Get ready, fans of Hyrule! The highly anticipated The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition is set to launch exclusively on the Nintendo Switch 2 on June 5. This edition not only brings the acclaimed original game to the new console but also introduces enhancements tailored for the Switch 2, along with the addition of Zelda Notes through the Nintendo Switch app. You can secure your copy now by preordering at Target. Dive in for all the exciting details.
Launching on June 5, you can grab this masterpiece for $69.99 at Target, or find it at Walmart for $69.00, and GameStop for $69.99. It's worth noting that Nintendo isn't offering any discounts on this title, even though it's an older game. You'll need to shell out full price for the original Switch game, plus an additional $10 for the Switch 2 upgrade. It might feel a bit steep, but the enhancements are worth considering.
This new edition includes the original Switch game, complemented by the Switch 2 Edition upgrade pack. If you already own the original game, you can opt to purchase the upgrade pack separately for just $10, a cost-effective way to experience the game's improvements on the new console.
For those who already possess Breath of the Wild and are members of the Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack, the upgrade comes at no extra cost. It's included in your subscription, providing a sweet perk amidst the rollout of the new console.
This package encompasses the full original Switch game, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, along with the Nintendo Switch 2 Edition upgrade pack. The upgrade promises enhanced performance, featuring faster frame rates, quicker load times, improved resolution, and refined textures. Essentially, the game looks and runs better on the Nintendo Switch 2 than ever before on the original Switch.
From our original review of Breath of the Wild: "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is a masterclass in open-world design and a watershed game that reinvents a 30-year-old franchise. It presents a wonderful sandbox full of mystery, dangling dozens upon dozens of tantalizing things in front of you that just beg to be explored. I’ve had so many adventures in Breath of the Wild, and each one has a unique story behind what led me to them, making them stories on top of stories. And even after I’ve spent more than 50 hours searching the far reaches of Hyrule, I still manage to come across things I haven’t seen before. I’ll easily spend 50 to 100 more trying to track down its fascinating moments."
