The Legend of Zelda
NES · 2026
Released NESRecomp title with a Voxel 3D renderer for the overworld, a first-person mode, and an experimental HD build.
The Legend of Zelda is one of the ten commercial titles supported by NESRecomp, maintained by the core team. It shipped v1.7.0 on 2026-06-19 alongside a separate v1.7.0-hd build labeled "Zelda Remastered HD (EXPERIMENTAL)".
What works today
The game is an MMC1 cartridge and exercises one of the framework's harder cases: code executed out of SRAM. It runs through the shared NESRecomp runner with the framework's save-state slots, with Windows x64 as the primary platform and macOS support experimental.
Enhancements
This title is the showcase for NESRecomp's opt-in Voxel 3D renderer, with both an overworld mode and a first-person mode, toggled with Numpad 0. The experimental HD build extends that direction further.
The project distributes no game data and builds from your own legally dumped ROM.
