Nintendo’s Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake has set a new sales record. The Nintendo Switch 2 title sold 5.2 million copies worldwide in its first four days after launching this month, Nintendo has confirmed. The company said the release is now the fastest-selling Nintendo-published Switch 2 game globally, as well as in the US, Canada and Latin America. The record specifically covers games published by Nintendo for the console. The remake brings the 1998 Nintendo 64 adventure to Switch 2 and forms part of the Zelda franchise’s 40th-anniversary celebrations, which also include merchandise, a planned concert tour and a live-action film.
What is the Ocarina of Time remake
The Switch 2 release is a full remake of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, originally released for Nintendo 64 in 1998. It follows a young Link on a journey across Hyrule, with the story unfolding over two different eras. The remake revisits that adventure for Nintendo’s newer console. The supplied report describes positive critical and audience reception but does not provide review scores or a detailed breakdown of sales by region.
How the release fits into Zelda’s 40th anniversary
The first Legend of Zelda game launched in Japan in 1986. Nintendo is marking the franchise’s 40th anniversary with products and experiences extending beyond the Ocarina of Time remake. The anniversary plans include other games and merchandise, alongside a worldwide concert tour scheduled to begin in 2027. A live-action The Legend of Zelda film is scheduled to reach cinemas on April 30, 2027.
