Bowling: Roll the ball straight ahead, or give it a little curve. (1–16 players)

Chambara: Knock your opponent off the platform while attacking and defending. (1–2 players)

Football: Use a gigantic ball to make dynamic plays. Enjoy matches with Joy-Con controllers to shoot and perform Diving Headers. By attaching a Joy-Con controller to the Leg Strap accessory included with the physical version of Nintendo Switch Sports (also available separately), you can play Shoot-out mode with intuitive kicking motions. (1–8 players)

Badminton: Control your shots left and right while keeping the shuttlecock in the air. Swing left and right while keeping the shuttlecock in the air. Unleash powerful smash shots to gain the upper hand! (1–2 players)

Volleyball: Use a Joy-Con controller to serve, bump, set, and spike the ball. (1–4 players)

Golf: Hit the fairway in local play, including newly-added LAN functionality that allows you to play with friends nearby without an internet connection. Online, swing simultaneously and go “fore” the lowest score to avoid elimination in Survival Golf.

Basketball: Use your Joy-Con to sink as many baskets as you can in a frantic Three-Point Challenge for up to four players in local multiplayer, or partner up for two-on-two matches locally or online. Pass and dribble to the basket to score, or time your defence to successfully intercept the opposing team’s plays. Free software update required. (1–4 players)

Play together in person* or online** with family and friends, or challenge players around the world. In addition to customizing your avatar with items collected from playing online, there are all kinds of ways to have fun, such as testing your ability in the Pro League where you can try to increase your rank by winning in the different sports.
