If you're a player who wants to use and abuse stealth in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, the best thing you can do is catch fireflies around Hyrule.

Catching them is simpler than it sounds. That said, see below how I managed to catch the creatures!

How to catch fireflies in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

Fireflies, or as they are called in English in the game "Sunset Firefly", are creatures that glow softly in the dark. They serve as an ingredient in your recipes.

Then, when added to a cauldron along with monster parts, it will create an elixir that makes you able to move silently.

The first fireflies I found in Tears of the Kingdom were on the game's initial island. They are near the place where we found the cauldron in our article on how to cook in the game.

After arriving at the location, you must press the left analog stick to make Link crouch down, and then sneak up on the creatures. When you get close to them, you'll be prompted to interact with the "A" button on your controller.

After pressing the button, you will then retrieve them and be able to create your elixirs.

Finally, Zelda: TOTK arrives on May 12th for the Nintendo Switch.
