The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdomplayers seem to be in agreement that the rewards they get from chests are inadequate.The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdomreleased to widespread critical acclaim, becoming 2023’s highest-rated game so far and one of the highest-rated games of all time. But even thoughZelda: Tears of the Kingdomhas enjoyed near-universal praise since launch, that doesn’t mean that the game is entirely without flaws.
One commoncriticism aimed atThe Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdomis its technical performance.

Besides the occasional performance hiccup, the lack of quality rewards from chests is another complaint fans have about the game.

This was expressed by Reddit user MedicalRaa in a post that earned over 2,000 upvotes and had many other users agreeing in the comment section. They pointed out how many chests inTears of the Kingdomhave lackluster rewards, like random weak weapons or opals. They would rather chests in the game give out more useful items like arrow bundles or bomb flowers instead. Fans also complained about how they could go through the trouble of wiping out amonster camp inTears of the Kingdom, expending resources in the process, and wind up with underwhelming loot that makes the endeavor not really worth it.
While it seems manyZelda: Tears of the Kingdomplayers are in agreement that chest rewards could use a boost, it is a relatively minor problem and not something that is likely to hinder the enjoyment of most fans in any serious way. However, it’s possible Nintendo may take this feedback into account and adjust chest rewards accordingly. Nintendo hasreleased variousZelda: Tears of the Kingdomupdatessince launch to fix bugs and get rid of duplication glitches, so it’s possible a future update could make rewards from chest more worthwhile.
However, that seems unlikely. For now,Zeldafans will just have to be happy with the current rewards they get from chests in the open world game while they wait for more information on future updates and potential DLC. NoZelda: Tears of the KingdomDLChas actually been announced at the time of this writing, but considering the game’s record-breaking sales success, it seems like it would be a no-brainer.
