A free update for Nintendo Switch Sports will come out on July 26th. According to a press release we received, the update will ” kicks things up a notch and adds a number of new features to the game”. The update adds new features specifically to soccer and volleyball.

“In Four-on-Four and One-on-One Soccer matches you’ll be able to use a Joy-Con controller and a Leg Strap accessory (included in the physical version of the game, and also available to purchase separately in the My Nintendo Store and at select retailers). Use a kicking motion in real life and the game will transform your movements into in-game actions. Likewise, you can also move your hands, just like you’re jogging in place, to dash in the game. If you play this way, your in-game kicks will be more powerful.”

As for volleyball, you’ll be able to pull off “fancy new moves for Volleyball – the Slide Attack and Rocket Serve. Make your spikes even more unpredictable or catch your opponents by surprise right from the start of the match!”

The update will also add new ranking to the pro league! The pro league will get “the addition of the new S Rank and ∞ Rank. When you aren’t spiking, swinging or striking for the new ranks in random matchmaking, you’ll be able to easily join Friend Matches using Room IDs.*”
