Nintendo and Lego tease a Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time set

Lego has a long history of geek and gaming crossovers. We’ve seen recent sets for Star Wars and Star Trek, while past collaborations include everything from Super Mario Bros. to Minecraft. The latest blocky tie-in is a classic: The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, as teased on social network X by Nintendo of America with the caption “Do you realize who you’re dealing with?”

The short video clip recreates a scene from the game, with a minifig of Link armed with his Hylian shield and Master Sword beside a tiny floating Navi fairy. (Presumably Lego Navi will not interrupt you with “Hey! Listen!” every five minutes, but maybe the company is striving for total accuracy.) A blurry Zelda minifig stands behind them, and the heroes stare upward at the looming shadow of what must be a Ganon character. Whether the villain is a minifig of his own or a larger-than-life constructed model remains to be seen. The set won’t be released until 2026, but most likely either Lego or Nintendo will reveal more details ahead of the launch date. 

This isn’t the first time Hyrule is getting the Lego treatment. The brands’ debut Legend of Zelda collab was a set of the Great Deku Tree that came out last year, and it could be built as either the wise arboreal being from Ocarina of Time or from Breath of the Wild.
