The recently launched Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom has quickly become one of the year’s most highly praised and finely crafted games. Offering a vast open world to explore and a captivating narrative, Tears of the Kingdom delivers a truly immersive experience. However, this doesn’t mean the game was entirely flawless.

While there were no significant bugs present upon release, there were a few glitches scattered throughout the game. These were exploited by some players, providing them with an unfair advantage. One of the most notable glitches was the duplication glitch. Unfortunately, this exploit has been effectively addressed and rendered unusable by the recent patch.

While these specific bugs were addressed, Nintendo stated that several improvements were made to enhance the overall gameplay experience. Aside from these glitches, TOTK has been receiving exceptional reviews and minimal criticisms, making it nearly flawless.
