LEGO unveils an upcoming set inspired by The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time featuring Link and Epona.
LEGO has officially announced plans to release a new set inspired by the beloved video game, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. This exciting development was revealed in a recent update from Nintendo, as reported by ComicBook.com on September 8, 2026.
This upcoming set follows the successful launch of the “The Final Battle” set earlier in the year, which depicted a climactic moment from Ocarina of Time and included over 1,000 pieces along with minifigures of key characters such as Link, Zelda, and Ganondorf. Given the popularity of that set, LEGO is expanding its Zelda offerings to celebrate the franchise's ongoing legacy.
The new LEGO set will prominently feature the adult version of Link, beautifully designed as he rides his loyal horse, Epona. This model captures a key moment in the game where Link escapes Lon Lon Ranch with Epona, a scene cherished by long-time fans of the series. Link will be equipped with both the Master Sword and the Hylian Shield, enhancing the set's authenticity and appeal.
Although the announcement confirmed the existence of this new set, specific details regarding pricing, the total number of pieces, and the official release date have not yet been disclosed by Nintendo. However, anticipation is heightened as the timing aligns with the upcoming remake of Ocarina of Time scheduled for November 5, 2026.
Nintendo is celebrating the 40th anniversary of the Zelda franchise with a variety of events and releases throughout the year. This announcement of a new LEGO set adds to the buzz surrounding Zelda, especially with a live-action film adaptation set to premiere in April 2027. Given this context, fans are eager to see how these releases will illuminate the franchise’s legacy and attract both new and longtime fans.
In addition, LEGO typically keeps its product timelines tight, often not revealing new sets far in advance of their launch. This could suggest that the new Zelda LEGO set may arrive close to the game's remake, allowing fans to enjoy complementary releases.
While the new LEGO set offers an exciting addition to the range of Zelda merchandise, many specifics remain unknown. The lack of information about pricing or piece count leaves fans eager for further updates, as does the uncertainty surrounding the exact launch timing. While speculation exists that the timing could coincide with the game’s release, it is also possible that the set may be released at a later date to align with other Zelda-related products coming out over the next year.
The announcement of a new Zelda: Ocarina of Time LEGO set is significant not just for fans of LEGO and the Zelda franchise but also for the broader gaming community. This collaboration highlights the enduring popularity of Zelda and demonstrates LEGO's commitment to creating high-quality models that resonate with fans’ nostalgic memories. As the launch of the remake approaches, excitement around this LEGO set is likely to build, potentially reinvigorating interest in both the game and its merchandise.
As more details become available regarding this new LEGO set, including its pricing and release date, fans can stay tuned for updates from ComicBook.com.
