Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition is now available on Nintendo Switch 2 & Nintendo Switch.

This is gonna be on Switch 1 as well? I would advise not buying it there, for the same reason I don't recommend The Outer Worlds. Well, The Outer Worlds looks and runs like trash on Switch, but it looked great on PC and Xbox.

Switch 2 is probably much more capable.

Fans of The Outer Worlds (and Bloodstained) on Switch will say "well it's the only way I can play it on mobile" and I guess that's a fair point, but it's still not a great experience.

~~I haven't seen how it runs on Switch 1, but it was originally a PS3 game, so Switch should be able to run it well. Depends on the port though.~~

Edit: SwitchUp review is out, yeah Switch 1 might not be the best choice, specially if you have another platform where you can play it on:

Not tried the outer worlds yet, but if it's anything like Bloodstained... yeah, I'm definitely not getting it on switch.

What a mess it was. I can accept a trade-off in visuals, but Bloodstained Switch went from completely unplayable to technically working but still unenjoyable, many months later. This thing was originally supposed to run on a Wii U and a freaking Vita. After that I think nobody can convince me to back a kickstarted game again.

Finally got a cheap PC version on gog, but, they should never have allowed that port to release in this state, nevermind making it a backer option.

This was a great game, but it’s pretty cheap on pc. I wonder what this price will be.

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 3 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

$19.99, but currently on launch sale for $17.99

[–] neon_nova@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

That’s not too bad to be honest. I was expecting them to go much higher.

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 3 points 18 hours ago

Yeah, same here. I was expecting the Switch tax, but this seems reasonable.
