The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake could reportedly launch in November 2026, placing it close to one of the year’s biggest release windows. Nintendo has only confirmed that the game is planned for 2026, so the proposed date remains speculation.
The theory is based on briefly listed release dates for upcoming Kirby amiibo figures on Nintendo’s UK store. The products reportedly showed November 11 or November 12 dates before the information was removed.
No amiibo figures connected to the Ocarina of Time remake have been announced. However, Nintendo frequently releases figures from several franchises during the same period, leading fans to believe that the remake and related merchandise could arrive together.
A November release would also match the original Nintendo 64 game, which debuted in November 1998. The timing could give Nintendo a major holiday title while placing the remake near GTA VI and other high-profile releases.
The lack of a confirmed date has also encouraged speculation that the remake could move into December or even 2027. Nintendo has not provided gameplay footage, platform details beyond Nintendo Switch 2, pricing, or information about possible special editions.
Ocarina of Time remains one of Nintendo’s most celebrated games. A modern remake would introduce the adventure to players who missed the original release and the updated Nintendo 3DS version from 2011.
