We may not have gotten any Breath of the Wild sequel updates, but Nintendo did have one piece of Zelda news to share during its recent Direct livestream: Skyward Sword is coming to Nintendo Switch. Releasing July 16, 2021, The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD is an enhanced port of the 2011 Wii game, and preorders are available now on the eShop and at Best Buy.
In addition to announcing the HD remaster, Nintendo revealed a new pair of Zelda-themed Joy-Cons will release alongside Skyward Sword HD on July 16. There are two ways you’ll be able to play Skyward Sword on Switch, and the first method includes using the Joy-Cons’ motion controls for swinging your sword, aiming your bow, and more. For those who prefer to play without motion controls, you’ll also be able to play using a regular Pro Controller or in handheld mode using buttons only.
