A recent datamine shared by YouTuber and dataminer Austin John Plays has drawn renewed attention to the remake of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, suggesting an unannounced amiibo entry and content that some fans connect to Majora’s Mask.
Nintendo has made no formal comment; the findings come from file analysis rather than an official announcement.
Background and context
The original The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time debuted on the Nintendo 64 in 1998, and The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask followed in 2000.
Nintendo has revisited both titles several times — Ocarina of Time received a Nintendo 3DS remaster in 2011 and Majora’s Mask received a 3DS version in 2015.
Amiibo figures, which first launched in November 2014, are commonly used by Nintendo to unlock in-game bonuses across Switch and other platforms.
Datamine findings (reported)
According to the datamine posted by Austin John Plays, the remake’s code contains three amiibo slots.
The first two slots reportedly correspond to Link and Zelda figures that had been announced previously.
A third slot appears under the identifier "Mask_103." The datamine lists the two announced figures with an apparent 2027 designation for "Young Link" and "Young Zelda," and marks "Mask_101" and "Mask_102" as linked to those figures in the code.
Paraphrased summary of notable files
The datamine indicates the third mask entry, labeled "Mask_103," includes descriptors such as "rare," "otherworldly," "scary," and "monster," and contains close to 200 lines of dialogue.
Crucially, the files reviewed in the datamine show no associated textures, models, or other visual assets for that entry — only text strings.
Additional datamine note
A separate reported file inspection also referenced a potential Master Quest DLC entry for the Ocarina of Time remake.
As with the amiibo data, these items are present in extracted files but have not been confirmed by Nintendo.
What this means and what to expect
File data can indicate developer intentions, placeholder content, or retired assets; none of the datamined material constitutes an official announcement.
For confirmation of amiibo releases, DLC plans, or any new Zelda remakes, Nintendo typically uses channels such as Nintendo Direct and official eShop listings.
Until Nintendo provides an official statement, the datamine should be treated as unverified information originating from third-party file analysis.
