Ring Fit Adventure ships with the Ring-Con and Leg Strap, which have docks to hold the Switch's Joy-Con. These accessories are required to play the game. The game's main mode is a role-playing game in which the player takes on the role of a young athlete who encounters a sentient Ring. Exercises are classified by color, with each color corresponding to a specific part of the body that the exercise targets, such as shoulders or cardio.
In addition to the adventure mode, the game includes a general fitness routine mode that allows players to perform the exercises. It's an adventure game that's also a workout! Level up your character and yourself as you explore a vast fantasy world and defeat enemies using real-life exercises. Jog, sprint, and perform high knees through dozens of levels.
