Can you beat Tears of the Kingdom without pressing the Y Button?



The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is pretty much my game of the year at the moment and ever since I beat it, I thought a weapon-less challenge run could be possible. So in this video I decide to find out, can you beat the game without pressing Y?

This has taken me over 2 weeks to film and put together and I did all of it while sick. I still am. this is my excuse for having a bad script read.

  1. There is a way to use Sidon's ability without using Y. Drop a weapon, pick it up, press R and release

    Edit: on a closer look, just pressing R is enough to unsheathe your weapon so yeah, just press R
