A retailer listing has sparked a new rumor that Monolith Soft is the sole developer of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake. The listing, reported by multiple outlets, ties the next Nintendo Switch 2 Zelda project to the studio known for its work on other Nintendo games and for its own titles.
Both sources describe the claim as unverified and based on retailer information. Vice frames the rumor as a potential indication of who would lead development, noting Monolith Soft’s connection to Nintendo and its portfolio. My Nintendo News similarly points to Monolith Soft’s track record and support work on first-party titles, but emphasizes that it is not yet confirmed whether the retailer data reflects the actual development team.
At this stage, the differing angles mainly involve how much context is provided about Monolith Soft’s history: one outlet focuses on the implications for the Switch 2 game’s lead developer, while the other highlights the studio’s prior Nintendo support. Neither outlet cites official confirmation from Nintendo, and both present the information as a rumor.
