Just like in the original game, there's a ton of great side content in the Ocarina of Time remake. From collecting Heart Pieces and Gold Skulltula Tokens to selling masks and trading random items to get the Biggoron Sword, there's plenty to keep you busy if you're ever looking to take a break from the main storyline. All in all, a 100% playthrough will take around 25 hours in total.
With the game only having one manual save slot, though, you may be wondering whether it's possible to go back and wrap up anything that you missed after defeating the final boss. Thankfully, the answer to this question is yes, although perhaps not in the traditional sense. There's also no New Game Plus mode in the Ocarina of Time remake as of the time of writing.
Ocarina of Time Remake Point of No Return
The point of no return in the Ocarina of Time remake comes at the top of Ganondorf's Tower, right before you open the final boss door. Before opening the door, you'll be free to exit the tower (either by climbing back down or warping). After you open the door, you'll be locked into the final section of the game, which takes around thirty minutes to complete.
Can You Keep Playing Ocarina of Time Remake After Beating the Final Boss?
After beating the final boss and watching the end credits, you will be able to continue playing, although it'll be from the point just before you opened the final boss door. Choosing Continue from the main menu will allow you to reload one of your save files. I chose an autosave at the top of Ganondorf's Tower and then played the Prelude of Light to return to the Temple of Time.
Is There a New Game Plus Mode in the Ocarina of Time Remake?
At launch, there's no New Game Plus mode in the Ocarina of Time remake, although datamining has suggested that Master Quest mode may be coming somewhere further down the line. Interestingly, if you reload a save file after defeating Ganondorf, you'll notice that the save slot now has a Triforce on it, and the Threads of Time page has the full tapestry, so the game does keep track of whether or not you've completed it.
