And it finally happened. In just a few days, an unofficial PC port of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Remake has been released. This unofficial port lets you boot, launch, and play this new Nintendo Switch 2 Zelda game on PC without using an emulator.
The PC port comes with a small tool called Hookshot Builder. It uses your own game files to build the PC version. You can pick the game file or select the RomFS and ExeFS folders. You can also choose the game language and where to save the finished build. The tool checks that your game has the right update before it starts. The full build takes about 40 minutes, but you can still use your PC while it works.
Once the game starts, players can press Insert to open the in-game menu. This menu has several options to help the game run and look better. You can turn frame generation on or off, or pick 2x, 3x, or 4x frame generation. There is also a frame pacing option to help keep motion smooth.
The menu lets you change the game resolution, too. You can use the game’s own dynamic setting or pick 100%, 75%, 67%, or 50% resolution. For a sharper image, you can choose Catmull-Rom or Lanczos upscaling. You can also set the sharpness level from 0 to 100%.
Other options include a handheld profile, an FPS counter, and an ultrawide mode. The ultrawide option can match the shape of your monitor. The game also has two speed modes. Per-frame mode slows the game when it drops below 60 FPS. Real-time mode keeps the game at its normal speed.
Hookshot also supports both gamepads and keyboard and mouse controls. The default keyboard setup uses WASD to move and the arrow keys to turn the camera. Players can save their settings in an INI file next to the game.
This unofficial PC port of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Remake needs 64-bit Windows 10 or 11, a Vulkan 1.3 graphics card with mesh shader support, and at least 16 GB of RAM. The build also needs about 60 GB of free disk space. So far, the team has tested it on a PC with a Ryzen 5 7600X and an NVIDIA RTX 4060 Ti with 16 GB of memory.
The PC port is still experimental. The game can reach about 50 FPS while walking in the tested area, but it does not hold a steady 60 FPS yet without frame generation (which is already working). Sound, saves, controllers, and keyboard controls also work. The team has fixed black flashes and missing parts of some models in the areas tested so far.
There are still some issues. The game can stutter when you enter a new area for the first time. The ultrawide mode keeps the 3D image in shape, but it can stretch the HUD and make the picture look softer. Hyrule Field and most of the game have not been tested yet. AMD and Intel graphics cards have not been tested either.
You can go ahead and download the PC port from this link. As always, it does not include the game, keys, or a ready-made game file. Players must use their own copy of the game.
In case you are into projects like these, you can also download the unofficial PC ports of Mario Kart Wii, Super Mario 64, Mario Kart 64, Super Mario Sunshine, Super Mario Galaxy, Super Mario Odyssey, Super Mario All-Stars, and Super Mario Strikers.
But what about non-Super Mario games? Well, right now, you can download the unofficial PC ports of Crash Team Racing, Forza Horizon 2, and Duke Nukem: Zero Hour. You can also play The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker, Majora’s Mask, Perfect Dark, Call of Duty 3, and Jak & Daxter.
These past couple of months, I also shared the unofficial PC versions of The Simpsons Game, Peter Jackson’s King Kong, Gears of War 3, and Bloodborne. Let’s also not forget the PC ports of Virtua Fighter Arcade, Splinter Cell: Double Agent, Tekken 6, The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker HD, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Metroid Dread, and Metroid Prime.
For our SNES fans, we also have a PC port of Star Fox. We also got a PC port of F-Zero. Brian Tate has also brought the three classic SNES Donkey Kong Country games to PC. Plus, we got a PC port of Mother 2/EarthBound.
Arcade fans can download unofficial PC versions of some cool games. For instance, you can play SCUD RACE, The Lost World: Jurassic Park, Time Crisis, Rave Racer, Time Crisis 2, and Virtua Fighter 2.
It’s also worth noting that all the Gears of War games from the Xbox 360 era have been ported to PC. We’ve also gotten an unofficial PC port of the first God of War game. Nintendo fans can also play unofficial PC versions of Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition.
For our PS4 fans, we have unofficial PC ports of Bloodborne, Shadow of the Colossus, MediEvil, Killzone Shadow Fall, and Driveclub. You can also download the unofficial PC versions of God of War 3 Remastered, Gran Turismo Sport, Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection, The Order: 1886, and The Last Guardian.
In September 2026, we shared a lot of unofficial PC ports. So, you can download and enjoy on PC Zelda 2: The Adventure of Link, WET, The Darkness, Spider-Man: Edge of Time, Mercenaries, GTA: Liberty City Stories, Fable 2, Burnout Revenge, and Lost Odyssey.
And that’s not all of them. We also have the unofficial PC ports of Mario Party 4, Sonic Unleashed, GoldenEye 007, The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, and Silent Hill. In July 2026, we shared the unofficial PC ports of Gears of War 2 and Syphon Filter. Then, in August 2026, we shared the PC ports of Diddy Kong Racing and Ace Combat 6. Let’s also not forget the unofficial PC versions of Wave Race 64, Blue Dragon, and Pikmin. Finally, you can download the PC ports of Ninja Gaiden 2, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Super Paper Mario, Bayonetta 3, and Tekken 3.
Have fun!
