Nintendo just rolled out a new update for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom—yeah, it’s at version 1.4.2 now. So, apparently, they’ve patched some stuff about Zelda Notes, which, let’s be honest, I barely noticed. This is specific to those using the Nintendo Switch 2. If you’re the type to dive deep into these notes, more power to you!
Anyway, what does it all mean? Well, they fixed this odd thing where you couldn’t use the “Health Recovery” or “Hearty Meal” if your hearts were maxed out. Kind of a bummer before, right? Imagine rationing your gameplay to squeeze every bit of health juice. Or not. I dunno. Maybe the developers sat around a table and thought, “Hey, let’s make sure folks can get all the health they want!”
And, oh yeah, there were a bunch of mysterious Zelda Notes issues that got sorted. Probably important, though I’m still not sure how—like when you leave home without knowing why you turned all the lights off, even though it felt necessary somehow.
Moving on—background music during some battles wasn’t vibing right. If you’ve ever tried fighting an enemy to the wrong soundtrack, you’ll know how bizarre that can be. Like watching a horror movie set to circus music.
Anyway—wait, where was I? Oh, right. They’ve tidied up a bunch of other stuff too, to make playing less of a glitchy ride. So, if you’re diving back into Hyrule, maybe it’ll all just flow, sort of like a stream on a summer afternoon… until you hit rocks. Metaphorically, of course. Enjoy the chaos!
