Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition

Those who may have only played one of the 3DS or Wii U versions would also be making a very safe bet in this case, but ultimately, this is just a solid choice for any party that is interested in seeing Link and friends (and foes) kick all kinds of ass across what is essentially a love-letter to fans of the series. Popular locations, iconic songs and a truckload of things to see and do make this one title that is going to keep you going well until the next Zelda game comes out, and then some.

It's an older release and the price tag is a little steep, but Hyrule Warriors is pitch-perfect musou gameplay with a heaping handful of Zelda fanservice. The former is still the most important part though, so you need to be a fan of musou titles to really get the most out of this game. If you are a fan though, Hyrule Warriors is one of the better entries and it runs well on Switch.

Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition is just that, the very best edition of the title that has been released. It offers the most content, and a wonderful quality of life changes that make it easily accessible for new or returning players.

Overall, Hyrule Warriors Definitive Edition offers up a lot of content and does a great job of compelling players to unlock more of it. As long as everyone knows what they’re getting into though I would definitely recommend this game to fans of the Dynasty Warriors franchise regardless of their familiarity with Zelda. I’d also give a thumbs up to fans of the Zelda games that are into arcade-style action every now and again.

As for the people out there like me who’ve passed on this franchise before, I had enough fun with Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition that I can recommend it as a fun guilty pleasure if you’ve got some extra coin but it’s not a must play experience. Just like the Fast and the Furious, there are people out there that enjoy fast-paced outlandish action, and others like me who enjoyed the one I saw but aren’t interested in seeing any more.

Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition is a good-quality port of the Wii U game, but outside of much more stable performance and better local co-op it doesn’t add enough new content to make replaying the story mode interesting again if you’ve already tried it. Luckily, the Adventure Mode maps and 16 of the 31 unlockable characters are available from the start.

All told, Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition is a great time-sink game, featuring mindless but fun action gameplay that offers up the potential for dozens - if not hundreds - of hours of content. Though it certainly feels like a game that’s too bloated in places, it manages to balance the Zelda and Dynasty Warriors elements well.

All in all, I am happy that I played through Hyrule Warriors again. The experience is a lot of fun, and the scenarios are incredibly diverse. While Legend Mode did take a hit, it is a small misstep all things considered.

If you're a fan of the Warriors format and Zelda games then Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition is an essential purchase. Those who have already played its predecessors to exhaustion, however, may find that it considerably less so. Sure, it has got nicer visuals and a couple of extra costumes, but that's about it. Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition is really meant for those who, like me, missed out on the previous versions. And for us, it's a fantastic package.

Hyrule Warriors marries the best aspects of the musuo genre with a love for Zelda and visual and performance improvements for a solid, if simple, romp through Hyrule.

If you're not into Zelda or think you'd find Mosou-style gameplay boring, just skip it. The game is highly repetitive and you simply won't be satisfied with your purchase if you're not into this style of action combat. If you're still curious, I suggest looking up a gameplay video or two and making an informed decision.

Can it get repetitive? Sure, but that’s the nature of Action RPGs like this – Warriors games are essentially 3rd-Person Diablos without the loot hunt. Playing coop is a joy, the Adventure Mode is an awesome addition, and raising your own fairy is surprisingly cute and meaningful. With all the content on display, it’s worth the full price of entry.

Thanks to its rich suite of characters, maps, modes, and more to enjoy alongside substantial improvements to the game’s technical performance, Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition earns its namesake as the best way to play one of the most unusual Zelda titles yet. While it may not stand up to the likes of last year’s Breath of the Wild (or many other Zelda titles for that matter), Hyrule Warriors is still an enjoyable, fast-paced, and frenetic way to play this remixed take on one of Nintendo’s oldest franchises, Musou-style.

There isn’t much else new here, and while it was fun diving back into my favorite game in the series, there simply isn’t enough here to warrant double-dipping. Most of the changes are quality-of-life features or things I simply found understated. The story mode is still a slog to get through. Adventure mode being expanded is about the best addition, but when most of the unlockable characters are already unlocked, it loses some of its appeal.

Those returning to the fray will likely be a little disappointed as there just isn't enough new content to rouse fresh excitement. For newcomers, though, Hyrule warriors is a delightful, bizarre outing that opens up the Zelda series, taking us places we've been before, just with thousands of monsters and awesome, screen-clearing magical attacks.

Zelda may have inspired one of the best Dynasty Warriors games to date but the end result is still well below average by any other standard.

It's called the Definitive Edition, and we can't dispute that, as this version of Hyrule Warriors doesn't just throw in some added bits and pieces, but really is the complete edition of the game. For the many who missed the boat when it first rolled around on the Wii U, this is the best way to experience the game now. It looks great, it plays great, and it has plenty of content through both the base game and the DLC packs included herein.

It might have taken a couple tries to get the formula right, but Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition is exemplary. Much can be said about the absurd amount of content, but what really takes this game to the next level are the various refinements. The item card shop alone makes a world of difference for dedicated adventurers.

It's endless fast-paced fun, with plenty of nods to classic Zelda to satisfy the fans. And it provides more than enough action for those who want a more intense experience than the main arm of the franchise usually offers. Some improvements to graphics, particularly pop-in, would have been nice, but the core experience is good enough to distract you from the handful of issues and keep you playing for hours.

Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition comes packed with a ton of content to sink your teeth into. The game is overflowing with fan-service that any Zelda fan can appreciate. With impressive cinematics, smooth combat, and loads of bonus content, this is best Hyrule Warriors has ever been.

Hyrule Warriors is jam packed full of content too, but each stage in the main Adventure Mode overstays its welcome by about 5-10 minutes. The longer you stay in a particular level, the quicker the fast-paced action begins to lose its charm. Perhaps that comes down to the repetitive nature of what constitutes the core Dynasty Warriors experience, and to be honest I wish I was more in love with this game.

Hyrule Warriors Definitive Edition is the best way to play the game, and is a good fit on the Switch. That said, this one’s definitely for newcomers rather than returning players, and the frame rate can still play up in moments where’s there’s just a bit too much going on.

A nivel de contenido es casi idéntico a Hyrule Warriors Legends, heredando modalidades como las Hadas o los personajes incluidos en dicha versión, solo que esta vez se añaden también los atuendos de Link y Zelda de Breath of the Wild. Si eres amante de los juegos de acción con las señas de Omega Force y te gustan las aventuras de Link y compañía, esta experiencia es una visita obligada al menos para ser probada.

Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition es un port sin apenas novedades, y que por tanto sólo deberían considerar aquellos que no lo jugaran en Wii y 3DS. Incluso en ese caso, deberán considerar que se trata de un musou, y como tal es un juego repetitivo. Pero si puedes pasarlo por alto, te encuentras ante un machacabotones interesante, fiel a la licencia Zelda y muy duradero, que puede serlo aún más si lo juegas en cooperativo local para dos jugadores, una opción muy interesante para los poseedores de Nintendo Switch.

Una buena historia, multitud de modos de juego en forma de Aventura, Desafíos y juego cooperativo. Mejoras de personajes a través de Insignias y Elixires así como un inabarcable arsenal que también podemos potenciar. Ya lo decimos en el título que da pie a este análisis, una Leyenda Infinita.

Si os atrae este universo o el género y nunca le habéis dado una oportunidad, este lanzamiento se convierte en una opción de compra tremendamente interesante y que os recomendamos casi con los ojos cerrados, siempre y cuando tengáis claro que aquí se viene únicamente a repartir mamporros sin descanso durante horas, horas y horas.

Immerhin profitiert man auf Switch von der besseren Hardware, die im gedockten Zustand mit einer höheren Auflösung (1080p) sowie erhöhter Zeichendistanz und mehr Gegnern auf dem Bildschirm punktet, so dass man sich intensiver wie ein Held inmitten einer feindlichen Übermacht fühlt.

Il s'agit d'un bon gros défouloir qui ne manque pas de finesse et qui s'avère très appréciable, surtout à deux joueurs. Toutefois, la redondance des phases, du gameplay et dans une certaine mesure du leveling ne convient pas à tous les joueurs. Si vous accrochez aux musô, ne passez pas à côté !

Pour ceux qui seraient passés à côté du jeu, qui ont grandi avec Zelda et qui ont la fibre du Musô dans le sang, allez-y, c'est très bas du front, mais c'est de la bonne. Cependant, si vous l'avez déjà, sur 3DS ou WiiU, le seul véritable atout de cette version, hormis sa technique supérieure et ses DLC, c'est son mode splitté sur table.

Encore un portage Switch, qui plus est venant d'un spécialiste du clonage. Mais à supposer que vous n'ayez jamais joué à Hyrule Warriors, cette Definitive Edition reste la meilleure porte d'entrée possible, grâce à une adaptation technique satisfaisante (enfin surtout en mode docké) et un contenu absolument gargantuesque.

Le jeu est bien plus fluide, même si certaines phases mettent à rude épreuve le framerate, et les divers effets visuels des attaques du jeu sont bien plus impressionnants qu’à l’époque. En revanche, les cut-scenes du jeu souffrent toujours de quelques ralentissements que l’on perçoit assez aisément. En clair, le jeu est bien plus net qu’avant, mais pour autant, vous n’aurez pas le droit à un bond graphique colossal, sauf si vous avez joué au jeu sur Nintendo 3DS.

Quem já jogou antes por mero interesse mas nunca chegou a pegar no jogo até à sua conclusão tem aqui a melhor versão a adquirir. Jogadores recém-chegados vão também encontrar algo para se divertirem e fãs da série Zelda vão adorar os pequenos toques dados a cada personagem e toda a dedicação na criação de um mundo onde todas estes personagens são unicas à sua maneira.

Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition costituisce un'occasione ghiotta sia per chi ha già giocato il titolo originale e vuole recuperare i contenuti rilasciati in seguito o quelli che, in precedenza, erano rimasti esclusivi della versione 3DS, sia per chi, invece, non ha mai messo le mani sul gioco.

Cadranno così, con segreto piacere, nella trappolona di questa Definitive Edition, vero e proprio attentato al tempo libero altrui, in grado di murare il fan in casa davanti al televisore per ore e ore. Prima di passare alla cassa bisogna però ficcarsi bene in testa un concetto, tutt’altro che assodato: Hyrule Warriors non è Zelda. È un musou.

Si tratta pur sempre di un musou, sia chiaro: chi disprezza il genere difficilmente cambierà idea, ma è raro imbattersi in una riedizione tanto completa e curata che non possiamo fare a meno di consigliare a chi ama The Legend of Zelda e cerca un titolo d'azione con cui intrattenersi a lungo.

Hyrule Warriors для Nintendo Switch получилась «игрой в себе». Если вы не поклонник жанра или Legend of Zelda, вам скорее всего будет скучно убивать однотипных врагов и проходить рутинные задания. Какой-либо мотивации делать это, если вам не хочется поиграть за любимых героев в новом для них жанре, нет.

De kracht van dit spel is dat het zo ontzettend veel inhoud en uitdagingen biedt, dat het spel bijna niet de kans krijgt om in herhaling te vallen. Wij hopen dat Hyrule Warriors Definitive Edition bij veel speler zal opvallen, want aangezien de cross-over nu eindelijk compleet is heeft het spel het meer dan verdiend. Zo zie je maar weer, driemaal is scheepsrecht!
