If you somehow haven’t heard from our numerous posts of coverage on it, The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom will arrive on Nintendo Switch next Friday. The game is easily Nintendo’s most significant game release this year, and we still don’t even know half of their schedule for 2023. That’s how important this title is, it’s six years in the making, depending on whom you talk to, and fans have been anticipating it for a very long time. Nintendo is very aware of this and has decided to do various activities to enhance the hype for the title further.
The first one is about to start, as the special Tri-Force-themed Splatfest will drop later today. But if you need something even more tantalizing to get you ready for the launch next week, Nintendo has revealed that they’re doing a special Nintendo Treehouse next Thursday starting at 9:45 EST to get you even more pumped:
Get ready Legend of Zelda fans! We will be hosting a special livestream leading up to the @NintendoNYC midnight launch of the Legend of #Zelda: #TearsOfTheKingdom.Tune in on 5/11, starting at 6:45pm PT/9:45pm ET to watch Nintendo Treehouse: Live & more!https://t.co/jRT5Suqrjl pic.twitter.com/wrORKEonxv

The only other previews they saw were from critics who got a hands-on game demo thanks to Nintendo. So they had to take their word on what they were seeing and experiencing.
The Nintendo Treehouse is a fun option to build up hype
