Nintendo Switch Sports coming April 2022; Online Play Test in February

Get hyped!

Nintendo Switch Sports was today announced for the Nintendo Switch, another entry in the Wii Sports franchise.

Six sports — tennis, bowling, chambara, football (soccer), badminton and volleyball — will be available from launch on 29 April, while golf will be added later in 2021.

As you’d expect, players will use Joy-Cons much like Wiimotes to interact with each sporting event.

Furthermore, those with a Nintendo Switch Online subscription will be able to take part in an Online Play Test from 19-20 February.

Expect Nintendo Switch Sports on Nintendo Switch from 29 April.

About the author

Steve Wright

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
