Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Receives Game-Changing Update 1.2.0 With Multiple Fixes

The Nintendo Switch exclusive open-world title The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is perfect in every way. Many are already considering it the game of the year 2023. But even the best of games has flaws, as does this one.

Nintendo has been continuously working on fixing problems with the game, which range from silly glitches to annoying bugs. The recent update to version 1.2.0 will hopefully go a long way toward making the game a smoother experience.

Nintendo’s Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom update fixes most of the game’s issues

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is a smooth game for the most part. Barring some small visual issues caused by the dated hardware of its platform, the game runs pretty much flawlessly. But this Nintendo Switch exclusive does have a bunch of glitches and bugs that many players exploit. Some players even use these glitches to just speedrun the massive game.

But it appears Nintendo has decided to put an end to this. They recently launched an update for the title, fixing a bunch of those bugs and glitches. Following is the official list of fixes that this update brings to the game. Here are some that players might find useful:

• By starting the game from within certain articles released on a specific Switch News channel, players can receive a number of in-game items. According to Nintendo, this might not be possible in some cases. This has to do with the state of gameplay progression and the location in which the data is reopened.

Some of the issues that were fixed include:

• The issue where players couldn’t go past a certain point during some quests. The complete list of the quests for which this was an issue is given on the Nintendo official site.
• The issue preventing fairies from appearing under certain conditions
• The issue preventing meals provided by Kiana of Lurelin Village from changing under certain conditions

Not everyone is happy about the update

Even though these fixes are good news to some, many people are not happy about this update. They have lost access to a bunch of exploits that allowed them to duplicate items, saving them the effort of gathering them from everywhere.

A typical player would indeed be happy about the fact that the game is getting better with time. Hence, it becomes hard to understand what the general consensus is. But we are sure about one thing – this game remains one of the best open-world titles launched this year.
