The Legend Of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom’s 70$ price tag, which is apparently not going to be the standard for all upcoming Nintendo releases, reflects the game’s deeply immersive experience, according to Nintendo of America’s president.
Speaking with the Associated Press about various topics, Nintendo of America’s president Doug Bowser commented on the game’s $70 price tag, saying that it reflects the full, deeply immersive experience fans can expect from the game. He also reiterated that it won’t be the standard price tag for Nintendo’s first-party games moving forward but also noted how this pricing model is fairly common in Europe and other parts of the world.
The Legend Of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom isn’t going to be the priciest entry in the series to date, but also a much bigger game than its predecessor in terms of file size. The new entry in the Zelda series will be 18.2 GB big, almost 4 GB bigger than Breath of the Wild. While big enough, it won’t be the Nintendo Switch’s biggest title, as a few other titles exceed the game’s size.
The Legend Of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom will release on Nintendo Switch worldwide on May 12th. We will keep you updated on the highly anticipated next entry in the Zelda series as soon as more come in on it, so stay tuned for all the latest news.
