Early on in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom<\/em>, Link (that\u2019s you) loses his arm in a terrible accident. Fortunately, your mysterious savior, Rauru, comes to your rescue, amputates your FUBARed arm, and replaces it with his very own. Soon enough, you need to use your new Ultrahand and its Ability to Create, and it can be a little tricky to get used to.<\/p>
How to use the Ultrahand in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom<\/em><\/h2>
When you first get the Ultrahand, you just need to press L to activate it. Once you\u2019ve got other special equipment, then you\u2019ll need to hold L to open the radial menu, then use the right stick to select the Ultrahand when you want to use it.<\/p>

Anyway, once the Ultrahand is activated, you\u2019ll see red, shimmery, ever-expanding circles emanating from around you, and you\u2019ll get a crosshair on your HUD. Look around a bit and you should see that some objects are now highlighted orange. If you aim the crosshair at those objects, they\u2019ll turn green. Any object that\u2019s highlighted in this way can be grabbed using the Ultrahand. So, to grab an object, aim the crosshair at it, and press A.<\/p>
Once you\u2019ve grabbed an object it\u2019ll move when you move. So, you can move it back and forth and side to side by moving the left stick. And you can move it up and down and side to side around yourself using the right stick. You can also move it away from and towards yourself by pressing up and down on the D-pad.<\/p>
