Zelda Fans Are Worried Tears of the Kingdom’s Switch 2 Version Won’t Support Cloud Saves

The Nintendo Switch 2 is set to get special enhanced versions of several Switch 1 games, including The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. A newly spotted disclaimer has fans worrying some games, or at least one game, won’t support Nintendo’s cloud save functionality as they’d hope.

Over the last day or so, users have been noticing that Nintendo’s pages for Tears of the Kingdom’s Switch 2 edition carries the following disclaimer: “Please note: this software does not support the Nintendo Switch Online paid membership’s Save Data Cloud backup feature.”

Per ResetEra, the page for The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild – Switch 2 Edition also apparently carried this disclaimer at one point, as did Super Mario Party Jamboree – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Jamboree TV.

Though it’s since disappeared from those pages, the Tears of the Kingdom still has the disclaimer as of this writing. The Japanese page though, per Eurogamer via machine translation, does not carry the same disclaimer; only the US and EU pages seem to be showing it.

IGN has reached out to Nintendo for clarification on the matter.

If this holds true, this could create some confusing scenarios for players. Nintendo’s cloud save option for NSO members is handy, for one. It makes carrying games across systems, or juggling storage space for games without losing your saved progress, a little less stres-inducing.

Actually importing a save file from the original Switch to the Switch 2 Edition of Tears of the Kingdom does seem to still work. The Nintendo page noted an additional save slot for the Switch 2 Edition, where one can start a brand-new journey or “continue a previous one with your existing save data.” Nintendo does note that save data created in the second save data slot cannot be trasnferred to the Nintendo Switch 1 version of Tears of the Kingdom.

It’s a confusing situation that can possibly lead to some stress, as players would likely not want to lose a save file they’ve dumped many, many hours into when upgrading versions. Hopefully, this gets cleared up soon.

The Switch 2 Edition does have a few reasons for prospective Switch 2 owners to upgrade, including the Zelda Notes app, which comes packed with helpful guiding content, lore, and even some potential equipment repair options.
