The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is the long-awaited follow-up to Breath of the Wild released in 2017. The performance of the first installment, which had received widespread praise upon its debut, has made fans increasingly excited for the sequel’s impending arrival.

With its launch date fast approaching, players are now asking a variety of questions in preparation for its eventual availability. One particular aspect that devoted followers are particularly curious about is if the game will feature a multiplayer aspect. Here’s all that we know.

Will Zelda Tears of the Kingdom have multiplayer mode?

Unfortunately, Tears of the Kingdom will not have a multiplayer mode available on launch day. Similar to previous Zelda releases, the latest entry in Nintendo’s storied franchise will remain a solo endeavor as you once again control Link in the never-ending battle against Ganon.

This burning inquiry regarding TotK’s possible multiplayer mode may have been caused in part by a Reddit post. The thread in question features an image displaying a booklet page of Tears of the Kingdom, showing that it will have Nintendo Switch Online functionality enabled.

Naturally, the inclusion of this specific feature on the page prompted the community to start asking questions. However, most users are speculating that its incorporation most likely just means that cloud saving will be activated throughout the adventure.

Other responses, on the other hand, are theorizing that a feature similar to Tingle Bottles in Wind Waker HD will be included in TotK. For those that are unfamiliar, Tingle Bottles essentially allowed users to send message and screenshots to other random players through the Miiverse.
