Nintendo Switch Sports will update on July 27

Released on April 29, Nintendo Switch Sports has since been very discreet to the point that we had almost forgotten its existence. However, Big N today suddenly reminded players that his sports game casual with motion detection was always a safe bet, announcing that it will welcome a content update on July 27. The latter was long awaited, since it had already been teased during the last Nintendo Direct of February 9, during which the game was presented (and notably by Koizumi and Tahakashi).

So what to expect from this update Nintendo Switch Sports ? The flagship novelty is of course the possibility of playing football no longer by waving the Joy-Con but by tying the strap to his leg supplied with the physical edition of the game – also available separately. The opportunity to accentuate a little more the realism and the dynamism of the football games, because it must be admitted that playing this sport while waving your hands is not the most logical, even if it remains successful. nintendo also announced that two new actions incorporated volleyball : the sliding attack and the rocket service. On paper, this could allow you to vary the volleyball experience a little more because it quickly turns out to be repetitive, as we showed you in our test. Finally, for lovers of online gaming (and therefore only Nintendo Switch Online subscribers)be aware that rank A will no longer be the highest rank starting July 27: it will now be possible to climb up to rank S or even rank ∞, although we don’t yet know what that actually means. Additionally, you will be able to create and join your friends in private rooms using an ID.

The program for this update Nintendo Switch Sports is therefore now known, all that remains is to wait for the one this fall, which should see the arrival of golf as a new playable discipline, with why not other surprises over time… We will not fail to keep you informed!
