Zelda: Ocarina of Time on Switch 2 sells over 5.2 million copies in four days

Nintendo announced on 11 November 2026 that The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time for Nintendo Switch 2 sold more than 5.2 million units worldwide in the first four days after its 5 November launch. In the release, published in the Investors section of its official website, the company specifies that the total includes 810,000 units sold in Japan.

This is, Nintendo writes, the highest global first-four-day result for any game the company has published on Nintendo Switch 2. A footnote in the release says the figure includes both physical and digital versions.

The title is a full remake of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, released on Nintendo 64 in 1998, and is available only on Switch 2. Nintendo describes it as a version with reimagined graphics and updated gameplay that preserves the experience of the original game: Link moves between two eras, as a child and as an adult, with different abilities and items in each period.

For this console exclusive Statcade has no concurrent-player readings, as it does for Steam titles: the only sales figure available is the one released by Nintendo, which did not break the total down further between physical and digital or give sales in individual other markets.
