Five answers before you scroll

The store title is The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. “Remake” is the name players use. Nintendo EPD built it and Nintendo publishes it. It is a Switch 2 game only.

The release date is 5 November 2026. US digital unlocks at 12:00 a.m. Eastern, which secondary reports place at 05:00 UTC. Other regions follow local midnight. Nintendo has not published a Europe or Japan clock.

Metacritic shows 96 from 84 reviews and OpenCritic shows a 95 average with 100% of 45 critics recommending it, both read on 5 Nov 2026. IGN scored 9/10. Eurogamer scored 5/5.

This is not a PC, PlayStation, or Xbox release. It is also not the 2011 3DS version, and it does not include Master Quest. There is no in-game redeem code.

What changed in the rebuild

Cutscenes are fully voiced. Link stays silent. You can jump and dash on command, aim with motion controls, and play songs into the Switch 2 microphone. Castle Town is a 3D space you walk through, and time keeps moving indoors.

A Threads of Time log tracks goals. A Hall of Fallen Foes lets you look at statues and fight bosses again. The world is still a set of regions, not an open field. Developers said they wanted to avoid that mix-up.
