Power In-Game Actions Using Real-Life Exercise
with the Included Ring-Con and Leg Strap Accessories
REDMOND,
Wash., Oct. 18, 2019 – It’s time to embark on a wondrous adventure set in an
expansive world filled with daring challenges, powerful enemies and a bodybuilding dragon with an ego to match his oversized
muscles. But the twist in this adventure is that you will move through the
game world and defeat enemies with attacks based on various real-world exercises
using the two included accessories that respond to real-life movement. Starting
today, the new Ring Fit Adventure
game for the Nintendo Switch
system is now available in stores. The two new accessories – Ring-Con and Leg
Strap – work with the Joy-Con controllers and allow the game to turn your
movements and exercise in the real world, like jogging in place, squats and overhead
shoulder presses, into actions in the game.
“Ring Fit Adventure
is a new way to experience adventure gaming that lets various types of players explore
a huge world and battle enemies using real-life movements and exercise,” said Nick
Chavez, Nintendo of America’s Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing. “With
Ring Fit Adventure, you can tailor
exercise to your skill level, and as your skill level grows so too will your
progress in this deep adventure game.”
In the game’s main Adventure mode, you’ll journey through numerous
colorful worlds, with your ultimate goal to defeat the evil bodybuilding
dragon, Dragaux. As you move through each level, you’ll defeat enemies with
exercise using your arms, legs and core to earn experience points and collect
ingredients to craft in-game smoothies that support your journey. Between battles,
you might even encounter some unusual methods of transportation, such as
squat-powered launch pads, ab twist-fueled paddleboards and other ways to get
around using the power of your real-life exercise moves.
Outside of the main adventure, Quick Play mode is a great
way to enjoy Ring Fit Adventure in
shorter bursts, allowing you to jump in and out of play. This lets you enjoy
the game in different ways, like taking turns with friends and family in
various mini-games. Mini-games cover a wide range of activities, from breaking
boxes with gusts of air triggered by squeezing the Ring-Con accessory to
shaping pottery by performing squats. The game also features online
leaderboards* so you can compare your high scores with friends on your Nintendo
Switch friends list!
Other modes, like Simple and Sets, offer additional ways to
work out. “Simple” lets you choose exercises you want to work on and perform
them individually. High scores are recorded so you can keep track of your
personal bests. “Sets” provides linked sequences of different exercises
designed around a theme or a particular body part. This mode lets you target a
muscle group you want to focus on, like legs, shoulders, lower body or core.
Before you start a session of Ring Fit Adventure, you’ll simply insert the left Joy-Con into the
Leg Strap accessory and then attach it to your upper-left leg. The Ring-Con
accessory, which holds the right Joy-Con, is held in both hands. The Ring-Con accessory
is a flexible electronic device that provides resistance and uses the Joy-Con
to respond to your movements. Ring Fit
Adventure can be adjusted to your level of skill, so even if you don’t have
experience with fitness, you can change the exercise intensity at any time to
suit your ability. This will let you continue playing every day at an activity
level that’s comfortable for you.
The fun nature of Ring
Fit Adventure will motivate you to regularly get exercise as you continue
your journey and level up your character in the game. And with the power of
Nintendo Switch, the game can be taken anywhere, letting you work up a sweat at
your own convenience.
Using the Multitask mode, you can use the Ring-Con
accessory with an attached Joy-Con controller on its own, without the Nintendo
Switch system. While you’re sitting at work or watching TV, you can press and pull
the Ring-Con accessory to gain reps. Later, you can sync the Ring-Con accessory
with your Ring Fit Adventure game to
convert the stored reps into bonuses, such as experience and in-game items for
your character.
The game even includes a “Silent” mode for people who live
in an upstairs apartment or don’t want to make a lot of noise. By activating
this mode, jogging-style exercises are swapped out for ones that are a little
quieter, allowing you to keep your legs active without a heavy impact on the
floor.
Ring Fit Adventure is now
available in stores at a suggested retail price of $79.99. It includes the game
card, Ring-Con and Leg Strap accessories. For more information about the game,
