Our favorite classic Zelda entries are back in the spotlight recently following the recent success of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Remake for the Nintendo Switch 2. Launching just mere days ago, it has already cemented itself as the highest rated game of 2026, which has led to fans wondering if the same remake treatment will be given to some more of the earlier Zelda games such as The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker and The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. Whilst Nintendo executives have revealed that the studio would be open to working on more remakes in the future, no other information has been revealed, but until then, those aforementioned classics are set to become part of a major release that Zelda fans will not want to miss out on. Set to launch to join in the 40th anniversary celebrations of The Legend of Zelda franchise, Nintendo is collaborating with Italian company Panini to bring fans The Legend of Zelda: Master Collection, a card collection that will feature stunning and never-before-seen art from every mainline entry in the beloved franchise, ranging from the very first The Legend of Zelda to the more recent Wilds duology. Set to be the ultimate trading card experience for Zelda fans, The Legend of Zelda: Master Collection will allow customers to experience four decades of the franchise in style, with early sample cards showcasing Link from Tears of the Kingdom (2023), Princess Zelda from Skyward Sword (2011), and an iconic scene from Ocarina of Time (1998). First announced during the Zelda 40th Anniversary Direct showcase back in September, The Legend of Zelda: Master Collection is an upcoming release that fans are looking forward to, and with Panini on board, a company best known for its high-quality sports cards and World Cup sticker collections, it is bound to be a highly polished collection. At the time of writing, there is a lot of information we do not yet know about The Legend of Zelda: Master Collection, including its exact release date, price, number of cards included, and where exactly customers will be able to secure their box. What Nintendo and Panini have unveiled, however, is the box art. Featuring a white and gold color scheme, we can also see various depictions of Link from across the past 40 years, set against etchings of the iconic Hyrule map. Additionally, an alternative design has also been unveiled, this time sporting a black and gold design, but again, no further information about this box has been revealed. Last but not least, if we are to take Panini's previous card collections into account, we can safely assume that each box will include either 12 or 24 packs, with each pack itself consisting of around six cards. So, there you have it! It seems as though, to celebrate four decades of the beloved The Legend of Zelda franchise, fans can almost get their hands on stunning cards that will celebrate Link and Zelda in style. Hopefully, we will receive more information about The Legend of Zelda: Master Collection soon.
