The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Remake Is $10 Ahead of Release

Nintendo has announced that the highly anticipated remake of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time will be available for pre-order next week, starting from $59.88. This price is $10 lower than the standard physical edition's regular price of $69.99. The remake, set for release on November 5th exclusively for Nintendo Switch 2, brings a host of enhancements to the classic 1998 adventure.

It features overhauled graphics, updated controls that include roll-to-dash mechanics, and a newly orchestrated take on Koji Kondo’s iconic score. While the remake aims to respect the spirit of the original Nintendo 64 title, it also seeks to appeal to modern gamers accustomed to third-person action games. The first batch of physical copies will come with special packaging featuring textured foil cover art.

Ocarina of Time is a timeless classic, and its November 5th launch puts it just two weeks ahead of the release of Grand Theft Auto VI, though the two games cater to very different gaming experiences.
