Critical reception has been enthusiastic following its launch.

As reviewed by Nintendo Life, "With Zonai devices to experiment with, an expansive character roster, a multitude of Sync Strikes, and a visually impressive recreation of early Hyrule, this installment delivers a dream experience for hack-and-slash and Zelda fans alike.
