Special edition images The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom An OLED mockup of the Nintendo Switch has surfaced online, with images of a Zelda-themed dock and Joy-Con set, along with the box.
Apparently found on China’s Tieba forum and posted on family board by user Kysen (thank, My Nintendo News), they show a pair of yellow Joy-Con with green (left) and white (right) textures from the game and white back panels to match the dock. The dock has similar gold accents adorned the front, with the back of the panel (black) featuring delicate embossed textures similar to those found on other special edition OLED panel.
Here’s the box — you can find more photos at the links above:
It remains unclear whether these images are legitimate or elaborate fakes, although they look impressively realistic (and perhaps a bit boring).
The game launches on May 12, 2023, and if this is the real McCoy, we’re assuming this Switch special will launch around that time or within a few weeks before that.
Breath of the Wild Of course, launched alongside the original Switch in 2017, although a special edition Zelda Joy-Con pair was released when Skyward Sword HD Released back in 2021.
A few days ago, some leaked marketing materials for the game showed Nintendo Switch Online label, leading to speculation that the game may include some sort of online functionality or a multiplayer component. However, most likely the NSO label has something to do with cloud storage, so don’t get your hopes up.
