Where to Buy Ocarina of Time Remake: Price, Editions & Pre-Order Bonuses

How much does the Ocarina of Time remake cost?

The game launches on November 5, 2026, on Nintendo Switch 2 only.

Should I buy the physical or digital version?

• Physical costs $10 more in the US but can be resold or lent. The first print run has a textured foil cover while supplies last, from any store. GamesRadar reports that the full game is on the cartridge, but Nintendo has not said so directly.
• Digital is cheaper, can be pre-loaded before launch and never needs swapping. It needs about 27 GB of storage.

Are there pre-order bonuses?

• United States: no store-exclusive bonus. Best Buy opens at midnight on launch day, and My Best Buy Plus or Total members get 10% back on pre-orders.
• United Kingdom: My Nintendo Store sold a bundle with an Ocarina pin for £2.99 more. It has sold out.
• Japan: My Nintendo Store gives a 40th Anniversary wallpaper with the digital version (until November 23) and art cards, a stand and stickers with the physical version.
• My Nintendo Gold Points: Nintendo has stopped giving Gold Points for game purchases, so there are no points to collect.

The Nintendo Switch 2 – The Legend of Zelda 40th Anniversary Edition comes out on October 29, 2026, for $519.99 in the US. The game is not included. There is no console-and-game bundle, so budget for both.
