How Big Is The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Remake?

According to Nintendo's Australian website, the Ocarina of Time Remake is estimated to be around 27GB. Japanese eShop Cards have also claimed the game will be about that size.

While it isn't a massive game, it is notably 800 times larger than the N64 original. Back when the game launched in 1998, Ocarina of Time was shipped on a 32MB cartridge, which makes the upcoming remake remarkably larger.

Of course, it won't hog your storage. In fact, compared to 200GB Call of Duty Games, the Ocarina of Time Remake is surprisingly light. However, with the Ocarina of Time Remake sitting at 27GB, it has officially become the largest mainline Zelda game on the Switch. For reference, Breath of the Wild is 24GB, while Tears of the Kingdom on the Switch 2 is 20GB.
