The Switch 2 might get a Zelda-themed limited edition

After leaks that The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time maybe will get a remake, a new rumor suggests a limited edition ZeldaSwitch 2 themed console. Switch 2 was released worldwide on June 5, 2025, with some controversial pricing, but still an overall positive reception. The console has seen various new releases, such as the acclaimed Donkey Kong Banana and that Zelda by-product Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment. A remake of the monumental Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time could be the latest addition to this list if recent leaks are to be believed.

Rumors of one Ocarina of time remakes have been around for years, but the latest comes from Nate the Hate's massive Nintendo leak. This leak covered Nintendo's potential Switch 2 plans for 2026 and beyond, suggesting a new 3D Mario games for 2027 among other smaller projects. But for many, the most interesting thing of all was the mention of one Ocarina of time remake set for a holiday 2026 release. This project is said not to be a remaster of the existing version, but rather a remake from the ground up that would serve as Nintendo's big holiday game. Past Zelda remasters have seen accessories and merchandise released alongside, such as Skyward Sword HD's Joy-Con or the limited edition The tears of the kingdom comfort. Now a new leak points to a similar fall for the potential Ocarina of time remake.

Leak predicts a limited edition Ocarina of Time Switch 2 console

Oftentimes Nick, a largely reliable leaker who correctly predicted a major hardware announcement from Valve in 2025, has now stated that a Zelda-The Switch 2 console will be released. This console's release will coincide with the proposed one Ocarina of time remake, although the leaker is unsure whether or not the game will be included. Fixed The tears of the kingdom Sipetal Nick previously received a limited edition Switch console and points to the release's lack of an accompanying game as an indicator of the rumored Zelda theme Switch 2 won't have anything bundled. The leaker also states that the game has a very large budget, although this is all just what he's been told by an inside source. Fans are happy with this information and say they are excited for the potential remake and console.

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is responsible for an everlasting impact on 3D action-adventure gaming and carries a huge legacy. A remake could revive the 28-year-old title, modernizing some of the aspects that didn't age as gracefully, while still using today's technologies to expand on those that did, along with making the title available to new Zelda fans. With Nintendo reportedly reducing Switch 2 production due to lower demand, a limited edition Ocarina of time the Switch 2 console version would also likely boost sales of the system, with older Nintendo fans and those who haven't yet felt inclined to purchase the system perhaps taking the plunge.

As much as a remake and limited edition Switch 2 console of Ocarina of time would be amazing, leaks should always be taken with a grain of salt until officially announced. Even the most reliable of leakers get things wrong or have simply been told outdated information by their sources, and Oftentimes Nick is often wrong as well. Ocarina of time is still the highest rated game on Metacritic, and the community's undying love for it is unlikely to ever fade, with projects such as Ocarina of times latest Sega Dreamcast fanport is proof of this. This rumored remake could be hailed as one of the greatest of all time and could lead to other fan-favorite titles in the franchise getting the same treatment, leaving the future of Zelda series looks bright.
