'The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild' Glitch News: Twitter User Finds Link Can Walk Underwater
Nintendo Switch's leading open-world premiere game, "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild," is found to have a glitch involving Link's underwater activities.
The glitch, even though it seems harmless, was discovered by Twitter user Swiffy22 who showed it through a two-part Twitter video posted on Sunday, March 19.
In the first video, Link was hit by a boulder from Stone Talus which threw him into a lake. However, Link magically seems to not mind the body of water and walks around in it exactly like how he would do above ground.
But "Breath of the Wild" does not really sport any type of diving or underwater skill - even with Zora Gear.
The second video also featured the same glitch where Link is thrown forcefully into a lake, but the character continues to walk and jump around underwater as if he is actually on high ground.
As of the moment, Nintendo has not issued any statement about the glitch, and no plans are known as to what the creators will do with it.
"The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild" was released alongside the Nintendo Switch's official launch on March 3, among other games such as "Super Bomberman R" and "Metal Slug R."
It is the only premier game in a rather small but humble lineup for the hybrid console. It was given the Most Anticipated Game award from The Game Awards 2016, and it did not disappoint waiting fans - scoring a perfect 10 among top gaming reviewers such as GameSpot, IGN and Destructoid, among others.
The game's charm lies in the fact that players are given the opportunity to go at their own pace when it comes to gameplay. They can do their missions and quests quickly, but they are also allowed to take their time in exploring the game's wide and expansive open-world environment.
