Switch 2 Doesn't Support Cloud Saves For Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom - GameSpot

🔍 Summary:

The new Switch 2 edition of “The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom” has been released without support for cloud saves, a feature that was available on the original Switch version. This limitation is specifically noted on the game’s store pages in the US and EU, although the Japanese store suggests that cloud saves are available with a Nintendo Switch Online subscription. This inconsistency has added to the confusion among gamers, especially since other Switch 2 games like “Kirby and the Forgotten Land” and “Metroid Prime 4: Beyond” continue to support cloud saves.

Further complicating matters, while players can transfer their existing Zelda game saves from the original Switch to the Switch 2, they cannot create new cloud saves on the Switch 2. This issue also affects “Super Mario Party Jamboree” on Switch 2, which similarly lacks cloud save support.

Despite these setbacks, the Switch 2 versions of the Zelda games do offer new features, such as the Zelda Notes app, which aids in locating shrines and Korok Seeds and tracking achievements. Nintendo has assured that players can still use their original Switch versions with all features intact, even after upgrading to the Switch 2 versions. However, the absence of cloud save support on some Switch 2 games raises questions about how progress can be synchronized back to the original Switch.
