Nintendo has not announced who is developing the Ocarina of Time remake. No studio is credited on its store pages, which list only Nintendo as developer and publisher. If you have read confidently that Grezzo is making it, that claim is not sourced to Nintendo.
What Is Actually Confirmed
Eiji Aonuma is series producer and presented the gameplay at the September 8 Direct. Hidemaro Fujibayashi is also credited as a producer.
That is the extent of the credited personnel. Nintendo’s storefront lists Nintendo itself, which tells you who is publishing and is consistent with Nintendo EPD involvement, but does not identify the hands-on team.
Where the Grezzo Claim Comes From
Grezzo is the widely repeated assumption, and it is a reasonable one. The studio has a substantial Zelda remake record:
- Ocarina of Time 3D (2011)
- Majora’s Mask 3D (2015)
- Link’s Awakening for Switch (2019)
- Echoes of Wisdom (2024)
They have, in other words, already remade this exact game once.
But the specific evidence being cited traces to an IMDb listing for Link’s Japanese voice actor Nobuyuki Hiyama, which also pointed to a Majora’s Mask Switch 2 remake. IMDb is user-editable, which makes it a starting point for a rumour rather than a source.
Separately, a Norwegian retailer briefly listed Monolith Soft before changing it back to Nintendo, which press treated as a guess rather than a leak.
The honest position: Grezzo is the likeliest candidate on track record, and nobody outside Nintendo knows.
Why This Is Worth Caring About
Not for trivia. The developer would tell you something concrete about what to expect.
Grezzo’s remakes have tended toward faithful reconstruction with quality-of-life work layered on, which matches how Aonuma has described this project. He called it “a faithful interpretation using modern technologies,” and the game deliberately keeps structural details the hardware no longer requires, such as loading transitions between major areas, as our changes guide covers.
That philosophy is consistent with Grezzo’s history. It is also consistent with several other teams, which is why we are not going to state it as fact.
