Nintendo Confirms Zelda Ocarina of Time Remake for 2026 on Switch 2

Nintendo announced that a full remake of the classic game The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time will launch on the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 console in late 2026. The confirmation came during a June Nintendo Direct presentation that was also part of the company’s latest financial report. No exact release day was given, but the company indicated a holiday‑season window, with leaks suggesting an October to December timeframe and a retail price of about $59.99. The announcement places the remake alongside other upcoming first‑party titles such as Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave (September) and Switch Sports Resort (October). The remake is expected to feature modernized graphics, realistic lighting, and updated character models, including the series protagonist Link, while preserving the original game’s storyline and gameplay.
