Customers value the solid gameplay and engaging story of The Outer Worlds, with many praising the portability of the Switch version for on-the-go play. While some players enjoyed the open world and action elements, others noted performance issues, including frame rate drops and lower resolution compared to other platforms. The game's quirky story was also a highlight for many. Despite some technical drawbacks on the Switch, the positive reception to the core gameplay and story suggests a generally enjoyable experience.

Graphical Dumpster Fire
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.TLDR: Don't buy. Poorly executed port. This is a game that should not have been ported to the switch. Too much was removed or too heavily decreased in quality to make this port work, the game looks unfinished in this form. Ranged combat suffers due to the decrease in render distances, and the world as a whole is a bland smeary looking mess. I made it to the first city before deciding to never play this version again. I will be buying the game again once its released on steam, because the game itself was worth playing, just not this version. The only reason I don't return the game is that I pre-ordered it with multiple discounts and it was shipped to me, it doesn't seem worth the effort to return it due to the ongoing pandemic. Do not buy this game on the switch unless you have a high tolerance for bad graphics. I thought I did and this game proved that I do not.

Okay Game, Could Be Better
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Worth the money if you get it for $20. Not worth it if you are spending more than that.

Total mess of a port
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I tempered my expectations as this is a proper console game, but it looks atrocious on the Switch. I don't usually care about graphics but this was distractingly ugly - even with the latest patches. Re-bought on PS4 and it's actually playable!

Don't waste your time and money.
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.To be honest the game looks and performs horrible on Switch. Basically Un playable in my opinion. And it's expensive too. Do yourself a favor and play it for PS4 and save yourself 30$ too.

Zero Clarity
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I lost interest in this game really fast. I just couldn’t get past the awful graphics. Not to mention the gameplay wasn’t very interesting either. I took a chance buying this new & couldn’t be any more disappointed. Do not recommend.

The Switch can't do the game justice
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Switch is an amazing console but this particular game does not transfer well to the Switch. Graphics are pretty bad, like 2008 bad or worse. Graphics shouldn't be the most major part of a game but in this case, it is so bad that the game becomes not very fun (especially for $60). You can't even read the billboards in the game, and the flora and fauna in the open world don't render well at all so it completely kills what would otherwise be a very atmospheric experience. I'd definitely recommend getting this on a different machine.

Not a good port
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this on the switch because I like playing RPGs in handheld mode. Unfortunately, this port is not good. If you can play via another console then do it.

Not for me
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.May be good on console or P.C. Just not a good game for a switch, might be just the graphics or gameplay is different from what I’m used to.

Mobile Game
