game news Zelda TOTK: Nintendo urgently fixes a duplication bug… but leaves an even crazier one!
The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom is not ready yet: Nintendo has just released a new update with a bunch of fixes. Unfortunately, for some, this fixes a bug that allowed duplicating objects…
An update for the good of all
Even if your name is Zelda Tears of the Kingdom, you’ve taken the time to come out and you’ve already offered yourself to millions of players with a zany flair, you can’t be flawless: a few small bugs remained here and there
For example, A bug with thrown weapons and another with frozen meat allowed item duplication, resulting in large sums of money being able to be made quickly. A real flaw in the system spread very quickly among players and which Nintendo obviously wouldn’t ignore: The very latest update fixed the “problem”.
Duplication is no longer possible but a number of other fixes are also scheduled for this 1.2.0 patch: Fixed a bug that prevented progress in the main campaign, a bug that prevented fairies from spawning under certain conditions, and a bug related to meals provided by Kiana from Lurelin Village. Overall, we are given more solutions to the problem Improve the overall gaming experience.
When there is more, there is more
If other glitches no longer work with this update (like the one at Tobio’s Hollow Chasm) the players quickly took the lead to find one that might have slipped through the cracks. And they succeeded!
This again allows objects to be duplicated and sold to infinity, but on the other hand it is a bit longer and more precise than its predecessors. Below is an explanatory video. To achieve this you must follow a very precise procedure: good luck to you.

This update also features some small welcome bonuses: When launching the game from certain articles in the Switch News Channel (a tab in the Nintendo Switch menu), it is possible to restore certain items directly in-game. A method that we have already seen in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and that allows a new interaction with the community: we will not complain about it.
