Grab Zelda: Link's Awakening Remake On Switch For $40
One of last year's best Switch games, Link's Awakening, is getting a discount at various retailers for Cyber Monday.
The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening was one of 2019's biggest Switch releases, but if you've yet to pick it up, Cyber Monday 2020 will be a great time to do so. The Switch exclusive was discounted at several major retailers as part of their Black Friday sales, giving you a chance to snag one of last year's best titles for cheap. While it's currently out of stock at Walmart, where it was on offer for the lowest price of $30, you can still pick it up for $40 as part of GameStop's Cyber Monday sale. Check out more of the best Cyber Monday deals in our roundup.
The Legend Of Zelda: Link's Awakening
Best deal: $40 at GameStop
The best deal we've spotted on Link's Awakening so far comes from Walmart, but it's currently (unsurprisingly) out of stock. The retail giant is slshed the remake to $30 (50% off its standard retail price) as part of its big Black Friday 2020 sale. We're not sure if Walmart will get more in stock for Cyber Monday, but we'll be keeping an eye on it just in case. It's not the only retailer offering discounts on the game, however. GameStop also has the game for $40, if you miss out on the Walmart deal.
Link's Awakening is a full remake of the classic Game Boy game of the same name. Unlike a typical Zelda adventure, the game is not set in Hyrule proper but rather on the strange, dream-like Koholint Island, where Link must conquer puzzle-filled dungeons and gather eight magical instruments to wake the sleeping Wind Fish and return home.
"Though the remake has a couple of blemishes, it's still an easy game to recommend," we wrote in our The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening review. "People speak of Link's Awakening as the secret best Zelda game. That's a tough call to make, but it's definitely one of the best. If you haven't touched a classic Zelda game in a while, Link's Awakening will almost instantly transport you back to the '90s. It's simple, in many ways, but the orchestrated journey still conveys a sense of adventure, and this new version is without question the best way to experience it. And more than anything else, it will put a smile on your face."
We'll be rounding up a lot more Cyber Monday deals through the end of this weekend leading into Cyber Monday, so check back often for the best savings.
