An epic adventure across the land and skies of Hyrule awaits in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom for Nintendo Switch. The adventure is yours to create in a world fueled by your imagination. In this sequel to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, you’ll decide your own path through the sprawling landscapes of Hyrule and the mysterious islands floating in the vast skies above. Can you harness the power of Link’s new abilities to fight back against the malevolent forces that threaten the kingdom?

  • Ultrahand: Using the new Ultrahand ability, Link can pick up, move, and rotate almost any object, and can even attach objects together to create bridges, vehicles, and more!
  • Fuse: Magically fuse almost any object to Link’s current weapon, shield, or arrow to increase durability, damage, or even add a new effect. Experiment with lots of different combinations to come up with surprising, and sometimes hilarious, results!
  • Ascend: Add a new dimension to your exploration with Ascend, which gives Link the ability to pass through solid objects above him. Rise up through ceilings, hillsides, and even certain enemies to create seemingly impossible shortcuts.
  • Recall: Use Recall to make objects in motion move backward through time, letting Link ride fallen boulders skyward, recover thrown weapons, or send projectiles back where they came from.

Q: How does the new Ultrahand ability work?

A: Ultrahand lets Link pick up, move, and rotate almost any object, and he can even attach objects together to create bridges, vehicles, and more!

Q: How does the Recall ability change gameplay?

A: Recall allows Link to make objects in motion move backward through time. He can ride fallen boulders upward, recover thrown weapons, or send projectiles back.

Q: Which gaming platforms is this game compatible with?

A: This game is compatible with the Nintendo Switch - OLED Model.

Q: What kind of adventure is this game?

A: This game is an epic adventure across the land and skies of Hyrule.

Q: Can you tell me about the Ascend ability?

A: Ascend allows Link to pass through solid objects above him, like ceilings, hillsides, and even some enemies, to create shortcuts.

Q: What is the Fuse ability?

A: Fuse lets you magically fuse almost any object to Link's weapon, shield, or arrow to enhance them. This can increase durability, damage, or even add a new effect.

Q: Will this game be delivered on the release date? Or will it be shipped on the release date and delivered at a later date?

A: From my experiences preordering from Best Buy, they deliver on the date it's released. One time it was delayed once by a day due to bad weather, but they've been very consistent from my experiences.

Q: Do unicorns really fly? I don’t think it’s possible because most don’t have wings and the ones that do are very small.

A: It’s not technically flying, more like a combination of being really gassy and controlled falling. The real question is how much do unicorn farts contribute to global warming... Short answer is that it all depends on how much rainbow glitter they shart out as they zoom through the magic kingdom. Unicorn glitter sharts smell like Juicy Fruit gum BTW.
