Nintendo gives The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword a makeover for the Switch

-The Switch port of Skyward Sword will offer a major visual upgrade over the Wii version and include a new control scheme that utilizes the Switch’s Joy-Con controllers.

The game will be *AVAILABLE JULY 16th* and is up for preorder on the Nintendo eShop now. Players will be able to grab Skyward Sword-themed Joy-Con controllers as well.

Reviewers praised the game’s story and gameplay, while others dinged the game for its sometimes finicky motion controls and rigid adherence to The Legend of Zelda series’ formula.
