A Norwegian retailer has listed Monolith Soft as the developer behind a purported remaster of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, prompting renewed interest in who is handling one of Nintendo's most iconic properties.
The original The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time launched on Nintendo 64 in 1998 and received a widely noted 3DS remaster in 2011 developed by Grezzo.
Nintendo has historically been selective about disclosing external development partners, making retailer and distribution listings a frequent source of early clues.
What the listing says
A product page on Elkjøp — which was flagged by NotebookCheck — identifies Monolith Soft as the developer and Bergsala as the publisher for the listed entry.
Journalistically restated: the Elkjøp page attributes development to Monolith Soft and credits Bergsala, the long-standing Nordic distributor for Nintendo products, as the publisher for its regional listing.
Official confirmation remains absent
There is currently no official statement from Nintendo or Monolith Soft confirming their involvement in any new Ocarina of Time project.
To date, Nintendo has not published details about a new Ocarina of Time remaster on the Nintendo Switch, the eShop, or via any Nintendo Direct presentation.
In other words, the retailer entry is a claim on a commercial page and not an authoritative release announcement.
Why Monolith Soft is a focal point
Monolith Soft is best known for the Xenoblade Chronicles series and has provided technical and development support on major Nintendo projects in recent years.
That history of large-scale RPG development and support work is why listings that attach Monolith Soft to high-profile Nintendo titles attract attention.
Separately, Grezzo retains a documented track record with Nintendo remasters, having developed the 3DS remakes of Ocarina of Time and Majora’s Mask and the Switch remake of Link’s Awakening.
What to watch next
Until Nintendo issues an official announcement — typically shared through channels such as Nintendo Direct or the Nintendo eShop news feed — retailers’ product pages should be treated as provisional information.
For authoritative updates, monitor Nintendo’s corporate releases and verified studio statements.
If and when Nintendo confirms a new Ocarina of Time project, it will establish the official developer and publication timeline.
Bottom line
The Elkjøp listing is notable and worth tracking, but it does not replace official confirmation.
Monolith Soft’s pedigree makes the attribution plausible to observers, yet no verified announcement has been made.
Fans and industry watchers should continue to rely on Nintendo’s official outlets for definitive details.
