While I'm not aware of any titles that I would refer to as "clones", the question isn't far-fetched:

Multiple games have since cited Breath of the Wild as an influence. These include Genshin Impact, Ghost of Tsushima, Immortals Fenyx Rising, Halo Infinite, Elden Ring, Pokémon Legends: Arceus, and Horizon Forbidden West.

Some indie titles I'd throw in, that clearly took inspiration:

  • A Short Hike
  • Lil Gator Game
  • Tchia
