The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask will be added to the Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack on February 25. Taking place two months after the events of Ocarina of Time, Link finds himself in Termina, a mysterious world in a parallel dimension to Hyrule. Here he finds the world will end in three days when the moon crashes into it. By using his ocarina to manipulate time, Link must find a way to save Termina before it’s too late.
