Zelda: Breath of the Wild glitch gives player an incredibly powerful weapon – Attack Up +65,535
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch, Wii U | 9 Comments
Update: Reddit users are now questioning the legitimacy of this glitch. Rather than playing on Switch, it’s thought that this person instead modded the game on Wii U manually. We’ll update this post if we hear anything further.
Original: Glitches in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild can result in all sorts of fun. The latest one, which happened to Reddit user Eastonator12, involves a weapon.
Eastonator12 took down a Lynel after playing the game on Switch. The game crashed, but everything was fine – except for one thing. The Savage Lynel Sword in the player’s inventory carries damage of 6,559 with an “Attack Up” stat of 65,535. 65,535 is the maximum value for a 16bit unsigned integer in the world of programming, in case you’re interested.
You can see Eastonator12 taking down the final boss in Breath of the Wild with just one hit of the sword with the video below.

Glitch allows Zelda: Breath of the Wild players to obtain unlimited items
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch, Wii U | 11 Comments
Players have discovered all sorts of neat glitches since the game’s launch in March. Another one has been found, and it could be the most useful one yet – depending on how you look at it.
How does getting unlimited Korok Seeds sound? Or how about an infinite supply of Hylian Shields? With the newest glitch, both are entirely possible.
The glitch itself is very easy to do. You only need to enter the Trial of the Sword, warp to a Divine Beast that you haven’t finished… and that’s mostly it.
The video below shows the glitch in action. Everything respawns – treasure chests, Sheikah Towers, Shrines. If you’re looking for an easy way to gather 900 Korok Seeds, this is one way to do it. You’ll just need to put in the work to execute the glitch over and over.

Aonuma on BotW reaction and last boss difficulty, next Zelda will use HD Rumble but is a long way off, more
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch, Wii U | 40 Comments
At Japan Expo this week, GameReactor caught up with Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma. The discussion included talk about Breath of the Wild and Zelda in general.
Regarding Breath of the Wild, Aonuma reflected on the game’s reaction and those who say that the final boss was too easy. He also spoke in (very) vague terms about the next main Zelda – wanting to include HD Rumble, but it’s a long way off. Also, Aonuma basically said that Link is ambidextrous.
We’ve included what we feel are the more notable comments from Aonuma below. The full interview is on GameReactor here.

However, while Zelda or the Champions might not be playable, you will still learn more about them while playing the DLC. A brief in-development gameplay clip of the DLC was released, which you can check out below:

Zelda: Breath of the Wild player clips through wall, stumbles into strange area
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch, Wii U | 7 Comments
While playing through the Trial of the Sword challenge featured in Zelda: Breath of the Wild’s new DLC, Sharkystheshotty stumbled into a bizarre area. He managed to enter this strange section of the world by clipping through a wall.
As for how he did it, Sharkystheshotty said the following:
“Was on trial three on the Medium trials and flew up near the chest on the floating platform and just went through a wall. Couldn’t get back in.. so I didn’t make it.
I don’t really remember exactly where but I flew up with my glider on trial 3 on the Medium trials near where the floating chest was on the wall by the corner. Best I can do.”
We’re not really sure where Sharkystheshotty ended up. It could be a test area, unused material, or something else entirely. Regardless, it’s certainly an odd sight to behold.
Zelda: Breath of the Wild glitch lets you use the Camera Rune with free movement
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch, Wii U | 2 Comments
The Camera Rune in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is undoubtedly a useful feature. Players have used it to take all sorts of pictures and selfies with Link. With a new glitch though, the possibilities have expanded.
By following the steps below, you can move around freely while using the Camera Rune, ultimately allowing for infinite poses:
1. Hold Shield (ZL)
2. Camera + Crouch (L + LS)
3. Side Jump (Right + X)
*Hold ZL the whole process
YouTube user Mety333 shows off the glitch in the following video:
It’s true that you can take screenshots at any time on Switch. However, there are some angles and photos that you just can’t really take during normal gameplay, especially with the zoom function. And if nothing else, being able to play while the Camera Rune is going can lead to some interesting results.
