Ring Fit Adventure Receives Overview Trailer

Nintendo released a new eight-minute overview trailer for its upcoming Ring Fit Adventure. The video goes through the major features of the hybrid between exercise game and adventure RPG, which uses two accessories — the Ring-Con and Leg Strap — that players attach the Joy-Cons to.

Ring Fit Adventure’s adventure mode sees players travelling across worlds to take down the dragon Dragaux. Players jog on the spot and use the Ring-Con to avoid obstacles and collect items as they traverse courses, while battles require players to do exercises to defend and attack. Defeating enemies and completing areas will earn experience points, with level-ups improving character stats and unlocking new skills. There is also a skill tree where players can unlock further bonuses and skills by spending points. Players can use ingredients picked up to make smoothies that can be used in battle for various effects, such as restoring health, while new clothing can be purchased at shops and quests can be picked up from numerous villagers.

In addition to its adventure mode, Ring Fit Adventure includes multiple quick play modes where players can attempt to do specific exercise moves as many times within a twenty-second time limit or participate in score-based minigames. Players can also do sets of exercises, undergoing routines to focus on certain parts of the body.

Ring Fit Adventure is set to be released on October 18, 2019. The game is priced at $79.99, which includes both the Ring-Con and Leg Strap accessories.
