The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom sequel to Breath of the Wild is one of several games scheduled for release in 2023, although a few are eagerly awaited. It is anticipated to be one of Nintendo's final significant first-party releases for the Switch before the launch of a new system and here is how you can buy the game for less than $70.

Tears of the Kingdom, sadly, is also the first Nintendo game to see a price increase. Tears of the Kingdom will start at $70 in contrast to most first-party titles for the Switch often topping out around the $60 price range. You'll be looking at much more if you decide to purchase the title in a collector's edition.

How to buy the game for less than $70

There is a way to lower the cost of Tears of the Kingdom if you want to play it but keep putting it off because of the price increase. Nintendo Switch Game Vouchers may be bought by those who have a Nintendo Online membership. You can preorder (or buy) Tears of the Kingdom for $99.98, and you'll also receive two vouchers that can be used to purchase a range of other Switch titles.

Even while the upfront cost will be higher, you'll be able to purchase two games for around $100, saving $20 on Tears of the Kingdom and $10 on a different first-party title of your choosing. However, you can only use these coupons for digital downloads, so make sure your console has adequate room before using them.



 

Nintendo's only first-party game to cost $69.99

Not everyone was happy when it was originally disclosed that Tears of the Kingdom will be the first Nintendo Switch game to cost $70. Current-generation consoles like the PS5 and Xbox Series X/S frequently offer titles at that price point, so the idea is not new. However, most Switch gamers are aware that these rival platforms frequently have improved visuals to justify the price rise. Even though the shift had probably been anticipated for some time, not everyone was happy about the prospect of spending $70 for the new game.
