With the September 2022 Nintendo Direct, we finally know the official name for Breath of the Wild 2 as well as its release date. Get ready to step into Link's shoes again when The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom releases on May 12, 2023.
As usual, it's up to Link and Zelda to save the world. Only this time, Link will acquire some new abilities courtesy of his new glowing hand and some tools he picks up along the way. He'll also take a trip into the clouds and explore a number of floating islands. We might just need a bigger microSD card depending on how big this game is.
