[Console Games] The 18 Best Zelda Games for the Nintendo Switch, Ranked

[Depo -]

The Nintendo Switch may not have been a runaway success if it hadn't launched with the unassailable masterpiece that is The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. The game radically reworked Nintendo’s beloved, action-RPG series into a spectacular new form that honors the franchise's original spirit. Its sequel, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, provides an even grander open-world Hyrule to explore on land and in the sky.

However, Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom are far from the only Zelda games you can play on the Switch. Zelda is one of Nintendo’s oldest, most acclaimed, and most influential franchises. So, naturally, many games inspired by Zelda have found their way to the handheld/console hybrid. With The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom finally arriving (and, hopefully, Wind Waker HD and Twilight Princess HD coming in the near future), you might be inspired to play more Zelda and Zelda-adjacent games on your Switch. Now, no Zelda game is truly "bad," so no shade to Oceanhorn coming in last place. Instead, think of this list as going in order from "pretty good" to "greatest game of all time."
