In Breath of the Wild, there’s a sequence just before the Divine Beast Vah Ruta in which Link is able to ride on the back of Prince Sidon in order to reach the battle. One player has discovered how to glitch that segment and use Sidon as a mount outside of that battle. Destructoid reports that the glitch was allegedly discovered by Twitter user F00_Sing , who has created a Twitter thread to demonstrate step-by-step how to replicate the glitch. The tweets are in Japanese, but Google Translate helps clarify the instructions enough to understand the basics. Alternatively, this video from YouTuber Any Austin goes in-depth on how to achieve it.Essentially, after some messing around with a previously discovered infinite jump glitch, you need to drown Link during the battle with Divine Beast Vah Ruta in order to respawn and then escape to the nearby reservoir, where you can find Prince Sidon. Then you can hop on his back and effectively use him as a horse.Prince Sidon is one of Breath of the Wild’s breakout characters, gaining a legion of fans during Zelda’s launch period. No doubt some of those fans will be thrilled by this discovery.While players are still finding things in the Switch’s first Zelda game, we’re already looking at what we’d like from the upcoming Breath of the Wild sequel . What we don’t want is more of the same . We’ve also been making predictions: here’s what Breath of the Wild 2 may mean for the Zelda timeline
