The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake has published its full English voice cast ahead of the game's release on Nintendo Switch 2.
The original The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time launched on the Nintendo 64 in 1998 and famously used no spoken dialogue; this remake marks a major shift by presenting fully voiced characters in cutscenes.
Official English voice cast
Navi – Lisa Reimold
Zelda / Sheik – Erica Mendez
Ganondorf – Matt Mercer
Great Deku Tree – Richard Epcar

Darunia – Josh Petersdorf
Ruto – Anne Yatco
Deku Tree Sprout – Deva Marie Gregory
Nabooru – Cristina Vee

Journalistic summary of key points
The cast list confirms Matt Mercer is voicing Ganondorf once again; Mercer previously provided the English voice for Ganondorf in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (2023).
Erica Mendez is listed as the voice of Zelda and Sheik — Mendez is an established English-language voice actor with numerous credits in video games and animation, including Bernadetta in Fire Emblem: Three Houses.
The introduction of voice acting represents a substantive change from the 1998 Nintendo 64 original developed by Nintendo EAD.
According to the materials released alongside the remake’s reveal, characters that historically relied on text and expression will now speak in framed cutscenes, reflecting modern production values for high-profile remakes on Nintendo platforms.
What this means for players and the franchise
The addition of full voice acting is likely to shape how longtime fans experience the narrative beats of Ocarina of Time for the first time with audio performances.
The cast blends established video game voice talent with actors who have prior ties to major franchises, and the credits have been published in full to give players transparent attribution ahead of launch.
For further coverage, watch official Nintendo communications (including direct announcements and storefront listings) for release date confirmations, platform availability on Nintendo Switch 2, and developer updates.
