The quest for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom news took an unexpected turn this week when it was revealed that some people can get their hands on a very strange pre-order bonus for the game if they buy it in advance. While most pre-order bonuses consist of things like in-game skins, some resources to get players started, or the occasional physical collectible like posters and pins, but in this case the ones that pre-order Tears of the Kingdom from Amazon Japan earns itself a nice, shiny spoon with the name of the game on it.
Twitter user and deal-seeker Wario64 was one of the first to point out the strange pre-order bonus as it appeared on the Amazon Japan site. An example of the pre-order bonus can be seen below to reveal an item that looks very much as you’d probably imagine: it’s a spoon that reads “The Legend of Zelda” that goes up in the handle with the series’ logo printed in the end of it.

Interestingly enough, it looks like this spoon is part of a set, with the other half of the collectible being a fork with identical Legend of Zelda branding. The Amazon Japan List for Tears of the Kingdom however only mentions the spoon. The item is exclusive to that regional retailer, though it seems those in the United States will still be able to purchase it to have that version of the game delivered by the spoon upon release.
Spoons and forks aren’t exactly the pressing Zelda topics fans like to talk about now that a new game is out in a few months, but given how little has been said about the game lately, these are the types interesting finds Zelda fans finding comfort as they wait for more news. Rumors and leaks have of course tried to reveal parts of the game early through things like new enemy designs and hopes for DLC for the game, but those sorts of searches will hopefully be put to rest soon as Nintendo shares more on Tears of the Kingdom before the May release date.
