Rumors have been circulating regarding a new Nintendo Switch for a long time now. Many reports suggest that the sequel has entered production and is eyeing a 2024 release date. When you look at how no big games are launching on the Switch in the 2nd part of 2023, things start to make sense.
Even though they are only rumors as of now, this doesn’t stop people from speculating. A lot of people are predicting that The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom will be the last big launch on Nintendo Switch. Beyond this, there won’t be any first-party releases as Nintendo is shifting focus to the Switch successor.
We have no idea if this is true or not, but it has increased the hype for the new Zelda game even more. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is releasing 6 years after Breath of the Wild. Seeing how the prequel to Tears of the Kingdom was a launch title for the Switch, it does make sense to wrap things up with the sequel.
As a result, the excitement for the new entry in this already popular franchise has been lofty. Even the prospect of the title being $70 isn’t bringing down fans, which should tell you everything. Retailer GameStop is utilizing this fanfare in the best way possible and giving fans a peculiar prize.
If you pre-order The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom at GameStop, you will receive a plaque of wood. So, the video game retailer is essentially giving players Legend of Zelda-themed wood for pre-ordering. We have to say, that is certainly a unique offering.
By the looks of it, the plaque looks really good and features a tree with an eye on top of it. Considering how this is essentially free of cost, it is a really good deal for fans. You can get a free item while not spending double the money on The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Collector’s Edition.
Buyers will be able to redeem this wooden plaque by buying any edition of the Nintendo game. However, this offer is limited to just one per customer and is only available till supplies last. So, if you want to avail yourself of this opportunity, you need to act quickly.
Furthermore, you need to keep in mind that this offer can only be redeemed in stores. Players can order The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom online, but to obtain the plaque, you have to go to the nearest GameStop branch. To do this, you just need to print your order confirmation page and show it to the GameStop employee.
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom launches on May 12, 2023, around the world. As you know, only the Nintendo Switch will be able to run this upcoming RPG. Do you think it will be the last first-party game on the handheld? Tell us in the comments below.
