As expected, Nintendo finally showed us more of its Ocarina of Time remake during the Zelda 40th anniversary Direct - a lot of it. It not only confirmed that the remake will launch exclusively on Switch 2 before the end of 2026, but also that Nintendo is the only studio not afraid of GTA 6.
The Ocarina of Time remake is now confirmed to be released on November 5, 2026, just two weeks before GTA 6 arrives on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. Almost no other developer has been bold enough to try and steal away some of the oxygen GTA 6 will inevitably suck out of the room when it releases on November 19. Nintendo is confident enough in the popularity of Ocarina of Time, and the quality of its remake, that it doesn't believe putting its biggest game of the year in the same release window will affect sales.
As soon as the Direct was over, Nintendo opened pre-orders for the remake. Slightly more expensive than its last N64 remake, Star Fox, the digital version of Ocarina costs $59.99, while a physical copy is $69.99. Nintendo announced earlier this year that its physical releases would be $10 more expensive than their digital equivalents on Switch 2 moving forward.
As well as this release date reveal, we got another look at the gameplay. This showed some of the changes being made in the remake, including the ability to jump at will, rather than it being an automatic action when we get close to the ledge. On top of that, we have better camera control, since we're no longer restricted by the Nintendo 64 controller.
There are other modern comforts included too, such as an objective tracker. This means you shouldn't be utterly lost if you take a break from the game. We also finally have a way to actually move faster, rather than just making Link perform roll after roll.
