Speculation About a Majora’s Mask Remake
Players exploring the Switch 2 remake of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time are looking for hints about what’s next. Some wonder if Nintendo will follow the 3DS pattern and remake the less‑popular but experimental Majora’s Mask, which arrived shortly after Ocarina of Time.
Many of the clues fans cite come from Ocarina of Time itself. The 2000 game reuses assets and models, so characters that appear in a potential Majora’s Mask remake also appear in Ocarina. Its main antagonist, Skull Kid, and the Happy Mask Salesman both show up there.

When you meet Skull Kid in the Lost Woods, he says his face feels “missing something” and asks what could “fix” that emptiness. It actually refers to an Ocarina of Time quest where you give him the Skull Mask, not a Majora’s Mask clue.

The Happy Mask Salesman’s updated look in the Ocarina of Time remake hints at a Majora’s Mask remake. His model now includes golden bangles, a detail he first showed in the N64 sequel when he became a key character.
Another piece of evidence for a potential Majoras Mask remake?

Minor changes in the Ocarina of Time remake — a dynamic day/night cycle that keeps time moving like Majora’s Mask’s three‑day loop — suggest a possible Majora’s Mask remake, making the world feel more alive.
A Reddit user says, “I’m only 10 minutes into the Switch 2 Ocarina of Time remake and it’s stunning. The devs poured their heart into it, and I want to see Majora’s Mask redone with this look, hear remastered music in Ikana Canyon, and see the mask transformations. It feels inevitable they’ll remake MM with this engine; they know it will sell and we’ll want it even more.”
If a Majora’s Mask remake is in the works, it will probably accompany the next mainline Zelda title. With Tears of the Kingdom only three years old and typical five‑ to six‑year gaps, a remake would give fans more nostalgia while we await the series’ future.
