It’s already May, meaning The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is almost here and players who want to get in on pre-order bonuses need to hurry to place their orders before everything is gone. The full release of the game will happen on May 12, 2023, so any pre-orders need to be made before that date, but as fast as bonus items are disappearing, it is worthwhile to check what is still available. The game is available in both physical and digital formats with many of the pre-order bonuses being limited to the physical copies of the game.
The Tears of the Kingdom release date is almost here, which is great news for many excited fans, and there are still some pre-order extras that can be obtained for anyone who acts fast. While the USA and Europe bonuses are delineated below, there are many offers available for other countries. These include items such as a tee shirt in Israel, a spoon in Japan, a desk mat and blanket in Korea, and many more.
GameStop’s Exclusive Wooden Plaque Tears Of The Kingdom Pre-Order Bonus
One of the few remaining Tears of the Kingdom pre-order bonuses for players in the USA is an exclusive wooden plaque from GameStop. This plaque is only offered for the physical copy of the title and will be available upon pickup at the local store. GameStop is recommending that people call their locations to make sure the plaques are in stock before going to pick them up, however, as supplies will be limited.
Europe’s My Nintendo Stores Are Offering A Collector’s Coin And Luggage Tag
In the UK, Ireland, Italy, and Germany, My Nintendo Store is offering two special items as pre-order bonuses. Anyone who purchases TOTK while these items are still available will receive a special collector’s coin and luggage tag. Previously there were additional bundles that included other items such as a journal, but these bundles are all unfortunately sold out.
USA Target’s In-Store Hip-Pack Isn’t From A Pre-Order, But It’s A Fun Bonus
Some Target locations in the United States are going to be offering a limited supply of free “Adventure Hip Packs” for in-store purchases of the physical TOTK game on May 12, 2023. These are not a pre-order bonus and will be provided on a first-come, first-served basis in the stores themselves. Customers should consider calling their local Target locations to see if this will be offered there, but the store employees are not at liberty to set any aside for anyone.
Most TOTK Pre-Order Bonuses Are Already Sold Out
Sadly, the majority of the pre-order bonus items for Tears of the Kingdom are already gone. Walmart had previously offered gold and black wall scrolls which are now unavailable. Best Buy had also been providing a free art print with pre-orders of the physical game, but according to a representative at Best Buy’s customer support, these are no longer available either.
TOTK is going to be here soon, and the pre-orders have been selling out quickly. Anyone who is wanting to grab any of these remaining offers needs to hurry before they are gone. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom will be released exclusively for the Nintendo Switch on May 12, 2023.
