Nintendo maintains full pricing for this re-release, requiring players to pay the original Switch game's price plus an additional $10 for Switch 2 enhancements - a decision that hasn't been well received by fans.

Standalone Upgrade Available

The complete package includes both the original Switch game and the Switch 2 enhancement pack. Existing owners can purchase just the $10 upgrade separately to save on costs.

Free for Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Members

Subscribers to Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack who already own Breath of the Wild receive the Switch 2 upgrade at no extra charge - a welcome benefit amid criticism of Nintendo's pricing strategies for the new console.

What's Included in the Switch 2 Edition?

This edition combines the original award-winning adventure with significant technical improvements for Switch 2: smoother performance with higher frame rates, reduced loading times, and enhanced visual fidelity through improved resolution and textures.

From our original review: "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild revolutionized open-world gaming, reinventing a legendary franchise through its masterful world design. The game presents an extraordinary sandbox filled with countless discoveries, each encounter organically leading to memorable stories within stories. After 50 hours of exploration, Hyrule continues to reveal fresh surprises, promising hundreds more hours of captivating adventure."
