The latest update fixes a number of bugs and potential story blocks. In addition, another popular glitch had to go.

Nintendo has released patch 1.2.0 for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom . It even fixes a surprisingly long list of bugs (by Nintendo standards) and yes, also another duplication glitch was fixed, which once again causes more consternation than joy about the update in the Zelda community.

We have picked out the highlights from the release notes for you. You can also find the complete changes below, because: Page 2, which is our usual page for this, is simply not worth it.

The highlights of patch 1.2.0

Two items should be especially important to you in this update:

Story blockers have been removed: In a number of main quests, it was previously possible that you could no longer progress under certain circumstances. These plot stoppers are history with the new patch.

In-Game Items via Switch News Channel: When you switch to the News Channel in your Nintendo Switch home menu, you should keep your eyes open for Zelda articles in the future. It’s quite possible that you’ll receive items transferred into the game at the touch of a button within these news articles. Patch 1.2.0 sets the technical course for this.

Bye, bye, Glitch: It’s not the first glitch, but it’s probably the most popular one among many fans. With a few flicks of the wrist, you could duplicate your most valuable items. Now, of course, Nintendo has also closed this loophole. This is causing the usual I won’t update! comments on Reddit.

All changes from patch 1.2.0

As promised, here are the complete release notes for the new update:

General Updates

By starting the game from within certain articles released on a specific Switch News channel (accessed via the HOME Menu) players can receive a number of in-game items.

Depending on the state of gameplay progression or the location in which the data is reopened, there may be cases in which the items cannot be received.

Additional Fixes

Fixed an issue where players could not progress beyond a certain point in the main quests “A Mystery in the Depths” and “Secret of the Ring Ruins”, the side adventures “Hateno Village Research Lab” and “Lurelin Village Restoration Project”, the shrine quest “Dyeing to Find It”, and the side quests “Village Attacked by Pirates”, “The Incomplete Stable”, and “Seeking the Pirate Hideout”. Downloading the update will allow players to proceed past that point.

Fixed an issue preventing fairies from appearing under certain conditions when they originally should have appeared.

Fixed an issue preventing the meals provided by Kiana of Lurelin Village from changing under certain conditions.

Several issues have been addressed to improve the gameplay experience.

Did you download patch 1.2.0 as soon as you got up this morning? Were you affected by one of the fixed story blockers and are now happy to finally be able to progress in the main quest? Or do you belong to the faction of glitchers who will definitely not install the new update? Feel free to write it in the comments!
