The Nintendo Switch is home to some truly special games, and it goes without saying that The Legend Of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD is bound to improve this library even further. A classic Zelda title that was definitely beloved by many, Skyward Sword is a beautiful adventure and fans can’t wait to try out this classic title in its best available version on the Switch.
That being said, one has to admit that there’s a fair bit of time before fans will be able to get their hands on this remaster. So, it’s only a given that some games would be required to pass the time until Skyward Sword is released in July. So, keeping this in mind, here are ten games that should definitely keep gamers busy until the earliest story in The Legend of Zelda timeline hits store shelves.
10 Astral Chain
Platinum Games have been consistently delivering excellence across the board when it comes to its action titles, and Astral Chain is no exception to this rule.
The combat and level design are truly sublime in their own right, but Astral Chain manages to take things up a notch by featuring a brilliant story as well. All these elements combine to form what is easily one of the better games on the Switch that no fan of action games should miss out on.
9 Genshin Impact
The joke of Genshin Impact being extremely similar to Breath of the Wild is something that has been mentioned time and time again. However, gamers who’ve managed to look past these comparisons and tried this game out have found themselves experiencing a vastly enjoyable title.
The open-world of Genshin Impact certainly does justice to its inspiration, featuring impressive locales and interesting landmarks that are bound to be quite a joy to explore indeed.
8 Hyper Light Drifter — Special Edition
There are many people who consider Hyper Light Drifter to be heavily inspired by The Legend of Zelda series, coupled with challenging combat that is bound to be quite a treat to play through indeed.
The beautiful pixel art of Hyper Light Drifter places it in a league of its own, coupled with a beautiful atmosphere that will definitely keep fans hooked up until the very end.
7 Okami HD
If players want to try out a title that feels familiar yet unique at the same time, then Okami is their best bet. This beautiful and off-the-wall adventure title was heavily inspired by The Legend of Zelda series, and this shows in most aspects of its gameplay.
However, it’s the Celestial Brush that ends up adding a whole new layer of depth to the gameplay, allowing for a memorable experience that will definitely satisfy any fan of The Legend of Zelda series.
6 Darksiders: Warmastered Edition
Darksiders is a franchise that has slowly but surely gained its fair share of fans over time, with more and more players understanding what makes this game so special in the eyes of many games.
With the first game receiving a remaster that was very much due for quite some time, there’s no better time for Nintendo Switch users to get into a quality franchise that features some top-notch gameplay and world-building.
5 Dark Souls Remastered
Dark Souls is considered by many to be one of the most important games ever released, and for good reason. During a time when the AAA market was oversaturated with easy games that always held the hand of gamers at every turn, Dark Souls released to great fanfare mainly due to its tendency of treating players like halfway-competent gamers.
With the release of Dark Souls Remastered on the Switch, a new batch of games can now finally experience the title that managed to raise the name of From Software and Hidetaka Miyazaki to new heights. The exploration and combat present in this game is second to none, and will certainly please gamers to no end.
4 The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
A big part of what makes Skyward Sword — and most Zelda games, for that matter — such a special title is that the exploration in this game is wondrous in every sense of the word.
So, it only goes without saying that people who loved this sense of exploration will be more than happy with The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim — an RPG that is considered by many to be one of the greatest video games of all time… and for good reason. The massive world of Skyrim coupled with some truly interesting locales make for a truly sublime gaming experience.
3 Hyrule Warriors: Age Of Calamity
Of course, the one thing that Zelda fans would want to play while waiting for Skyward Sword HD… are more games in the Zelda universe! There are several titles like this on the Switch, with Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity being a notable spin-off that should satiate any fans of Breath of the Wild.
While the performance issues of this game on the Switch can definitely prove to be quite irritating at times, there’s no denying the fact that the game itself is certainly quite enjoyable in its own right. The Dynasty Warriors gameplay is still quite satisfying and will keep players occupied for quite some time indeed.
2 The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening
The Game Boy was home to a Zelda title that most people considered to be a brilliant title for a myriad of reasons. However, given the age of the console and the game itself — being released in 1993, after all — it was evident that this title was showing its age quite a bit.
This is exactly what makes the Link’s Awakening remake such a brilliant gem — given the fact that the original title was already solid enough from a gameplay standpoint, a boost to the game’s graphics was all that was required to make the game all the more memorable.
1 The Legend of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild
Of course, it would be impossible to talk about games that one can play in the same vein as Skyward Sword without mentioning the absolute masterpiece that is Breath of the Wild.
This game has been praised across the board, and for good reason — Breath of the Wild is one of the most refreshing open-world experiences of all time, revitalizing the Zelda genre and reinventing it to allow a whole host of gamers to enjoy this title once again.
