Get ready for an enhanced gaming experience with The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition, set to launch exclusively on the Nintendo Switch 2 on June 5.

Let's dive into the details.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition

You can find The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition at various retailers:

Get it at Target - $79.99
Get it at Walmart - $79.00
Get it at GameStop - $79.99

You might notice that the price is higher than what you're used to for video games. This is because Nintendo has adopted a variable pricing strategy for its Switch 2 titles. The original game was priced at $69.99, and with the Switch 2 enhancements, Nintendo has added an extra $10. While this pricing isn't ideal, it's what you'll need to consider when purchasing.

Upgrade Pack Is Also Available Separately

This version of the game includes the original Switch game along with the Switch 2 Edition upgrade pack. If you already own the original game for the Switch, you can buy the upgrade pack separately for just $10, allowing you to save some money.

Upgrade Pack Is Free with Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack

If you're a proud owner of Tears of the Kingdom and a Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack member, you're in luck! The upgrade to the Switch 2 Edition comes at no extra cost, included with your subscription.

What is The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition?

Simply put, the game looks and runs better on the Nintendo Switch 2 than it ever did on the original Switch.

From our original 10/10 review of Tears of the Kingdom: "The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is an unfathomable follow-up to one of the greatest games ever made, somehow improving upon it in nearly every way – be that with simple quality-of-life improvements, a genuinely exciting story, or wildly creative new building mechanics that make you rethink what is possible. It both revamps old ground and introduces vast new areas so immense it somehow makes me wonder if Breath of the Wild was actually all that big, with an almost alarming number of tasks to complete, mysteries to discover, and delightful distractions to keep you from ever reaching that place you naively thought you were headed. Nintendo has followed up a triumph with a triumph, expanding and evolving a world that already felt full beyond expectation and raising the bar ever higher into the clouds."
