The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom still has about two weeks to go before launch, but spoilers and other leaks of that nature are likely to start today as a copy of the game has been found in the wild.
There’s been talk about the situation on places such as Reddit, 4chan, and Discord. Clips of the game have started to circulate online as well. Unfortunately for Nintendo, their titles tend to leak online before launch, so it wouldn’t be surprising to see many others gain access soon – and that leads to the further possibility of spoilers. Note that we will not be posting any unofficial content here.
