Nintendo has confirmed the internal team responsible for the recently announced remake of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time for Nintendo Switch 2. In an Ask the Developers segment, Nintendo identified Nintendo EPD Production Group No. 3 as the studio that developed the Switch 2 remake. Background and developer context The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time originally launched on the Nintendo 64 in 1998 and is widely regarded as one of the most influential 3D action-adventure games in the industry. Nintendo EPD (Entertainment Planning & Development) is Nintendo’s internal development division formed in 2015 when its legacy development teams were reorganized. Within EPD, Production Group No. 3 is the team Nintendo cited as the developer for the Switch 2 remake. What Nintendo said In the Ask the Developers disclosure, Nintendo stated that the Switch 2 remake was handled by Nintendo EPD Production Group No. 3. The company noted the group’s role within EPD as the team associated with Nintendo’s mainline 3D Zelda projects. That statement clarifies internal development responsibilities for the remake. Why this matters Identifying Production Group No. 3 as the developer places the remake squarely in the hands of the internal team Nintendo uses for major 3D Zelda efforts. For industry watchers and developers, such credits are important for understanding which internal resources and experience pipelines were applied to a high-profile remake on Nintendo’s next-generation hardware. Platform and presentation notes Nintendo presented the disclosure as part of its Ask the Developers communications; the remake is confirmed for Nintendo Switch 2. Nintendo continues to distribute digital titles and updates through its eShop storefront, while using direct communication channels such as Ask the Developers segments and Nintendo Direct events to share developer information. What is not included Nintendo’s Ask the Developers segment provided the developer credit but did not attach additional production timeline details, exact release history for regional launches of the remake, or future project roadmaps for Production Group No. 3. Any further details will depend on future communications from Nintendo. This confirmation adds a clear development credit to the Switch 2 Ocarina of Time remake and gives industry observers a firmer picture of which internal team managed the project.
