Pokemon Company Rep - Pokemon Sword/Shield’s Wild Area estimated size is two BOTW regions | Nintendo Switch News | NintendoReporters

 [![Pokemon Company Rep – Pokemon Sword/Shield’s Wild Area estimated size is two BOTW regions](https://www.nintendoreporters.com/storage/files/pokemon-company-rep-pokemon-swordshields-wild-area-estimated-size-is-two-botw-regions.png "Pokemon Company Rep – Pokemon Sword/Shield’s Wild Area estimated size is two BOTW regions")](https://www.nintendoreporters.com/storage/files/pokemon-company-rep-pokemon-swordshields-wild-area-estimated-size-is-two-botw-regions.png)Various outlets are posting their hands on impressions for the first few hours of Pokemon Sword and Shield.

In an article on the preview posted by **Metro**, the Pokemon representative in attendance mentioned an interesting detail about the game’s Wild Area.

## [](#comparing-it-to-breath-of-the-wild)Comparing it to Breath of the Wild

Apparently, it is estimated to be about the size of two regions from The Legend Of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. For some, this may sound like quite a bold claim as Breath Of The Wild is well known for having a massive and interesting open world to explore.

That said, combined with the previously revealed Wild Area map, it doesn’t seem all that farfetched (yeah pun intended) for this comparison to be accurate

Are you ready to go on a new Pokemon adventure? We sure as hell are!
