Pyro as Bill said:

None of them will be/are as revolutionary as BoTW.

The only other serious contender would be Super Mario Odyssey.

Wait....I am curious but what is so revolutionary about BoTW? I have not played it yet because I am waiting to buy the Switch. I mean from the reviews and gameplay I have seen it looks AMAZING. And I can't wait to play it but why do you say it is revolutionary? 

Also why would Super Mario Odyssey be the only  other serious contentder? Why would no other game be able to be one outside of it?

It's truly non-linear and embodies adventure and exploration.

Though climbing has been done before, and on the face of it BOTW's climbing looks overly simplified, it ends up being much more immersive. Despite being Kotaku, this is actually a decent article on the matter:
