Overview
- The Switch 2 version of Tears of the Kingdom officially does not support cloud saves, as confirmed on US and EU store pages.
- Breath of the Wild's cloud save status is ambiguous, with no disclaimer on its store page despite reports suggesting similar restrictions.
- Players can transfer saves from the original Switch to Switch 2 but cannot back up new progress in the enhanced editions.
- Regional discrepancies add confusion: Japanese store pages imply cloud saves may still work with a Nintendo Switch Online subscription.
- Nintendo has not explained the cloud save limitations, which contrast with new features like enhanced visuals, faster load times, and the Zelda Notes app.
