Quickly and easily duplicate any item in Link’s inventory with this handy glitch that’s been discovered following the Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom 1.1.1 update.
For as great a game as Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is, there’s one area where this latest adventure can be incredibly stingy: rupees. It’s not like the old days where you could find them hiding under every rock and grassroot. No, this Zelda: Breath of the Wild sequel makes you work for your money. Only it actually doesn’t necessarily, because a new glitch has been discovered as part of Tears of the Kingdom update 1.1.1 that lets you duplicate any material in Link’s inventory – precious stones included.
Players have already discovered one Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom update glitch that sits separately to this one, capable of letting you copy almost any weapon, shield or Zonai device (excluding the Master Sword). This new method unfortunately won’t let you duplicate weapons and shields, but materials are firmly on the table. Better yet, it's a far quicker and less involved process.
From materials like Diamonds and Rubies that can be sold for money or monster materials handy for fusing to Link’s weapons or use within elixirs, the success rate for this material glitch is extremely high. Aiding proceedings is that fact that not too much is asked of you at all, and you won’t need to reload any saves or regularly spam your Nintendo Switch console’s start button.
How to do new Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom dupe glitch
All you need to perform the material item glitch is your paraglider and a small ledge. That's it! With everything prepared here’s the exact steps to follow:
Nintendo Switch 2 release set for next year as Zelda ushers in the end of Switch
- Have the item you want to duplicate in the last slot of your materials tab. (This is easily done by holding the item, dropping it, then picking it back up again).
- Next, jump off a small ledge and start to paraglide.
- While you’re paragliding and before you touch the ground, open your menu and hold an item that has a quantity of one followed by the item that you want to dupe (in the last slot of your inventory). Link should now be holding two items.
- Then simply exit the menu screen. You’ll see that both items you were holding will have dropped to the floor, but the item you wanted to dupe remains in your inventory.
- Pick up both items you just dropped, and you will have duplicated the intended item.
- Rinse and repeat.
So there you have it. This glitch works on any item in your inventory and can be repeated as many times as you like. As mentioned earlier, it’s duplicating precious stone items like Diamonds, Rubies and Opals that will heed you the most rupees, however, because they can be sold at shops. Be sure to jump on this quick before Nintendo tries to patch it out.
