This week and weekend is all about the remake of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, one of the few games I feel deserves the title of masterpiece. And the remake is really well done! I got every heart piece, every Gold Skulltala, the Goron Sword, and the biggest pouch for every one of my items over the course of the review... but I am contemplating jumping right back in for another go.

We also revealed our next cover and in case you missed the announcement it is... pause for effect... Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis! It's an awesome cover that celebrates the history of Lara Croft, and along with a cover story on the game, we also have a big retrospective on the series. I highly recommend subscribing to get your issue if you haven't already.

But it wasn't all just Zelda and Tomb Raider this week. Below you will find a list of weekend play recommendations, but before that... some of our biggest stories of the week.

We have been writing a lot about The Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina Of Time remake this week because it is one of 2026's most exciting games, and it's real good. The remake is not particularly surprising. It mostly sticks to the trajectory of the original game, but there is a reason it is considered one of the best games of all time. It also looks and plays amazing.

You can read the full review here (or watch the video above), but we also have a big interview with the game's producers (one of whom worked on the original Ocarina of Time, and one who directed Breath of the Wild among many other Zelda games), some details about the Easter Eggs that did and did not make it into the remake , and a very handy tip for the game if you happen to be playing with a Switch 2 Pro controller.
