As an additional detail, it has been revealed that The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom It is positioned as the second best-selling game of 2023 with 20.28 million units sold on the Nintendo Switch alone.

The game's reputation was tarnished to the point that it did not receive nominations at some of the biggest awards shows in 2023. However, sales show that the public did have an interest in this title.
