Nintendo has announced that The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake has sold more than 5.2 million copies worldwide within its first four days on Nintendo Switch 2. The game launched on November 5, 2026, and has now recorded the highest global first-four-day sales of any Nintendo-published title on the console.
According to Nintendo, Japan accounted for 810,000 units of the worldwide total. That means approximately 4.39 million copies were sold in other markets during the same period.
The Zelda Ocarina of Time Switch 2 sales milestone makes the remake Nintendo’s biggest launch on the platform when measured by its first four days of worldwide sales. The company did not provide a breakdown of physical and digital purchases.
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is a complete remake of the original Nintendo 64 game, which first launched in 1998. The story follows Link as he travels between two different periods of his life, playing as both Young Link and Adult Link.
Each version of Link has access to different abilities and items, with players required to use both time periods to progress through the adventure.
The remake also supports ZELDA NOTES, a companion service available through the Nintendo Switch App on compatible smart devices. The feature provides access to various tools designed to assist players during gameplay.
