The Legend Of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD Gets A New Quality Of Life Trailer

Nin­ten­do has released a new “qual­i­ty of life” trail­er for The Leg­end of Zel­da: Sky­ward Sword HD, which shows var­i­ous changes the updat­ed game has for its 2021 launch.

As seen in the video, Sky­ward Sword HD now has bet­ter frame rate, skip­pable cutscenes, and the abil­i­ty to move dia­logue along faster. You can also get option­al help from Fi, like a hint if you’re stuck. The trail­er also high­lights two new con­troller options, which includes both motion con­trols and but­ton usage. You can check out the trail­er below:

The Leg­end of Zel­da: Sky­ward Sword orig­i­nal­ly released on the Wii back in 2011. It was­n’t the first Zel­da game to release for that con­sole (Twi­light Princess was), but it was specif­i­cal­ly designed around the Wii Remote and Nunchuck.

The Leg­end of Zel­da: Sky­ward Sword HD releas­es on July 16th for the Nin­ten­do Switch. On the same day the game launch­es, a Zel­da-themed set of Joy-Cons and a Zel­da & Loftwing Ami­i­bo fig­ure release as well. The Ami­i­bo is com­pat­i­ble with the game, and allows you to fast trav­el between the sur­face world and the sky when scanned.
