Master Every Iconic Melody from the Ocarina of Time Remake on Switch 2

The remake of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time includes all twelve original ocarina songs, each with unique in-game effects such as time manipulation, weather changes, and teleportation. A guide provides button inputs for each melody and features a built-in melody player to help players trigger songs via the Switch 2’s microphone. Learning these tunes is essential for progressing through the story.

The 2026 remake of *The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time* on the Switch 2 reintroduces all twelve original ocarina songs from the 1998 classic, each tied to specific in-game mechanics such as time manipulation, weather alteration, teleportation, and puzzle-solving. These include iconic melodies like Zelda’s Lullaby, Epona’s Song, Saria’s Song, Sun’s Song, the Song of Time, and the Song of Storms, with button inputs provided for each via a built-in melody player accessible through the Switch 2’s microphone. The remake also introduces an optional custom song, Scarecrow’s Song, which players can create by playing an eight-note sequence to Bonooru at Lake Hylia as Child Link and then replaying it as Adult Link to summon a grapple-able scarecrow. The game’s narrative requires mastery of all twelve songs for progression, though the order of acquisition depends on player choice in branching story routes. The guide, authored by Tom Bowen, a senior editor with expertise in RPGs and adventure games, was published on November 5, 2026, and is hosted on GameRant, a platform known for gaming guides and reviews.

This revival builds on the legacy of the original game’s groundbreaking use of music as gameplay mechanics—a design choice that influenced generations of titles. The inclusion of a microphone-based melody player reflects Nintendo’s ongoing investment in interactive audio experiences, leveraging the Switch 2’s advanced input capabilities.
