It sounds like the upcoming Zelda game TearsoftheKingdom could be one of the last major first-party releases for Nintendo Switch.
It sounds like Nintendo could be planning to wind down its support for the Switch following the release of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Currently, Nintendo has a pretty decent lineup of games set to land on Switch in 2023 which includes Fire Emblem Engage, Pikmin 4, and Octopath Traveler 2. Above all other releases, though, Tears of the Kingdom will almost certainly be the Switch's killer app in the coming year.
According to gaming industry reporter Andy Robinson, Nintendo may not have another major first-party game to release in 2023 following the launch of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Although Robinson stressed that this was merely his own prediction, he stated that one reason why Nintendo might look to slow down with releases on Switch is because it could be preparing to unveil or release new hardware in 2024.
In some ways, it would be incredibly appropriate for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom to be the Switch's swan song given that Breath of the Wild is what helped get the console off to a hot start. Whether or not this sequel can live up to its predecessor is something that remains to be seen, but Nintendo is definitely being quite ambitious with Tears of the Kingdom as it's one of the only Zelda games in history that will serve as a direct sequel.
If you didn't already have the date circled on your calendar, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is set to release later this year on May 12th. When it does finally hit store shelves, it will be playable across Nintendo Switch, Switch Lite, and Switch OLED platforms. 0commentsHow do you think 2023 will end up playing out for the Nintendo Switch?
