While not a constant 60FPS, the game’s frame rate doesn’t appear to drop below 30FPS, which to me at least, is more than acceptable for a Switch port of such a huge game.īar the excellent technical translation of Original Sin 2, what’s even more impressive is just how well the gameplay has been adapted for the Switch’s limited control scheme. Throughout the various maps, I explored I barely recognised the loading screens that separated different areas and given the amount of content within each of these intricate maps it’s staggering to me how fluidly the game runs. While some of the more minute details do get squashed with the reduced resolution in handheld mode, it’s hardly worth complaining about when the game runs as smoothly as it does. Environments and locations always have a distinct and identifiable visual language that make them stand out from another and they translate fantastically onto the smaller screen. While maybe not having the high-fidelity graphics associated with most modern AAA games, the game always makes the most with what it’s got. Original Sin 2 has always been a striking game.

The mad lads! The absolute mad lads! They’ve done it this time, those cheeky Larian devs. Yet funnily enough, I was told last week that D:OS 2 was coming to Switch and rather than sigh with a disappointed sadness, I held my breath with fearful anticipation. No way would Larian Studios ever consider porting this game over, the task would have been monumental and a disservice to an otherwise incredible. What has been hailed by many as one of the best RPG’s of all time should never work on Switch if you’d have told me last week that D:OS 2 was making the jump to Switch I would have sighed with exasperation. Have you seen this game in action? Divinity: Original Sin 2 has always been a gorgeous game, not to mention a playground for physics-based combat and shenanigans. By all stretches of the imagination, this should never have worked. Honestly, I feel like we’re being blessed with a golden age of handheld ports.
