As we learned just a few hours ago, the reveal trailer for the Switch 2 remake of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is officially the most-viewed trailer from any of the Summer gaming showcases that aired. That right there is proof positive that there’s all kinds of excitement for the upcoming title. The teaser pretty much confirmed the game’s existence and gave us the smallest sliver of in-game graphics, but everyone is dying for more info, and today brings us a tiny tidbit to mull over.
Zelda superfans have been desperate to find new details on what Zelda: Ocarina of Time will be like on Switch 2, and that’s led them to scouring the source code of the game’s listing on Nintendo.com. Believe it or not, that source code does include a description of the game that you won’t find anywhere else. It’s short and sweet, and you can read it below.
The N64 classic reborn as a full remake for Nintendo Switch 2. Experience Ocarina of Time with stunning visuals, updated designs, and timeless gameplay.
That verbiage would make it seem like Zelda: Ocarina of Time on Switch 2 is going to be a pretty straightforward 1:1 remake with the original N64 game. There’s been a lot of questions about whether this game would be mostly a visual overhaul or if it would go the remake route that titles like Final Fantasy 7 and Resident Evil 4 have. While it’s not definitive proof just yet, this little blurb does make it seem more like the title will refresh the graphics, but stick with the tried-and-true gameplay.
