The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition is a downloadable game built exclusively for the Nintendo Switch 2 system. It delivers the full open-world journey across Hyrule with performance enhancements that take advantage of the new hardware. Players redeem a digital code on Nintendo eShop to add the title to their library.

For explorers wanting the upgraded experience

This edition suits anyone who wants to revisit or discover Hyrule with smoother framerates, faster load times, enhanced resolution, improved textures and HDR support on Nintendo Switch 2. It also includes ZELDA NOTES, a game-specific companion service on the Nintendo Switch app that does not require a Nintendo Switch Online membership. Buyers who need a physical cartridge or who plan to play on the original Nintendo Switch should look at other options.

Exclusive to Nintendo Switch 2

The single specification that decides compatibility is the platform requirement: this downloadable version runs only on Nintendo Switch 2. A Nintendo Account, persistent internet connection and a compatible smart device are needed to redeem the code and use ZELDA NOTES. 196742133585
