The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Remake Extended Clip Reveals Closer Look at Ganondorf

Nintendo has published a short clip that shows a closer look at Ganondorf in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake. Those who have the Nintendo Today! app downloaded on their mobile devices were treated to more footage from the upcoming reimagining yesterday. The video is only 16 seconds long, but it reveals an extended look at how the game is reincarnating one of video games' most iconic villains for Nintendo Switch 2.

Official text shared by Nintendo described Ganondorf as: "A man from the Gerudo, a tribe in which men are said to be born only once in a hundred years. He harbors a grand ambition to obtain the Triforce, a sacred relic rumored to grant the wish of any individual who touches it."

The new footage expands on the updated dream sequence shown previously, showing the evildoer riding on horseback as voiceover says, "And now… An evil has appeared, yearning after that power." While technically a scene players have already been looking at for decades, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake will alter the moment with more than just shiny new graphics. As highlighted in the Nintendo Today! post, while the extended clip shows that the Switch 2 version of the scene is running in slow motion, the original Nintendo 64 and 3DS remake versions show Ganondorf moving like normal. This small change suggests that the November reimagining will come with several tweaks to a classic that fans may want to prepare themselves for.

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake launches for Switch 2 on November 5, 2026.
