The Nintendo Switch 2 The Legend of Zelda 40th Anniversary Edition system officially launches on October 29, 2026, but we're expecting pre-orders to go live imminently. Customers in Australia can already place one, suggesting
that other regions will follow suit over the next few days.

No, the Nintendo Switch 2 The Legend of Zelda 40th Anniversary Edition system does not come with a game. If you want a copy of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time , you will need to buy it seperately. Is the Nintendo Switch
2 The Legend of Zelda 40th Anniversary Edition system worth it?

Whether any special edition Nintendo system is worth it comes down to two key factors: if you already own the system, and if you're a huge fan of the property the special edition is tying in with.

In this instance, if you don't have a Nintendo Switch 2 and want to get one anyway, then this The Legend of Zelda 40th Anniversary Edition is likely a good choice. If you like how it looks and don't mind paying a little bit more for that, then there's no real reason not to pick it up instead of the
regular one.

If you already have a Nintendo Switch 2, on the other hand, it becomes a much more difficult question. If you're a massive Zelda fan, then I can see a situation where you would be willing to buy a whole new Switch 2 just for the tie-in. Given that the Switch 2 was released relatively recently, you could probably claw back a chunk of change selling your non-special edition system on the second-hand market, too.

However, if you're not big on Zelda and already have a Switch 2, then I would sit this one out. How limited is the Nintendo Switch 2 The Legend of Zelda 40th Anniversary Edition system

Nintendo hasn't actually clarified whether the Nintendo Switch 2 The Legend of Zelda 40th Anniversary Edition is going to be produced in limited quantities. This is likely intentional, as it gives them some breathing room to produce plenty of units if it proves to be a smash hit. Today's best
