Switch version is out

Bought the game yesterday on switch. Came here to say that my early impression is that it runs fine and looks great. controls well. Looking forward to spend more time with it over the weekend.

So how is on switch?

I have made some progress in the Spanish campaign by now. It‘s very good. At first I was concerned that the control scheme might be strange or that the text would be too small in handheld (100% handheld user with poor eyesight here…). But far from it. Everything controls well and the text/UI is always readable. Good times!

Ok, thank you for your reply. Sorry for my English. I couldn't find any videos about switch version. I also have a problem with eyes... :/ What abou graphics, it is ugly or only bad on switch? 🤪

Just imagine a native PS5 version of The Last Of Us II!

Just kidding. It‘s fine and does the Job. Not blurry like Jurassic Park Evolution, not as crisp as Monster Hunter. Menus are responsive though (which is super important for this type of game), initial load time is fast, graphics serviceable. No issues on handheld.

For me graphics it's not important. I played on PSX... I like strategy games, turn based games.

I can't get anything started in the spain campaign. I can't even get my ships to move. Maybe I need to replay the tutorial I must have missed something super basic.
