Zelda Upgrade Process Is Mildly Confusing For NSO Members

If you’re a member of Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack, the Switch 2 upgrades for The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom come included with your subscription. But how exactly you access those upgrades can be mildly confusing, so be warned.

When you transfer your data from a Switch to Switch 2, it will start downloading various software from your old system. Once it’s done downloading one of the Zelda games, you might think the rest happens automatically–but no. Instead, starting up Tears of the Kingdom starts the Switch version, with a menu option at the bottom to upgrade to the Switch 2 version. Selecting that menu item forwards you to the Nintendo eShop store page, or you can find the store pages manually.

But here’s where the process may trip up unsuspecting Hyrulians. The store page displays two different buttons. On the left side, next to the “Online + Expansion Pack” label, is “Download.” On the right side is “Continue.” The Continue button is noticeably much ******* and brighter, and located where you’d usually go to complete a transaction. But the free option for subscribers is the “Download” button.

You can still hit Continue to buy the content, which means you would continue to have access to it even if you let your Switch Online subscription lapse. But if that won’t be a problem for you, there’s no reason to pay the $10 premium. Purchasing the upgrade will prompt a second download, after which you’ll need to restart the software if you had it running.

The Nintendo Switch 2 has just launched, which means lots of fans are getting their first hands-on with the games, including the launch lineup like Mario Kart World and Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour. Be sure to reference our restock guide if you still need a hand finding the system. If you are an Expansion Pack subscriber, you also now get access to GameCube games on Switch 2.
