With reimagined visuals, orchestral music, voice acting, expanded cutscenes, reworked camera and movement controls and more, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is reborn for a new generation and makes a perfect entry point into the series.
The release of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is part of the Legend of Zelda 40th Anniversary celebration, which marks four decades since the first game in the series launched in Japan in 1986. The celebration also features other games and products, a worldwide concert tour beginning in 2027 that celebrates music from the series and The Legend of Zelda live-action film, coming to theaters on April 30, 2027.
