Nintendo reveals Ring Fit Adventure for Switch

Who says gamers can’t play AND exercise at the same time?

Innovation is such a fitting word for Nintendo. The video game company continues to produce unconventional gaming products targeted for different markets. Their latest is called Ring Fit Adventure.

Ring Fit Adventure is an exercise-adventure game that makes use of new accessories called the Ring Con and Leg Strap.

The Ring Con reacts to a user’s physical force, while the Leg Strap responds to the user’s lower body movements. Both components must have the Switch’s Joy-Cons attached to them to work. Players can also calibrate the Ring Con to match their particular physical abilities.

The game requires a wide range of movements. Players can jog in place to walk or run, press the Ring Con inwards to create a blast of air, aim downwards to jump, and even raise the Ring Con to pick up coins.

To make things more interesting, enemies appear once in a while to challenge you to a Fit Battle. A total of 40 different exercises were compiled in the battle mode such as squats, knee lifts, and even abdominal presses!
