The digital listing for the Switch 2 version of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is now live on the eShop and includes the game’s estimated file size.
According to Nintendo’s official store, Link’s classic Nintendo 64 quest “remade for a whole new era” is estimated to be 27 GB.
If you’re wondering, the recent Star Fox remake, which landed on Switch 2 in June, required 15.1 GB of space. As for Link’s new releases, Tears of the Kingdom on Switch 2 is listed as having a 20GB file size, and Breath of the Wild requires 24GB.
Nintendo’s official description for Ocarina of Time Switch 2 states that the game has “completely overhauled visuals.” It also adds dubbed cutscenes, expanded dialogue, and features symphonic orchestral music.
Keep in mind that this is an “estimated” file size for Ocarina of Time, which means it could change between now and the game’s release in November. You can check out the official cover art for the game in our previous article:
