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

Lego has an extended historical past of geek and gaming crossovers. We have seen latest units for Star Wars and Star Trek, whereas previous collaborations embrace all the pieces from Super Mario Bros. to Minecraft. The most recent blocky tie-in is a basic: The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, as teased on social community X by Nintendo of America with the caption “Do you understand who you’re coping with?”

The brief video clip recreates a scene from the sport, with a minifig of Hyperlink armed along with his Hylian defend and Grasp Sword beside a tiny floating Navi fairy. (Presumably Lego Navi won’t interrupt you with “Hey! Pay attention!” each 5 minutes, however perhaps the corporate is striving for whole accuracy.) A blurry Zelda minifig stands behind them, and the heroes stare upward on the looming shadow of what should be a Ganon character. Whether or not the villain is a minifig of his personal or a larger-than-life constructed mannequin stays to be seen. The set will not be launched till 2026, however most definitely both Lego or Nintendo will reveal extra particulars forward of the launch date.

This is not the primary time Hyrule is getting the Lego therapy. The manufacturers’ debut Legend of Zelda collab was a set of the Great Deku Tree that got here out final yr, and it could possibly be constructed as both the sensible arboreal being from Ocarina of Time or from Breath of the Wild.
