It\u2019s Silksong release day, and many, many developers have chosen to push back release dates on games so as to avoid the clash. The same cannot be said for Star Wars Outlaws, which has rolled out on the Nintendo Switch 2 today. Ubisoft has no fear – and why should it? The Star Wars IP is immensely popular, so much so that it\u2019s even rivalling Silksong on the store.<\/p>\n
Well, okay, rivalling might be a strong word. It has, however, already claimed the second spot on the Nintendo eStore, showing that the port is doing well and is clearly well-liked. While we didn\u2019t necessarily love the game, we were promised, by the CEO of Ubisoft no less, a smoother and less buggy experience while playing Star Wars Outlaws on the Switch 2. Luckily, fans online have reported back positively, with many saying that framerates are stable, and many of the bugs have been ironed out.<\/p>\n
Star Wars Outlaws\u2019 release also raises some questions about the Switch 2\u2019s pivot to game-key cards rather than actual game cartridges. Some are pretty unhappy about the change – and I get that. Not only is it more costly for the consumer to have to buy more storage space for their console, but holding the cartridge in my hand is an irreplaceable experience.<\/p>\n
