The Ocarina of Time Switch 2 remake launches November 5, 2026 for $59.99 digital or $69.99 physical, and as of October 20, 2026, Amazon and Walmart have cut the physical edition to $59.99, with a foil-cover box while supplies last. Here’s exactly what it costs, where the discount is live, and what, if anything, you get beyond the base game.
How Much Does Ocarina of Time Cost on Switch 2
Nintendo’s own pricing is straightforward: $59.99 for the digital eShop version, $69.99 for the physical cartridge. There’s no premium edition above that and no cheaper way in below the digital price, at least not from Nintendo directly.
| Edition | List Price | Discounted Price (Amazon/Walmart, as of Oct 20, 2026) |
|---|---|---|
| Digital (eShop) | $59.99 | Not discounted |
| Physical (cartridge) | $69.99 | $59.99, with first-run foil cover art |
The $10 Discount Brings Physical Down to Digital’s Price
The discount doesn’t make the physical edition cheaper than digital, it just closes the gap: $10 off the $69.99 cartridge lands it at the same $59.99 Nintendo already charges for the eShop version, and you keep the box, the foil cover, and resale value digital doesn’t offer. With roughly 16 days left between the October 20, 2026 discount and the November 5, 2026 launch, retailer pre-order promotions can also end without warning, so this isn’t guaranteed to still be live by the time you read this.
Is There a Collector’s Edition?
No. Nintendo is not selling a statue bundle, steelbook, or early-access tier for this remake, a contrast with how some other publishers price anniversary remakes. What is coming: two amiibo figures and a physical Ocarina peripheral, both planned for 2027, plus a Lego set featuring Link and Epona that was announced without a release date or price. None of those are available to pre-order alongside the game yet.
What’s Actually New in the Remake
Nintendo confirmed three new additions not in the 1998 original during the September 8, 2026 Zelda 40th Anniversary Direct: a dedicated sprint move, a jump button, and diving. Our full breakdown of that Direct, including gameplay footage, covers the mechanical changes in more detail; this page is about what it costs to actually own it.
