Nintendo is commemorating the 40th anniversary of The Legend of Zelda with specially themed Nintendo Switch 2 hardware. The company unveiled the announcement through a video presentation, revealing a dedicated console edition featuring the franchise’s iconic aesthetic. Alongside the new console, Nintendo will release a reimagined version of Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. The special edition system becomes available on October 29, while the game itself launches on November 5.
The themed Nintendo Switch 2 draws inspiration from Link’s signature color palette of gold, black, and green. The package includes more than just the console itself—Nintendo is offering a coordinated display stand, carrying case equipped with a screen protector, and a Pro Controller, all decorated with the recognizable Triforce symbol. Each accessory maintains visual consistency with the overall design aesthetic.
This hardware release represents part of a broader multi-year celebration of the Zelda franchise. Nintendo plans to continue the anniversary festivities through 2027, including additional merchandise launches and special events. Specific pricing information and purchase availability details have not yet been released, though Nintendo indicated these details would be shared through official channels.
