Nintendo Confirms Cadence of Hyrule Compatibility with Switch 2
Nintendo confirms that the rhythmic action-adventure game Cadence of Hyrule runs perfectly on the new Switch 2 console. The game challenges players to explore randomly generated Hyrule dungeons while moving to the beat of remixed Legend of Zelda tunes.
Nintendo confirms that Cadence of Hyrule: Crypt of the NecroDancer Featuring The Legend of Zelda is fully compatible with the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2. The game behavior remains consistent with the original console experience, ensuring players seamlessly transition to the new hardware. This rhythmic action-adventure title requires 1.7 GB of storage space on both the original Switch and the new Switch 2.
The game uniquely blends the rhythm-based mechanics of Crypt of the NecroDancer with the beloved setting of The Legend of Zelda series. Players step into the shoes of Link or Princess Zelda to explore randomly generated overworlds and dungeons. Every movement, attack, and defense action syncs directly to the beat of remixed Legend of Zelda music tracks.
Players face pixel-art enemies, including modern-looking Lynels and classic Hyrulean Soldiers, by mastering instinctive rhythmic combat. The adventure equips players with iconic Zelda items alongside spells and weapons from the NecroDancer universe to defeat magically transformed bosses. The digital edition supports single-player and two-player local co-op modes across TV, tabletop, and handheld play styles.
