Nintendo never shied away from creating unique fitness games in the past but with the Ring Fit Adventure, they elevated their game to a whole new level. Using the quirky Ring-Con controller, you will embark on a virtual adventure that can get you fit in real life.

Unique gaming experience thanks to special controller; Story mode offers sense of progression; Plenty of replay value; Difficulty can be customised to player's ability; Quiet mode is neighbour friendly

Admittedly; you will need at least 2 sqm space to play properly

Ring Fit Adventure is not just an excellent fitness game, but the perfect companion to achieving a healthy lifestyle. Between making exercise fun and enjoyable with the battle system and innovative traversal options, and the regular tips and advice that it gives, Ring Fit Adventure is constantly...

Doesn’t matter what your ability is you can use this. All the family love using it. Well worth the money

I beat the boss but I'm the one on the ground XD Fun and motivating and had a good graphic touch similar to the Zelda switch game which I love :)

This game is hard to find anywhere in NZ. I missed the first and second restocks via Mighty Ape but my cart now says shipping tomorrow! Looking at the product they say more stock 13 November. If something sells this crazy, it must be damn good. EB Games and The Warehouse both said sorry we have no stock and no idea when new stock is coming in. I think Nintendo underestimated the demand for fitness in-front of TV gaming. I'm on the edge of my seat waiting for my copy to arrive, hope y'all manage to secure one too!

Hands down the best work out game ever. It’s great for both beginners and advanced fitness enthusiasts. Nintendo got it right with this game and the resistance ring. A must buy for all switch owners who want to aim and getting fit.

I'm not new to weights, but this game is challenging lol It incorporates cardiovascular activity with strength training and yoga. Also has a nice cool off period with stretching after the game when you want to give it a rest. All this while battling monsters and saving the planet from some big weight lifting demon… Not a bad way to get the kids off the couch!

Editor's note: Ring Fit Adventure first released on October 18, 2019. Because we were unable to review the game back then, we're taking this opportunity--the one-year anniversary of its release--to give it a full evaluation now.

Approachable enough for beginners while also offering higher difficulty settings that should appeal to fitness pros; Vibrant landscapes making jogging through each world a treat; Combat system and skill trees keep progression varied and interesting; Fosters healthy approach to fitness and allows you...

Encourages shorter sessions by prompting you to quit after one or two levels; which can be counterproductive to growth; Cardio feels minimal compared to strength training and bodyweight exercises

“Ring Fit Adventure is an ingenious blend of fitness and gaming.”

Story keeps you motivated; A large variety of exercises; Mini-games are fun; Tons of replayability
