But according to popular insider NateTheHate, Nintendo is going to be releasing a new Zelda Ocarina of Time Remake for the Switch 2 this year. If true, the new remake will be launching on the handheld console in Summer 2026.The major Nintendo leak was revealed during NateTheHate’s March 27 podcast episode. “We are going to receive a Zelda Ocarina of Time remake for Switch 2. This is something I was a bit hesitant about when I first heard about it. I was like, I don’t know if they would do a full remake. I thought they would do a full HD remaster. But no, I’m hearing it’s a full Ocarina of Time Remake.”Screenshot: NintendoThis is pretty huge news, as the leak essentially claims that the 1998 N64 classic will get a full reimagining from the ground up. Based on what Nate is hearing, it specifically sounds like a modern remake of Ocarina of Time, and not a simple HD port. Finally, Nate says the Zelda remake will likely not be released until the second half of 2026, so in the holiday season.New Star Fox Game Also Leaked for Summer 2026Screenshot: NintendoThe other major news to come out of this leak is that a new Star Fox Switch 2 game is reportedly releasing in Summer 2026. However, what is really interesting about this project, though, is that the leak claims it has the retro gameplay design from the classic titles, but with modern features.“The game that looks to be kicking off the Nintendo Switch 2 Summer of 2026 lineup is a brand new Star Fox game. Star Fox is coming back in Summer 2026. I’ve been told it’s a classic-style Star Fox game. The visuals are supposed to be very good, and very satisfying. And I’ve heard it has online multiplayer.”Screenshot: NintendoThe timing is also interesting, as Star Fox protagonist Fox McCloud was recently revealed to have a cameo in the new The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, which hits theaters on April 1, 2026. So perhaps the tie-in will also be used to promote the new Switch 2, supposedly releasing in a few months.All Major Switch 2 Leaks (So Far)NateTheHate also leaked a bunch of additional Nintendo Switch 2 games during his podcast. For example, he reports that the Fire Emblem Fortune’s Weave release date is in Summer 2026, although he didn’t give an exact date.
