Woot! (owned by Amazon) is offering The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom for Nintendo Switch for only $39.99 after you apply a $10 off promo code “ZELDAWELCOME” during checkout. Amazon Prime members get free shipping, otherwise there is a $6 flat fee. This is the best price we’ve seen for this amazing game, and we doubt it will go lower on Black Friday.
You’ll be getting a physical copy, which also includes a 90-day Woot! warranty. Woot! mentions that copies may or may not be imported, but all Nintendo Switch games are region-free so you’ll be able to play the game regardless. You won’t have to worry about language either since that setting is determined by your Switch console. I picked up a copy of Echoes of Wisdom from Woot’s previous deal, and it was indeed a PEGI copy, but it was brand new and sealed and worked perfectly fine on my US Switch console.
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom for $39.99
Tears of the Kingdom initially retailed for $59.99 several months before its March 2023 release date. However, Nintendo arbitrarily decided to raise the price to $69.99 at launch, making it the most expensive Switch game at the time (not counting bundled games like Ring Fit or Mario Kart Home Circuit). Nowadays, this game tends to sell for around $60, but very rarely have I seen the game drop down to the golden $39.99 price point.
Check out IGN’s The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom review and see why this game earned an “Masterpiece” 10/10 score. In it, Tom Marks writes:
“The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is an unfathomable follow-up to one of the greatest games ever made, somehow improving upon it in nearly every way – be that with simple quality-of-life improvements, a genuinely exciting story, or wildly creative new building mechanics that make you rethink what is possible. It both revamps old ground and introduces vast new areas so immense it somehow makes me wonder if Breath of the Wild was actually all that big, with an almost alarming number of tasks to complete, mysteries to discover, and delightful distractions to keep you from ever reaching that place you naively thought you were headed. Nintendo has followed up a triumph with a triumph, expanding and evolving a world that already felt full beyond expectation and raising the bar ever higher into the clouds.”
