The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Arrived on Switch 2 on November 5, Bringing the 1998 Classic to New Hardware
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time launched on Nintendo Switch 2 on November 5. First released in 1998 for the Nintendo 64, it is widely regarded as one of the most important video games ever made, and it now returns on current-generation hardware.
That sets up a striking contrast in November's release calendar: a defining classic returns in the month's first week, while Grand Theft Auto VI, closing a 13-year gap between mainline entries, arrives on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S on November 19. Two weeks apart, the two releases bookend gaming's past and present.
Sales arrangements for the Switch 2 version are as listed on Nintendo's official store. For players who grew up with the Nintendo 64 original it is a homecoming; for new players, a chance to catch up on a landmark of the medium. (Source: Nintendo)
