Nintendo has released new Zelda Ocarina of Time Remake gameplay footage in Japan. The latest trailer gives us our first look at Dark Link, while showing off expanded combat and more battles from the remake.

Zelda Ocarina of Time Remake Combat gameplay released

Nintendo has just released a new Zelda Ocarina of Time Remake trailer that features new combat gameplay footage. The combat trailer was originally uploaded to Nintendo Japan’s website and features new clips not included in the recent overview trailer that was released in North America.

The short video opens with Ganondorf playing an organ before cutting to a montage of Link battling various enemies throughout the story. More importantly, the Zelda Ocarina of Time Remake trailer gives us a closer look at how combat has been updated in the 2026 reimagining.

For example, combat while riding Epona appears to have been greatly expanded. The footage also shows how battles take advantage of the remake’s new camera system, which lets players freely control their view at all times.

Zelda Ocarina of Time Remake Reveals First Look at Dark Link

The latest Ocarina of Time Remake trailer also gives us our first look at the new Dark Link design. The iconic shadow version of Link returns as a mini-boss in the Water Temple, and his encounter already looks much more complex than it was in the original game.

One particularly awesome moment shows Dark Link flipping and landing directly on the blade of Link’s sword. Fans of the original will recognize the move, but seeing it recreated with the remake’s updated graphics makes the encounter look even more intimidating.

For your convenience, we have embedded the combat trailer below so you can watch all the new footage originally shared on Nintendo Japan’s website:

Between the expanded Epona combat and our first glimpse of Dark Link, Nintendo is giving longtime fans plenty of reasons to revisit Hyrule. With launch just two weeks away, we won’t have to wait much longer to see how the rest of Zelda Ocarina of Time Remake has been reimagined.

Zelda Ocarina of Time Remake Features Revealed

More importantly, the new Zelda Ocarina of Time Remake overview trailer also revealed several new gameplay features that were previously unannounced. To make it easier to track, we have compiled every new feature revealed below so it’s easy to find them all in one place.

Play Ocarina Songs With a Real Instrument

The Zelda: Ocarina of Time Remake overview trailer confirms that players can use a real-life ocarina or another instrument to play songs in the game. Through microphone input, the remake picks up the notes in real time.

Players who don’t have an ocarina lying around the house can also whistle or hum the notes. That gives you another way to perform the game’s iconic songs.

Display Defeated Enemies in the Hall of Fallen Foes

A new Zelda: Ocarina of Time Remake feature called the Hall of Fallen Foes lets players walk around a museum of enemies they have defeated.

After defeating a foe, you can unlock a detailed statue of them to put on display. The feature gives players a closer look at the remake’s updated enemy designs while building a collection throughout their adventure.

Challenge Bosses Again With Rematches

Nintendo has also confirmed a boss rematch feature for Zelda: Ocarina of Time Remake. Players can approach select statues in the Hall of Fallen Foes to trigger another fight. So, if you want to revisit a favorite battle, the new feature gives you a way to challenge those bosses again.

Finally, the overview trailer shows off more of the reimagined dungeons players will explore. From the Fire Temple to key boss fights, the footage gives us an extensive look at the remake’s gameplay ahead of its November 5 launch.

We also get a brief glimpse of a puzzle section, as Link dashes under a falling floor to avoid being crushed. While the footage is on the short side, Nintendo appears to be releasing a collection of small snippets to give players a preview of what they can expect from the 2026 remake when it launches on November 5.

Zelda Ocarina of Time Remake Shows Off Updated Poe Sisters

The new Zelda: Ocarina of Time Remake gameplay footage also shows the updated models for the Poe Sisters: Joelle, Beth, Amy, and Meg. In the N64 classic, players must solve their puzzles and defeat them to recover their colored flames and progress through the dungeon.

Based on the new clip, it appears that the main Forest Temple puzzle challenge will remain unchanged. However, the footage shows much more detailed models of the Poe Sisters. For example, they now wear jewelry on their heads, and their outfits feature textured cloth.

Finally, Nintendo teased the reimagined Forest Temple with a description of the dungeon: “A temple awaiting beyond the maze forest, where distorted spaces and illusory devices lie in wait.” This isn’t the first preview Nintendo has released. The company recently posted gameplay clips featuring Hyrule Castle Town, Death Mountain, and Zora’s Domain.
