Discover the origin of the Master Sword in The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD for Nintendo Switch. This adventure, which first launched in 2011 for Wii, has been optimized for Nintendo Switch with smoother motion controls and an option for button controls. Experience the earliest story in The Legend of Zelda chronology as you journey with Link to a world above the clouds and into unknown depths to find his childhood friend Zelda. Armed with a sword and shield, Link faces powerful foes in battle, solves tricky puzzles, and flies on the back of a giant sky bird throughout this epic adventure. When playing with two Joy-Con controllers, they become your sword and shield. Swing the right Joy-Con to make Link swing his sword in the game. Use the left Joy-Con to raise Link's shield and deflect enemy attacks. Various objects and tools can also be used with motion controls, such as the bow and arrow or bombs. For the first time, you can also play this adventure with button controls, allowing you to experience it in handheld mode or on Nintendo Switch Lite. With this control method, you move Link's sword using the right control stick.
