The short answer is no. You cannot play Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom on the Android platform as the game is a Nintendo Switch exclusive that is not natively available on any other platform.

So if you want to play Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom on a handheld device on the go, it is the right time to grab a Nintendo Switch. That aside, if you were waiting for a Switch price drop, you are in bad luck as Nintendo's President, Shuntaro Furukawa, has already confirmed the company has no plans on cutting the price of its Nintendo Switch consoles until April 2024.

The only way to play Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom on a handheld device other than a Nintendo Switch is the Steam Deck, in which you can install Windows and then the Yuzu emulator and play the game.

But since Nintendo is hellbent on attacking all sorts of emulation and modding, it is better to be safe and play Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom by purchasing it from official stores and playing it on Switch.

Can You Play Zelda Tears Of The Kingdom On iOS?

No. Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is not playable on the iOS platform. As we mentioned earlier, the game is only available on Nintendo Switch.

If you don't own a Nintendo Switch, you can try out games like Genshin Impact and Tower of Fantasy on your iOS device, as they are somewhat similar to Zelda.
