'Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild' Player Successfully Maneuvers Boulders and Makes It to Final Boss
A challenge recently laid down by the creators of "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild" has already been bested. At the Game Developers Conference held early this year, Nintendo hosted a panel dedicated to the development of "Breath of the Wild," where the makers of the game boasted about the openness of its world.
"You have the freedom to carry whatever object you like to any location in the game. If you try hard enough, you can roll the rock from the beginning of the game, to the place you fight the final boss," revealed in the game makers' presentation.
Recently, YouTube user PuppetMaster9 was able to prove that the rather goofy challenge posed by the makers of the game. The YouTuber showed how he managed to maneuver the boulder situated outside the Shrine of Resurrection at the beginning of "Breath of the Wild" using bombs, some old-fashioned pushing and the Stasis ability until he made his way to the final boss fight with Ganon.
Meanwhile, another "Breath of the Wild" player has figured out how to glide across Hyrule without having to shot bomb arrows to propel themselves skyward. YouTuber mety333 showed that by placing Link upon a metal box that is stacked on top of a cart and by using the Magnesis ability to pull the cart upward, a player can hit the invisible ceiling of the game.
By building the flying contraption, the player was able to go up high enough to hit the ceiling, which takes 90 seconds of straight ascending to reach. Going down from the invisible ceiling takes much longer, as a slow glide down can last as long as seven minutes.
After showing how far a player can go in one ascent, mety333 capped off the journey with a straight downward plummet.
"The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild" is available for the Nintendo Switch and Wii U.
