Experience an adventure that bridges the generations in *The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time* on Nintendo Switch 2. With a revamped visual style, an updated soundtrack and a modernised gameplay experience, this classic adventure has been reimagined for a whole new era.
The Triforce is a magical artefact consisting of three golden triangles. They represent wisdom, power and courage. According to legend, the Triforce grants the wishes of those who lay hands on it. For this reason, its very existence has been a source of endless conflict in Hyrule.
Guided by fate, Link sets out on an adventure that takes him across Hyrule and through two different eras. Experience this timeless story and its colourful characters, brought to life through new dialogue and fully voiced cutscenes.
At the heart of this majestic kingdom lies Hyrule Field, a central grassland from which paths lead to bustling towns, a menacing volcano, a picturesque lake, a barren desert and many other fascinating locations.
Cover long distances on foot using your new dash ability and leap freely over chasms and obstacles at the touch of a button. You can even befriend a loyal steed, which you’ll be able to ride later on in your adventure.
Explore every nook and cranny of the kingdom whilst helping the people of Hyrule to earn rewards for your efforts. Time passes in the game no matter where you are, and as the sun sets, you may encounter both new acquaintances and old enemies.
Not sure where to head next? ‘Threads of Time’ recaps the story so far, shows your current objectives and lets you view the magnificent tapestry in which Link’s journey is woven.
Across Hyrule, you’ll find dungeons and sacred shrines brimming with challenging puzzles, fearsome enemies and tempting treasures. Use your wits and the items at your disposal to overcome environmental obstacles and logic-based challenges, and to defeat the malevolent monsters lurking in the depths…
Whether you’re battling monsters, solving puzzles or exploring the world, you must be prepared for any situation! Switch seamlessly between weapons and items mid-action, and aim precisely with your slingshot, bow and other tools using the motion controls. Certain items are only available to Link during specific eras of the adventure.
During your adventure, you’ll learn songs that Link can play on his ocarina. These mysterious melodies play an important role in Link’s journey: for example, they allow you to open up new paths and turn day into night.
Play the right notes using the buttons, or try humming the tunes into the Nintendo Switch 2’s built-in microphone. You can even try playing them on a real ocarina!
