The article on the magazine’s official website states that it has awarded the game their “joint highest review score ever”, pointing also to the Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D, who received the same score, only that it was, of course, a remake. For perspective, the score for the original Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time was a 95%, Legend of Zelda: Major’s Mask received a 94%, and Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, a 97% (They never reviewed The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker). The article concluded with a statement from the review, saying “It’s not something we say lightly, but the Zelda series really has never been this good.” Take this for what you will, but this should serve as a strong reminder for what we have to look forward to on November 20th.
