    Great game that's finally getting the switch port love. Its amazing how well the game runs on switch. Although the fps has been reduced from 60 to 30 it can be jarring if you're used to playing the game on PS4 or Xbox.

    I bought this game knowing that it's inferior to the PS4/XBOX versions, but getting to play it again, it doesn't look bad at all!!! I'm extremely impressed with this port and I am surprised it was able to fit in a cart!

    Fun game and story but older looking world.

    Good based on just the start. I haven't had any frame rate issues that I can notice (non game mode on an LG Oled) but the npcs look a little bland and the world isn't as exploratory as I would expect when running through it. The story and premise and how the game itself (settings, etc) are an extension of the story is nice. I'm getting Metal Gear series vibes. I'm sure the story will end up pulling me in more to the world but for now, at the surface/entrance, I was hoping the world would do that.

    Played this on PS4 and PC and got all endings. Doing it again especially on the go and it runs surprisingly well. Makes me wonder if they’ll port Replicant to the Switch somewhere down the road.

    this is a great port to the Nintendo switch. the game play was solid as the PlayStation version. however the graphic do take a hit in some area of the game, it is noticeable. beside the graphic, everything is the exact same as the playstion version. i would recommend if you enjoy the portable play on the Nintendo siwtch, but if you prefer better graphics then the playstion version is the one you should buy for this game.

    This is a classic! Played it on the PS4 and wanted to see (and play again) on the Switch since I am able to travel with it now so yes, I say it’s worth it.

    Great game for new or returning players of this episode in the Drakengard series. Excellent port to Switch. This is not my first platform or playthrough (1st on pc launch then ps4, kind of backwards) and it runs very smooth with only 1 noticeable fps drop. Glad i can enjoy the story on the go on a new platform. As a Drakengard fan i hope they will continue to remaster and port more of the series. Patiently waiting for Gestalt/ Replicant port to Switch now.
