Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom patch spells doom for fans of the duplication glitches

Nintendo has released the second Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom patch which has finally put an end to the extremely popular duplication glitch

Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom players have been able to cheat the Hyrule economy since the game first launched, discovering a duplication glitch shortly after release and quickly finding an even faster way to dupe items. Armed with this knowledge, you could clone almost any item in the game. However, this is sadly no more with the arrival of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Patch 1.1.2.

This glitch could be used in ways that don't exactly break the game, like grabbing some more bombs or the odd item. However, the number one item to duplicate was diamonds, an extremely rare material which sells for 500 rupees a pop, meaning players could become filthy rich extremely fast, being able to buy all of the best Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom armour sets with rupees to spare.
