The upcoming The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom game is one of the most highly-anticipated titles for the Nintendo Switch. Anticipating the hype for the game, Nintendo has announced a special edition version of their console featuring a unique design inspired by it.

Stylized in white, gold, and green, the $360 special edition console will be available for preorder on April 28.

The Special Edition Console: Replicating the Success of Breath of the Wild

Breath of the Wild, the predecessor of Tears of the Kingdom, came out in 2017 and has since become one of the most successful games in the franchise. Selling over 29 million copies, the game was a monumental success.

Players hope Tears of the Kingdom will replicate some of its predecessor's success, and the special edition console could be the perfect way to commemorate it. With fans eagerly waiting for the game's release, they will now have the opportunity to obtain a special edition console and a game that will likely continue the legacy of Breath of the Wild.

All this is happening in the backdrop of increased demand for Switch consoles which has recently disrupted shipments from Europe to the US. Fans of the Legend of Zelda should grab this special console edition before it runs out due to the high demand.
