapped, Ganon has grown in power, and Zelda must defeat it before it breaks free once more and destroys the whole world.

After escaping the borders of the Great Plateau, Zelda is encouraged to meet with the wise Sheikah elder Impa and learn about the Guardians and Divine Beasts. About 10,000 years earlier these machines were created and successfully used by another Hero and another Princess to defeat the Calamity. But throughout the ages, knowledge about the ancient technology was lost until excavations in the Hyrule kingdom brought them to light once more, coinciding with the much anticipated return of Ganon a hundred years ago.

The Guardians were reactivated and four Champions were chosen to control the Divine Beasts. The Zora princess Mipha, the Goron warrior Daruk, the Gerudo chief, Urbosa, and finally the Rito archer Revali. All the while, Princess Zelda was unsuccessfully trying to gain access to her own prophesied powers, accompanied on her quests by her knight, the Hylian Champion Link.

When the Calamity Ganon eventually attacked, it devastated the Kingdom of Hyrule by taking control of the ancient machines and turning them against the Hyruleans. As a last remedy, Zelda was able to place the gravely wounded Link in the Shrine of Resurrection and use her awoken sealing powers to trap herself with Ganon in Hyrule Castle.
