Twenty-six years ago, The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening was released for the Nintendo GameBoy, and five years later in a colourised release for the GameBoy Color. Now, the adventure has been reimagined for a new audience with a release on Nintendo Switch, displayed in a three-dimensional widescreen view, compared to the original game’s square ratio.

Last week, Nintendo teased a brand new experience for Nintendo Switch that involved Nintendo Switch owners performing various types of physical activity with special ring and strap accessories. Today, we finally got a proper first look at this experience… Ring Fit Adventure!
Ring Fit Adventure introduces a brand new way to get active for Nintendo Switch in an adventure game like no other. In the main story mode, you’ll be travelling through different worlds and fighting many enemies to eventually go head to head against the muscular bodybuilding dragon, Drago.
The accessories will allow the JoyCon to transfer all your movements directly into the game. Jogging on the spot with the special strap attached to your thigh will tell your character to move forwards, whereas the RingCon will allow you to jump, performs power attacks, check your heart rate and so much more.
Outside of adventure mode, you can also play a range of different minigames or even take on a set of different workouts. There’s also a quiet mode that will alter your experience so you do not disturb anyone at night.
Check out the in depth trailer below, and the press release after the break! Ring Fit Adventure will launch on the 18th October 2019, the price has yet to be announced.

Law is to be obeyed and nothing seems to be done to correct the wrongdoings forced upon everyone.
