At the start ofThe Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, you’ll see the Master Sword shatter into a million pieces before Link sends the remains of the blade to who knows where with some wibbly wobbly time magic. For normal players, that’s the most you see of the fabled blade for quite some time, but one player has figured out how to get it right away, and make it ridiculously powerful and unbreakable to boot.
For those that might not be familiar with how the Master Sword works inBreath of the Wildand Tears of the Kingdom, it’s essentially a permanent weapon that has a limited amount of charge. Once the Master Sword completely runs out of juice, you need to wait a short period of time before you can use it again, unlike other weapons that just explode when you use them too much. It’s a pain in the rear, but it stops you from spamming your Master Sword constantly and forces you to keep swithcing up your weapons like you’ve been doing for the majority of the game.

However, there are those who wish that they could use the Master Sword whenever they please, and have used a series of glitches to obtain an unbreakable version of the weapon. While there are plenty of videos already out there, this one comes from YouTuber KnightPohtaytoe, who uses information from fellow YouTubers Blaines and Linkus7 to come up with a no risk method of obtaining an unbreakable Master Sword.
you’re able to find the full method in the video embedded above, but to cut a long story short, it requires a bit of patience, a few glitches, and some fiddling around with save states. It essentially warps Link’s Master Sword from the beginning of the game to the In-Isa Shrine on the Great Sky Island tutorial area. KnightPohtaytoe even shows you how you can fuse a weapon to this busted Master Sword to make it even more powerful, though this seems to be one of the more intricate and unreliable things to try and pull off.
Even if you’re not interested and would rather stick with weapon durability, you can watch the video just to see how wild it is that players like KnightPohtaytoe have already discovered multiple game breaking glitches like this in such a short space of time. For example, another player called Modoki_returns recently showcased on Twitterhow to easily duplicate weapons, allowing you to run around with an entire inventory of some of Tears of the Kingdom’s most powerful weaponry.
