On May 12th, 2023, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom was released on Nintendo Switch. The long-awaited sequel to Breath of the Wild, Tears of the Kingdom proved to be one of the biggest, and most highly-acclaimed games of the year. Hard as it might be to believe, it's been one year since the game's release, and Zelda's official Japanese Twitter account is celebrating with a brand-new piece of art based on the game.
Tears of the Kingdom Sales on SwitchIn just a year, Tears of the Kingdom has become one of the best-selling video games on Nintendo Switch. Last week, Nintendo updated its list of top-selling games on the console, and the latest Zelda adventure has a firm place in the top 10. So far, Tears of the Kingdom has sold 20.61 million copies worldwide. It still has a little while to go before the game can reach Breath of the Wild, however, which is currently sitting at 31.85 million copies.
Readers should note that these figures only account for sales of games that were published by Nintendo, and do not include third-party games. While Tears of the Kingdom was a massive hit for Nintendo in 2023, it actually wasn't Switch's biggest seller in Japan last year; that honor actually goes to Suika Game, which also beat out titles like Super Mario Bros. Wonder and Pikmin 4.
