Zelda fans should Google ‘Ocarina of Time’ if they like fun Easter eggs

As the highly anticipated The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake prepares to arrive on Nintendo Switch 2, Google has paid homage to the beloved game with an Easter egg. Those curious about the upcoming remake, slated for November 5, can uncover the surprise by simply typing "Ocarina of Time" into Google's search bar. Upon doing so, the iconic Master Sword weapon materializes in the corner of the screen, perched atop its pedestal.

By clicking on the sword, it becomes part of the pedestal and transports users back to a version of the Google search page that resembles its appearance in 1998, the year the original game launched.

This Easter egg provides an amusing nod to fans, reminding them of the game's mechanics. Within the remake, Ocarina of Time is split into two time periods, separated by seven years. Placing the Master Sword back on its pedestal serves as the means for players to journey back to the past. While 28 years have passed since the original game's release, the Easter egg still offers a delightful experience.

Moreover, the search page devoid of AI features and other search functionalities creates a nostalgic atmosphere, encouraging users to relish the moment before it inevitably disappears.
