Oh, it seems leaked online a few weeks before the game’s release date. Some new images and clips from the Nintendo Switch title are making their way around the web Nintendo Life.
YouTubers Nintendo Prime and Zelda Lore raised the alarm by claiming that the ROM file of the game was already available and that some people were playing it through emulators. Some of the more popular sites where people get pirated Switch games still don’t offer download links. ROM, but it might take some time for the leaked file to spread on them.
Unfortunately, this is not a rare occurrence. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Boss battles and other spoiler-laden footage appear in a similar time frame, roughly two weeks before the release date.
As for how this latest leak came about, It’s scheduled to arrive on September 26th, so that’s around the time Nintendo will be sending out review copies. So someone with early access might have ripped the game and shared it online. In any case, if you don’t want the surprises of the game to be ruined, it’s worth exercising a little caution and muting some keywords on the social media platforms you use frequently.
It would be a real shame to accidentally spoil the fans Echoes of wisdombecause Zelda herself will be the first in the eponymous series. Any leaks could cause Nintendo to become even more selective about giving away review copies of games.
