Ocarina Of Time Remake’s Map And Level Design Looks Quite Similar To The Original So Far

Nintendo's Zelda 40th Anniversary Direct has given us the first gameplay deep dive, showing how the 1998 N64 classic has been updated for Nintendo Switch 2, from a new detailed art style to new control additions like a jump button and motion-control aiming. However, from this first look, it also looks like the game will be sticking closely, if not identically, to the original game's layout. The environments shown in the starting Kokiri Forest area are a lot more detailed, and you can now see them from a new perspective thanks to a free rotating camera. Although Ocarina of Time may not be hugely expanding the original on a similar scale as Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, it's also reflected in its $60 price point for the digital version of the game, which is still less than the full price of new releases--the physical edition will, however, cost $70.
