Add ARY News on Google AAResize Nintendo has announced a remake of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, bringing the 1998 classic to its upcoming Switch 2 console.
The company made the reveal during a livestream showing off upcoming titles, confirming the game will arrive later this year. That timing lines up with the 40th anniversary of the Zelda franchise, although Nintendo didn’t share much else — no gameplay details, no updates on what’s changing.
If you’ve played the original, you already know why this is a big deal. Released on the Nintendo 64, Ocarina of Time is still considered one of the most important video games ever made. It helped define 3D adventure games and introduced the lock-on combat system that so many games still use today.
