Nintendo Switch 2 Leaks Reveal Zelda Ocarina of Time Remake, Star Fox Revival, and More

There are a lot of new stories and reports going around that Nintendo is planning to release its new hybrid platform in 2026, which is usually just called the Switch 2. There are rumors that several well-known games are in development. Just a few of these reports might be true, and Nintendo could have some of its best software in years.

A remake of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is one of the most talked-about projects. This game is often considered one of the best ever. Reports say this remake might come out by the end of the year, but it's still not clear what the new graphics will look like or how the game will be played.

Fans aren't sure if Nintendo will go with a more modern redesign or stick closer to the original's famous look.

Because they don't know what will happen. Just as exciting is the news that Star Fox is coming back. Sources say a new entry could be announced as early as April, with a release in June or July. If this is true, it would be a big return for the series, which hasn't had a big game since Star Fox Zero.

This could also happen at a time when people are once again interested in the character Fox McCloud, especially since he's supposed to appear in an upcoming Mario movie. Along with these big names, a new Fire Emblem game is said to be aiming for a summer release. Video Games Chronicle and other news sources say that 2026 will be busy, but a new 3D Mario game might not come out until 2027.

A leaked plan reveals remakes, sequels, and long-awaited returns to old franchises.

A message from a user that appeared online, adding to the rumors. Some people think it may be true because the comment seemed to foreshadow several statements that are very similar to current rumors. This tip says that MercurySteam, the company that made Metroid Dread and Metroid: Samus Returns, is also working on a remake of Super Metroid.

It's interesting that the remake is said to use pixel art, which has prompted some fans to argue, since they were hoping for a more contemporary look like in Dread. Plus, the same source says that MercurySteam is working on a brand-new Metroid game that might be a straight follow-up to Dread. If this is true, it means Nintendo is putting a lot of effort into the Metroid series.

A new Wario Land game and an improved version of Nintendo Switch Sports are also said to be in the works. Even though the reporter didn't mention these titles in his statement, the fact that they were in the original comment has made fans even more interested as they try to figure out which information is real and which is just guesswork.

Even though there are more leaks, a lot about these projects remains unknown, especially who is in charge of major remakes like Ocarina of Time. There is still plenty of room for surprises when Nintendo finally talks about its plans, since there are no screenshots, trailers, or public confirmations yet.

Right now, everyone is waiting for Nintendo's next big event, which should happen around June. Reports indicate that 2026 will be a big year for the company's next-generation platform. It will likely include both old favorites and brand-new games in some of the most popular gaming franchises.
