What kind of problem

Something else

What happened

In the Kokiri Shop in Kokiri Forest, the shopkeeper is missing from behind the counter. Pressing A at the counter does nothing, so the shop can’t be used at all. That includes buying the Deku Shield, which the story needs before Mido lets you pass, so this may block progress early.

Where in the game

Kokiri Shop, Kokiri Forest, child Link, after getting the Kokiri Sword, daytime

How often

Every time

Graphics card and driver version

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080, driver 610.88

CPU, RAM and operating system

Ryzen 5 3600, 16 GB, Windows 11 Pro (build 26200)

Changes from the defaults

No response

Other software hooked into the game

No, nothing hooked in

Thanks for the report. Reports of the same problem are now collected in #2506, which lists this one with your details and links back here, so one fix closes them together and the open list stays readable. Follow #2506 for the fix, and add new details there (or here). If this turns out to be a separate problem it will be reopened.
