Nintendo will improve The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom for Switch 2 and offer gamers a lot of exciting new features
It's already known that Switch 2 will feature many improved versions of Nintendo and third-party games. However, we can't ignore the two games that were the highest rated games on the first Switch - The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.
Here's What We Know
The Japanese company said that these games will feature increased resolution and frame rate on the Nintendo Switch 2, as well as support for HDR mode.
The developer has stated that it has improved the graphics of some elements, but did not specify which ones, also the technical details of the ports remain unknown, but we can assume that Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom can be run in stationary mode in resolutions up to 4K at 60FPS.
The games will also feature several gameplay innovations, for example, gamers will get a voice-activated "GPS navigator", which will simplify navigation on the terrain, and also with the help of QR codes it will be possible to share their buildings and items with friends.
On Switch 2 games will load faster, and saves of original versions will be compatible with "remasters". In addition, gamers will be able to create a separate slot with saves so they don't get mixed up. The Nintendo App on Switch 2 will feature Zelda themed "Notes" (Zelda Notes) and voice prompts.
Unfortunately, the enhanced versions of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom won't be available for free - the update will be paid for or available to Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack subscribers. The cost of this service has not yet been specified.
The games will be available on the console's release date of 5 June.
