This game is great. I had it for the PS4 and compared it to the gameplay on the Nintendo Switch. I only play it handheld so the experience was quite different. But it would be like comparing apples to oranges. The gameplay is great, but I think that the game can be to much for the system sometimes and it will randomly close the game during gameplay.

The whole reason I bought a switch was because I saw it’s now compatible with the Nintendo switch lite!!! It’s my favorite game ever and I’m so happy I’m able to play it anywhere!

Im a huge fan of the borderlands series so this was a much purchase for me. All of the game is on the cartridge but the dlc must be downloaded from the eshop. The game suffers from the usual switch port frame rate drop and lag and has crashed a few times on me though. Also no couch coop but does feature local and online coop. No crossplay like the other versions of the game however.

The game itself is great. If you've played any of the other Borderlands games then you know what you're getting. The only thing I hate is that it does not support couch-op (local co-op). I specifically bought this for that reason so that my girlfriend and I could play together at home just like we've been doing for all of the other Borderlands games. Not having that support was very disappointing as we were looking forward to playing this game together. Now the only way we can play this together is to get another Nintendo Switch, another copy of Borderlands 3, and a family online membership! That's way too costly at being over $400 and no way we are going to do that. I just hope that Borderlands or Nintendo will release a software update for this game to support couch-op (local co-op) like all its other games do. Please fix this!

Bought this while it was on sale. They did a great job porting this to the Switch. Does take a little to load and of course this isn't going to be the graphic powerhouse but I definitely do recommend picking it up. It's great having a physical copy of the game and being able to play it handheld.

They did a decent job of bringing the Borderlands 3 experience to the Nintendo Switch. The required memory varies between 8gb and 24gb, depending on how many of the DLC packs you install. The main downsides are the blurry visuals, the pop-in details, and game crashes. I probably had the game crash four times over six hours. If you can tolerate the graphical issues and crashes, it is a pretty good time.

A bit laggy on the switch, but didn't run into any real issues during gameplay (everything loaded correctly, no character issues, doesn't look crystal clear but good enough, dialogue was quicker than the subtitles, but still fun enough to play on the go). Beat the game and nothing went wrong, only a bit more loading time than what you would get on a PC or game system (i originally played this game on ps4).

If you liked the previous borderlands then youll definitely enjoy this title. This game is newcomer friendly. I purchased this game specifically to play wirh a friend because shes new to playing video games. She has recently has started an interest in playing other games than your typical crash and spyro titles. Anyhow its a fun game and i paid 20 dollars for this game so its a no brainer.

While I really like this franchise, I am disappointed in the frequency in which it crashes. The game often loses connection with the server and shuts down to the switch Home Screen. Maybe the developers will fix this problem as more people play this game on the switch platform.

It’s not as good as I expected. I own it on Steam/ PS4 but I wanted a portable option. The frames are not the best for switch surprisingly but it’s still a better port then most other games ported to the switch.

I truly never thought I would see the day that this game was ported to the Nintendo Switch and in the state the game is in overall. Sure there are the expected graphical and frame rate cutbacks vs other platforms, but the entire game along with all DLC included is here and playable on the go! Impressive for what it is, IMHO.
