Two unused paraglider skins inThe Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdomhave been uncovered by dataminers, and there’s some speculation that the unused resources point to new Amiibos on the horizon.
The discovery was first reported earlier this weekend by Spanish-language websiteFayerWayer, which revealed both a Princess Zelda Cloth and a Gerudo King Cloth, both of which are currently inaccessible to players under conventional means. The Princess Zelda variant sports a vibrant gold-on-green color palette, with a pair of eyes at the base and Hylian wings at the top. In contrast, the Gerudo King version of the paraglider looks much earthier, featuring deep burgundy and hunter green tones.

At launch time, there weredozens of paraglider fabricsaccessible to players, providing them with an even more customizable experience that the game’s predecessor,Breath of the Wild. That game already included a Dye Shop to make each individual player’s Link stand out from the crowd, so the addition of two more visual options for the paraglider opens up even more aesthetic possibilities for Tears of the Kingdom.
The discovery of the two new skins could point to Nintendo releasing new Amiibos for Zelda and Gannondorf as a means of unlocking the two fabrics in the game. According to the source article, the previously released Link Amiibo for Tears of the Kingdom has an identification number of 1048, while the Gerudo King and Princess Zelda fabrics are tied to the identification numbers 1049 and 1050.
As one user pointed out on Reddit, the two currently inaccessible paraglider fabrics were included in a YouTube video (seen above) uploaded by the account Lootward on May 27, which current sits at more than 90,000 views. The video features 53 distinctly different paraglider fabrics, all included in the game, and each appearing in action for five seconds. The Princess Zelda fabric can be spotted in action at the 3:10 mark, while you can see the Gerudo King fabric at the 3:35 mark.
While you’ll no longer be able to use the paraglider for the infamousitem duplication glitchthat Nintendo hassince patched out(unless you’ve purposefully suspended updates on your Switch), the paraglider is, nonetheless, a very useful tool in Link’s Tears of the Kingdom arsenal. And if customization is what you’re all about, you’ll have to wait on the official word from Nintendo as to how to unlock these two beauties.
