Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom's Switch 2 Edition Breaks One Promise in the Best Way
Nintendo is bringing The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom to the Switch 2 as a launch title, and this upgraded re-release is shaping up to be the definitive version of the 2023 hit. Originally a massive success on the original Switch, Tears of the Kingdom built on the open-world design of Breath of the Wild with a bigger focus on creativity and player-driven mechanics. The new version takes advantage of the Switch 2’s upgraded hardware, adding 4K visuals, 60 FPS performance in docked mode, HDR support, and even a second save slot—letting returning players restart without wiping their progress.
