Exciting news for fans of The Legend of Zelda! The upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 versions of Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom are set to receive some notable upgrades, including a much-anticipated feature: equipment repair. As discovered by YouTuber Zeltik during a recent Nintendo Treehouse Live stream, the Zelda Notes app, a mobile companion exclusive to these Switch 2 versions, introduces a Daily Bonus feature. This feature allows players to roll for various in-game bonuses, one of which is labeled "Equipment Repairs."
In both Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom, the durability of weapons, shields, and other items has been a point of contention among players. The ability to repair equipment could be a game-changer for those who have grown attached to their favorite gear, like the Flameblade. However, there's a catch: the Daily Bonus uses a roulette wheel, meaning the chance of getting an Equipment Repair is not guaranteed. Additionally, players can only roll once per day, adding a layer of strategy and anticipation to the feature.
The Zelda Notes app doesn't stop at equipment repairs. It also introduces achievements for both games and special audio memories that enrich the lore and background of Hyrule. These enhancements, combined with the performance improvements of the Nintendo Switch 2, promise to elevate the open-world experience of these beloved titles, particularly for players who have been frustrated by the breaking of their favorite weapons.
