In order to increase your inventory slots in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, you’ll first need to collect some of the Korok Seeds scattered around Hyrule. These collectibles are obtained by discovering Koroks in the overworld and obtaining their reward after getting through their unique quests.

This is easier said than done as there are literally hundreds of Koroks scattered throughout Hyrule and the Sky Islands. However, once you successfully find these elusive tiny beings, they’ll reward you with one Korok Seed – or two if you complete a longer Korok puzzle.

Once you have a veritable handful of Korok Seeds, you’ll need to take them to Hetsu – the gigantic Korok who will turn them into inventory slots.

You can find Hetsu for the first time in the southeast in Lindor’s Brow Skyview Tower. Simply talk to him and he’ll offer to increase one of your inventory slots. After this, Hetsu will take his leave, explaining how he wants to head east in search of people.

The next location Hetsu will appear at is Lookout Landing. Simply teleport to the Lookout Landing Skyview Tower and head directly left to see Hetsu once again. From here, you’ll be able to spend your any future Korok Seeds.

So, there you have it, that’s everything you need to know about expanding your inventory slots and where to find Hetsu in Tears of the Kingdom. Be sure to check out our The Legend of Zelda page for all the latest news and guides.
