The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is one of the most anticipated games of 2023. It seems like Nintendo accidentally revealed the price in the eShop and now my wallet is laughing at me...
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is releasing soon, and every Zelda fan is thinking about it constantly. TOTK will be the sequel to Breath of the Wild , which was already released in 2017 but is still a hit among Zelda games. The hype around this upcoming sequel is huge and getting bigger by the day. After hints of a pre-order date have already surfaced, the price has now also been leaked. And it's a bit of a surprise.

Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Price Leaked
The hype around Zelda TOTK is building up. We have been waiting for this game for a few years, and now things are starting to get serious. Nintendo has recently, 'by mistake', revealed the eShop price.
Confirmed: Next Nintendo Direct Incoming
Nintendo incorrectly listed the upcoming game Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom with a $69.99 price tag in the eShop and many fans discovered it before they even had a chance of undoing it. Although we can probably be happy to finally have more info on the new Zelda game, the price is still higher than expected, ugh...
Before the leak, pre-orders were already available on Amazon, but now they have taken down the offer completely. It looks like Nintendo and Amazon have revealed some things a little too early. What a coincidence, that all this happens just a few hours before the next Nintendo Direct livestream launches.
Finally: New Zelda Details Will Be Revealed Today
In general, video games are becoming more and more expensive and the prices for development have skyrocketed over the last two decades. Until recently it seemed like Nintendo would at least stop at the $60 mark, but now it looks like their prices will align with Sony's and Microsoft's. They just know that we will buy the game anyway, at any price.
