The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild may have been released exactly a year and a half ago today, but there are still plenty of things to be uncovered in Hyrule and beyond. One person has taken that 'beyond' to the extreme, uncovering a new glitch which takes Link on a journey through an alternate Hyrule universe.

By executing a glitch during the game's The Master Trials DLC, YouTube user Mety333 has found a way to explore new, unseen areas within the game. Of course, these areas were never intended to be seen by players or even function correctly as any part of natural gameplay, and this results in some very strange, creepy, but fascinating finds.

We see areas where puddles of water momentarily turn into lava, burning Link and dealing damage in the process; plenty of weird and wonderful ethereal areas with floating cubes of light and other objects; and even a vertical drop which appears to be the edge of the world. Interestingly, this whole universe seems to be a hub-like area which contains all of the rooms found in the Trial of the Sword challenge, suggesting that these rooms were all placed into one handy location during the development of the game.
