Forget everything you know about The Legend of Zelda. Step into a new world full of adventure and discovery in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, an innovative new game in the beloved series. After a 100-year slumber, Link awakens alone in a world he no longer remembers. Now, the legendary hero must explore a vast and dangerous land to regain his memories before Hyrule is lost forever. Link embarks on a quest for answers, relying solely on what he finds along the way to survive. Explore the landscape of Hyrule at your own pace. Climb towers and peaks in search of new objectives. Use the mysterious Sheikah Slate to view a map of Hyrule and discover interesting locations. With skill and ingenuity, Link can find and use many different weapons in combat. However, weapons break over time, so he should always keep an eye out for new ones. Fighting involves more than just having a good weapon; Link will also need to learn to perform various attacks—such as high shots with the bow or using explosives—if he wants to survive in the long run. Hunt wild animals, gather fruits and vegetables, or raid enemy camps to find food so Link doesn't go hungry. You can even learn recipes. New recipes not only provide variety for our hero but can also heal Link or enhance his abilities. Link has access to many different outfits that protect him from environmental effects and attacks depending on their properties. From cold-weather gear to armor, everything is represented—but be careful: during a storm, Link should not wear metal, as it attracts lightning.
