## Key points

- New glitches let child Link jump repeatedly.
- Exploits reach areas before they should be accessible.
- Speedrunners are exploring possible new routes.

## Summary

Players have discovered new exploits in Nintendo’s Ocarina of Time remake that let Link jump repeatedly and reach areas he should not access as a child. The glitches matter to speedrunners because they may open new routes through the game, though at least one obstacle remains before the technique can be used in a run.

Two methods are circulating: switching between two quick-menu items and “actor jumping”. Players have used the exploits to reach places such as Hyrule Castle and the Shadow Temple, where Link’s character model can stretch into distorted shapes. The remake launched last week and retains features including a jump button, alongside changes to the original game.
