How To Increase Inventory Space In The Legend Of Zelda Tears Of The Kingdom

If you have questions about expanding your inventory in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, we have the answers you are looking for.
How To Increase Inventory Space In The Legend Of Zelda Tears Of The Kingdom

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is a massive game that has a lot for players to uncover. Due to the open-world nature of the game, it is entirely possible to miss some essential items in the game. On top of that, you will have items constantly thrown at you while you play Tears of the Kingdom.

However, you cannot carry all of the items in the world. You will have a limited inventory of weapons, bows, and shields. For collectibles and armor, there is a lot more leniency on how much you can carry. Although you have a limit on items like weapons, it is entirely possible to increase that limit and get more inventory space for these items. Here, we will teach you how to expand your inventory in Tears of the Kingdom.

If you have played Breath of the Wild before, then you will already have a pretty good idea of how to increase your inventory. In Tears of the Kingdom, you will need to find a big Korok NPC by the name of Hestu. Only he can increase your inventory space for your shields, bows, and weapons. You can find Hestu relatively early in Tears of the Kingdom.

Hestu is located northwest of Lookout Landing. You will need to go to a new area of the map if you are starting, but he is on one of the main roads in that area. You will need to complete the Hestu's Concerns sidequest, which involves you killing Treants. Once you destroy the sentient trees, Hestu will be ready to increase your inventory space.

To increase your inventory space in Tears of the Kingdom, you will need Korok Seeds. Koroks are hidden all over the map, so keep an eye out on anything that looks off and keep an eye out for Koroks who need help. Once you have enough Korok Seeds, Hestu will ask you to choose between weapons, shields, or bows to increase their inventory space.

Choose one, and he will increase the inventory space for that specific item. After you complete the Hestu's Concerns sidequest, Hestu will increase your inventory space twice before he moves. He will actually head to Lookout Landing and will remain there for the majority of the game. Just remember after each expansion, it will cost more and more Korok Seeds to increase your inventory space. So keep an eye out for any lost Koroks in Tears of the Kingdom.
