PLAY YOUR WAY

You can enjoy this epic adventure in two different ways: wield the sword and handle it easily thanks to intuitive motion controls, or use the buttons for the first time, which are perfect for playing in handheld mode or with the Nintendo Switch Lite console.

Thanks to the improved motion controls, you can experience the action like never before. Move the right Joy-Con for Link to use his sword; meanwhile, you can raise the shield with the left Joy-Con to protect yourself from enemy attacks. These controls can also be used to handle different tools and items, such as the bow and arrows, or to throw bombs.

The buttons, on the other hand, offer a more traditional The Legend of Zelda experience. In this case, you can control Link's sword by tilting the right stick in the direction you want.

AN ADVENTURE AT DIFFERENT HEIGHTS

Take to the skies on the back of your faithful Loftwing and visit the islands scattered across the horizon, then descend to the surface spoken of in legends and explore forests, deserts, volcanoes and much more. Befriend new allies, uncover hidden secrets and face hordes of monsters on your journey to thwart Ghirahim's evil plans.

VENTURE INTO THE UNKNOWN

Hidden in each region of the surface lies a vast dungeon filled with fearsome enemies, treasures and puzzles designed to test the mettle of even the bravest hero. Defeat the guardian waiting at the end of each dungeon and you will be one step closer to saving the world.

THE TOOLS (AND TRICKS) OF THE TRADE

As you explore the lands stretching out beneath Skyloft, you will discover a wide variety of weapons, gadgets and items to help you on your adventure. What's more, you can even upgrade some of them and unlock their full potential by using the right materials!
