The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake for Switch 2 will require 27 GB of storage — the largest download size yet for a mainline Switch 2 Zelda title, according to Nintendo’s official eShop listing and a leaked Japanese retail card confirmed by Genki. That figure is now live on Nintendo’s store pages and matches what physical pre-order buyers were told to expect ahead of the November 5 launch. It’s also 844 times larger than the original N64 cartridge’s 32 MB footprint. Only Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment (43.5 GB) tops it among Switch 2 Zelda-adjacent releases, but that’s a spinoff, not a mainline entry. Breath of the Wild (24.1 GB) and Tears of the Kingdom (just over 20 GB) both trail it, despite being open-world epics built from the ground up for modern hardware. The jump reflects more than just higher-resolution assets: new side quests, the Hall of Fallen Heroes. A dedicated arena for re-fighting bosses, and fully voiced cutscenes all contribute. Digital Foundry expects docked native 1080p at 60 fps, though Nintendo hasn’t confirmed resolution or frame rate. Pre-load is likely. As with past major Switch 2 launches, Nintendo may open downloads seven days before November 5. The game isn’t a 1:1 recreation. Hyrule remains compact, but traversal now includes fresh narrative detours and layered combat encounters. No price, physical SKU details, or regional pricing beyond Japan’s eShop card were disclosed in the reporting.
