We’re just a few weeks away from The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom release and it looks like Nintendo has updated the file size again on the game’s official page.
It’s no longer the “largest” digital release on the system, with the Japanese video game company apparently reducing it from around 18GB to roughly 16GB. The eShop listings in the US, Japan and other regions say it will cost approx 15.9GB of free space.
Of course, this could change between now and the game’s release next month May 12th.
Compared to Link’s original Switch outing The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (coming in 14.4GB), Tears of the Kingdom is still officially the bigger game of the two. Overall, it’s still quite a large file size, with other recent games like Xenoblade Chronicles 3 only taking up around 14GB.
Tears of the Kingdom will also increase by $10 – raising it to $69.99 USD (or regional equivalent). Nintendo says it won’t make it a trend, and it’s decided on a case-by-case basis. This time, you will definitely get your money’s worth.
