After Zelda: Breath of the Wild’s first DLC pack arrived, players eventually discovered an interesting glitch. It involved entering the the Trial of the Sword and warping to a Divine Beast that you haven’t finished in order to duplicate items.
With the new update released this week, the glitch has since been patched. So if you’ve downloaded version 1.3.1, it’s impossible to recreate the glitch in the same exact way. We wouldn’t be surprised though if players manage to find another way of duplicating items with a different glitch in the future.
Thanks to Jake for the tip.

As a captured Cheep Cheep, Mario can move around in water freely. He also doesn’t have to worry about breathing while in this state.
Gust published a new trailer for Nights of Azure 2 today focusing on swimsuits. Interestingly enough, changing into swimsuits is tied to the game’s story as it’s tied to the purification rituals. Watch today’s video below.
Koei Tecmo published a new trailer for Fire Emblem Warriors today featuring Cordelia. Check out the first gameplay of the new character below.
After it launched on Switch a few hours ago, Nintendo has sent out the first update to those who are following the new Zelda: Breath of the Wild News channel. Director Hidemaro Fujibayashi will be sharing messages to players.
As for the initial items, they aren’t terribly exciting. Nintendo’s first distributions are only for apples and a piece of meat. Here’s hoping future items are a bit more exciting.
In Japan, the murder mystery adventure game J.B. Harold Murder Club is launching on the eShop today. Have a look at a trailer below.
