Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom are getting the same treatment with faster load times, enhanced resolution, and better frame rates. That’s along with a new feature with the Nintendo Switch app that helps players navigate to various locations, like that difficult-to-find shrine or hidden Korok, and will even feature commentary from Princess Zelda herself that was not part of the original games.
