HORI's Electric Ocarina of Time is set for a November release at 7,980 yen. It is being shown at HORI's Tokyo Game Show 2026 booth, where it works with the sound recognition in the Switch 2 version of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.
HORI's Electric Ocarina of Time is an electronic instrument modeled on the ocarina Link plays in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. It is not played by blowing, and it cannot be used as a game controller. The device carries free play and auto play modes, a volume dial, and an earphone jack. It releases in November at 7,980 yen.
The instrument works with the Nintendo Switch 2 version of the game. The console picks up the instrument's sound through the software's voice recognition feature and links it to some in-game effects. HORI announced the release on September 8, 2026, and is displaying the product at its Tokyo Game Show 2026 booth on September 17, 2026, ahead of the November launch.
Coverage has stayed on the same product details across both stories. The price, the November window, the connection to the Switch 2 game, and the instrument's modes are consistent. What is settled is the hardware itself and how it interacts with the game. The one point that has not appeared in either story is a specific release date within November.
