A new iteration of Wii Sports, the mega-hit family sports game, will return to the Nintendo Switch on April 29.

Announced during the latest Nintendo Direct, Nintendo Switch Sports is a sequel to the original Wii game and recreates many of its classic minigames using the console’s Joycon controllers' motion support.

The three additional sports joining the lineup are soccer, badminton, and volleyball. 

The soccer minigame features an oversize ball and goals. It also comes with a ‘shootout’ mode that lets you use an optional ‘leg strap accessory’ to attach a Joycon controller to your leg. By doing so, you’ll be able to time the ticks of your character with your own limbs. 

Check out the game’s trailer below.
