As someone who owns and has played this game … you are definitely missing out if you don’t. You’ll find great joy in learning the

new game

mechanics and diving into the plot—literally, you’re skydiving in this game. You don’t even need to play

Breath of the Wild

Ganon is the god; Ganondorf is Ganon in human form. You’re welcome.

Of course, you’ll need a Switch console to play the game. For bang for your buck, we prefer the OG model over the Switch Lite or

Tears of the Kingdom

to avoid shedding tears of frustration.

Here are other gaming goodies on sale, and it’s not a secret to everybody:
