''Battle Quest'' can be played with one to four players. The first player uses the GamePad to control an archer character who can pick off enemies at a distance or activate inaccessible switches, while the remaining players fight using swords controlled with Wii Remotes. All players move automatically along a linear, enemy-and-puzzle-infested path toward their destination.

In multiplayer mode, the game demonstrates the asynchronous gameplay made possible through the Wii U's unique GamePad. The player using the GamePad will have a different gameplay experience from the players using Wii Remotes. All players work together with pooled health to combat enemies and tackle obstacles. A colored rupee appears below each lost heart to indicate which player lost it.

To fire an arrow, the player pulls down on the right analog stick and releases. Holding it down for a few seconds charges a powerful shot which deals extra damage and pierces through enemies. While charging a shot, the Mii will not move forward. This can be used strategically to pause progress and look around or carefully aim at unaware enemies from afar. Once the player runs out of arrows, he or she must lay the GamePad horizontal to refill the quiver.

===Swordsman===
 
Like ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword]]'', the players' swords use Wii MotionPlus to enable direct control of the swords' movements. Pressing 'B' halts the player's movement and raises his or her shield. Enemies are targeted automatically, but players can switch targets by pressing 'A'. If the sword is held aloft for a few seconds, it will build energy and enable the next attack to become a powerful [[Spin Attack]], which has a wide range and can break wooden shields.
===Swordplay===
Like ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword]]'', the players' swords use Wii MotionPlus to enable direct control of the swords' movements. Pressing 'B' halts the player's movement and raises his or her shield. Several skills are available, including the [[Spin Attack]], and the [[Skyward Strike]], returning from ''Skyward Sword''.
