The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time<\/a> is getting a fancy new makeover on the Switch 2 this November, and in case you missed it, Nintendo recently shared artwork of the game’s world map on its social media pages.<\/p>\n

This classic fantasy-style map includes all the major landmarks you may already be familiar with if you’ve played the original N64 title (or 3DS release). The overworld Hyrule Field connects to everything, and surrounding it we’ve got Hyrule Castle, Death Mountain, Zora’s Domain, Kokiri Forest, Lake Hylia and Gerudo Valley.<\/p>\n

Like other Zelda titles, you can expect Link to have access to interactive maps and much more detailed ones (like the one in the screenshot above) when the Switch 2 version is released, but this is it for now.<\/p>\n

Nintendo: Behold, Hyrule!<\/p>\n

If you are curious to see how this compares to the original release, here’s a look at the game’s map as it appears in the Nintendo 64 game manual. More detailed maps show up as you explore dungeons, temples and other areas of Hyrule.<\/p>\n

You see more Ocarina of Time Switch 2 and N64 comparisons in our previous post. We noted the maps and design of the new game aren’t a straight 1:1 reworking, with different shaped minimaps and minor topographical alterations to Hyrule Field.<\/p>\n

What do you think of the latest Ocarina of Time map shared by Nintendo? Notice anything else? Let us know in the comments.<\/p>\n
