One of these supposed “jokes” came from a user named Eroke on the gaming forum site ResetEra, who posted a screenshot of the title receiving a rating of “12+” from the Game Rating and Administration Committee (GRAC) of South Korea.

However, when Tears of the Kingdom was in development, it actually broke. The break was significant, affecting game mechanics and physics.

Their show about the Season was two hours long. Notably, the overhaul in loot is going to have a big impact on in-game playability and how you build your character.
