In case you've been lost in the wilderness for the last 24 hours, The Legend of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom is out now on Nintendo Switch and a lot of people really like it. Nintendo celebrated the launch with a party at the Nintendo NY store in New York City, and now other publishers and developers are weighing in on the Zelda hype over social media.

PlayStation tweeted a simple "Have fun up there, Hylians!" with a cloud emoji in acknowledgement of Link's latest adventure.

Meanwhile Devolver Digital warned everyone that "Devolver Digital Corporate Tower will be closed for Zelda."

Xbox seems ready to jump in, tweeting "it's good to be back in Hyrule."

One of Xbox's most popular games, Sea of Thieves, gave its players the day off from the high seas with its tweet, saying they "won't shed any tears if you're too busy in another kingdom for a sail today."

GameSpot's Tears of the Kingdom review calls it "The Legend of Zelda at its finest, borrowing the best pieces and qualities from across the franchise's history and creating something new that is emotionally resonant, captivating, and endlessly rewarding."

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is available now exclusively on Nintendo Switch. If you're heading into Hyrule later today, GameSpot's Tears of the Kingdom guides hub has everything you need to get started.
