Ocarina of Time finally gets a jump button
In the original, Link only jumped on his own at ledges. The remake adds a real jump button, and the jump attack now works two ways.
According to an “Ask the Developer” interview, the team added manual jumping because modern players, especially ones coming from Breath of the Wild, are used to it. The jump attack now has two control options: the original’s single-button style, or attacking while mid-jump.
