Nintendo Announces Ocarina of Time Remake for Switch 2

On June 9, 2026, Nintendo surprised fans with the official announcement of a full-scale remake of the legendary 1998 title, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.

Designed for the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2, the game is set to launch later in 2026, marking a significant milestone during the franchise's 40th anniversary year.

While Nintendo revealed a brief teaser trailer, it notably lacked gameplay footage, opting instead for a stylized, tapestry-inspired look at Link’s journey.

With the original game holding a historic Metacritic score of 99, the remake faces high expectations to modernize the classic experience without compromising the magic that made it a masterpiece.

As the gaming community eagerly awaits further details, this project serves as a perfect precursor to the live-action Zelda film arriving in 2027.
