Nintendo Labo: VR Bundle for Nintendo Switch goes on sale today, April 19th. The VR headset update for The legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild will be released on April 26th. The technical director of the game Takuhiro Dota (Takuhiro Dota) explained what is remarkable about the game in VR and how it can interest even those who have already spent dozens of hours in the world of Breath of the Wild:

"Hello! My name is Takuhiro Dota and I am the CTO of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.

So, the VR kit from Nintendo Labo is already available in the store, and it comes with VR glasses. That's why we've added VR to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.

 

Turning on the glasses is easy. Open the menu, select "System", then "Settings". Select "Use" under "VR Toy-Con Glasses" and simply insert your Nintendo Switch console into the glasses. Looking into them, you will see the picturesque expanses of Hyrule!

The control of the hero and the camera is standard, but you will see the game world from a different point of view. In addition, the camera will follow the direction of your gaze.

The way the game is displayed can be changed at any time. We recommend wearing VR goggles if you find a spot with an amazing view, a favorite piece of equipment, or a favorite character.

This update will give Hyrule a new lease of life. Even experienced players will want to return to the familiar world to view its three-dimensional version. It is compatible with saved game data.

The idea was born during a demonstration of VR glasses at Nintendo Labo. I was pleasantly surprised by the results of the development and immediately began to consider whether it is possible to add virtual reality to our project. At that time, we had a lot of ideas: we wanted to create new beautiful locations or introduce interesting opponents into the game. However, in the end, the development team decided that they needed to present The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild without plot changes, but allow players to look into any corner of Hyrule through VR glasses.

Of course, the difficulty was that The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is played from a third-person perspective, watching the main character Link from above. We needed to combine this feature and features of virtual reality. The result is different from those games that are included in the standard VR set, and I hope you appreciate our efforts.

If you don't like the camera following your every move, motion control can be turned off in the game settings. I believe that this feature will intrigue users.

One of the features of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is the variable gameplay that allows players to find their own solutions to problems. The team jointly develops sets of rules that allow everyone to get the most out of the game. When The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild was released on Nintendo Switch, in addition to the freedom to choose the rules, you also have physical freedom - because you can play anywhere! Now VR glasses will expand your possibilities even more.”
