Rise of the Tomb Raider vs The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
Rise of the Tomb Raider
Rise of the Tomb Raider lets you step into the shoes of the world's coolest female treasure hunter ever, Lara Croft, and set off on a brand-new thrilling adventure across Siberia in a race against a ruthless organization, the Trinity, to find the Lost City of Kitezh. As opposed to the older versions of the game, Lara will not only have to battle members of the Trinity but also the wildlife in the region so as to scavenge rare resources to craft new weapons and items. There are more ways for you to engage the enemy, including multiple forms of stealth-based takedowns that may remind you of the gameplay in games like Assassin's Creed, distractions and of course, the Rambo-styled, all-out frontal attack.Being a treasure hunter, you'll also get to explore a wide variety of tombs, each filled with intriguing puzzles, well-hidden traps and a ton of secrets to uncover. If you get the 20 Year Celebration version, you will also get bonus content like Blood Ties which will let you explore Croft Manor and Lara's Nightmare that will pit you against hordes of zombies as well as several co-op game modes like the Co-op Endurance mode which will let you test your survival skills with a friend.

Not to mention, if you're the sort who's really particular about the graphics, you might want to grab this game instead. It's the latest, and hence, the most graphically-pleasing Tomb Raider game, you'll get!
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild brings you a whole new and groundbreaking adventure where you are free to explore the wild, ruined kingdom of Hyrule whichever way you like, though for some places, you may need to equip Link with the appropriate outfits so he can brave the elements in that region. There are tons of Shrines of Trials scattered across the world for you to find, but be careful, there are plenty of dangers that lurk in the wilderness as well and you'd be wise to be constantly vigilant. Interestingly, with so many changes in place, the game still retains the core of a Legend of Zelda game where you'll get to explore the catacombs within these Shrines and possibly emerge with special items and other equally fantastic rewards.The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is definitely a brilliant and somewhat revolutionary addition to the renowned Legend of Zelda game franchise. If you're a fan of the series, you'll want to buy it... like right now.
