Zelda: Breath of the Wild glitch messes with Link’s inventory model, lets you “drop” the Master Sword
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch, Wii U | 15 Comments
Ditching the Master Sword isn’t normally possible in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. But with a new glitch, players are allowing for it to happen – and in a strange way.
Having enemies shoot a certain number of arrows causes issues with the game’s memory management. When there are too many arrows, you’ll see a glitched character model of Link in the inventory menu. Weapons can also be duplicated. By doing so, you can “drop” the Master Sword, and you’ll even see a message stating: “The Master Sword has returned to the forest”.
Note that the sword is still kept in your inventory. It’s though that Nintendo may have thought about creating a possible failsafe in a previous build that was ultimately discarded. It’s pretty neat in any case.
