The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition is an adventure game set in Hyrule and is the sequel to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Link must discover the origins of the mysterious gloom plaguing the kingdom and fight back against the malevolent forces that threaten it. This edition is enhanced for the Nintendo Switch 2 system, with improved framerates, faster load times, and enhanced resolution and textures.
Link uses four abilities to explore and solve problems. Ultrahand picks up, moves and rotates objects and attaches them together to make bridges, vehicles and more. Fuse attaches objects to Link's weapon, shield or arrow to increase durability, damage, or add a new effect. Ascend lets Link pass through solid terrain, and Recall reverses an object's movement.
The Switch 2 Edition includes ZELDA NOTES, a game-specific service in the Nintendo Switch app for compatible smart devices. It offers voice-assisted navigation to find shrines and Koroks, and Voice Memories of Princess Zelda and other characters that were not in the original game. It also provides daily in-game bonuses, comparison of play data with players worldwide, in-game photo decoration for social media, and item transfer to other players by QR Code. A Nintendo Switch Online membership is not required to use ZELDA NOTES.
