Is there a corrupted Master Sword in BOTW?

Yes, there's a visually "broken" or "corrupted" Master Sword in Breath of the Wild (BOTW) shown in cutscenes, resulting from the Great Calamity, but it's generally unavailable in-game except through glitches or mods, existing as an unused asset (Code "Sword 56"). While the in-game sword recharges, players have found complex glitches, like Weapon Modifier Corruption, to create super-powered versions, or mods add a "False Master Sword," but the true corrupted version is primarily lore-based and theoretical for gameplay.

Can the Master Sword be broken in BOTW?

No, the Master Sword in Breath of the Wild doesn't permanently break; it runs out of energy and becomes unusable, but it recharges after about 10 minutes (or 10 game hours) and can be used infinitely, especially after completing the Trial of the Sword DLC, which increases its power and durability. When near Malice or Guardians, it glows and deals double damage (60 attack power), and this powered-up state also recharges but has much higher durability.

Why is the Master Sword decayed?

The Master Sword is decayed in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom because it was shattered and corrupted by Ganondorf's Gloom beneath Hyrule Castle when Link first confronted the Demon King, weakening it and draining Link's own power. This initial decay left it in a much weaker, broken state, necessitating its journey back in time to be restored by Zelda, eventually becoming the Light Dragon.

NEW! Corrupted Master Sword - Zelda Breath of the Wild

Did they fix the Master Sword glitch in BOTW?

No, the popular early Master Sword campfire glitch in Breath of the Wild (BotW) has not been officially patched and still works on current versions, including on the Switch 2, though timing (spamming 'A' faster) can be trickier due to higher frame rates. Nintendo has patched other glitches (like in Tears of the Kingdom), but the basic "rest at campfire while looking up and spam A to pull before loading" method for getting the sword early remains functional in BotW.

Is there a permanent sword in Breath of the Wild?

In Zelda: Breath of the Wild, no sword is truly unbreakable by default, but the Master Sword is special: it runs out of energy and recharges (10 mins) instead of shattering, and can become permanently powered-up and durable after completing the Master Trials DLC, effectively making it unbreakable during combat. Other "unbreakable" options involve glitches or using other unique items like the One-Hit Obliterator (temporary), but the Master Sword's recharge and DLC upgrade are the intended ways to have a near-permanent powerful sword.
