Update 1.0.1 (Day 1) Patch is out and it makes a flipping big difference to some of the visuals and performance. Textures are better. Frame rates are better. Shadows are so much better... I'll definitely cover the update and potentially rescore some segments. Mark
The update is OUT NOW. Keep and eye on the channel for an All Patched Up episode soon. Might be my biggest ever technical review, sheesh this was effort haha but I thoroughly enjoyed myself! Let me know what you think. Mark
SHEEEESH!!!
For me, this is a hot candidate for the worst Switch port. Sorry THQ Nordic should have released this as a launch title for the Switch 2. Because as it is, it really doesn’t make sense. It’s a shame, because I like the game and I think it’s underrated. But like this? It deserves its bad reviews
Well done Mark!
Thanks for the informative tech review, this game is on my to play list, good to know how this is performing, while I understand that switch is aging, it does make me wonder how this will run on the Switch 2 ~
I am glad u guys did this review...I'm still gone get cuz I'm a fan of dis game nd yall channel..I'll playing til da update
It never ceases to amaze me what they can do with this ancient mobile Tegra SOC from 2015! It’s just mind blowing. Think how much CPUs and graphic chips and mobile SOCs have advanced over the past 9 years.
Exactly right. It also give a lot of hope for what comes next. Even if it's three year old tech they'll be able to squeeze a lot from it. Mark
@@SwitchUpYtthe guys from digital foundry got Cyberpunk running pretty well on the equivalent what the hardware will supposedly be. Much better than eg Witcher 3 on the current Switch.
Now imagine the people who got Breath of the Wild and Mario Odyssey running so well on the current switch having access to it for years, and developing directly for it. It could be incredible.
@@XhoowieX witcher 3 is superb on switch
Goddamn right😃
@@mikeuk666 I'm not complaining about witcher 3 on Switch, it's great for what it is. But they had Cyberpunk on medium settings at 1080p and 30fps. Witcher 3 on Switch is not medium PC settings at 1080p...
Remember when Sonic on the MegaDrive first came out and everyone was OBSESSED with how realistic the lighting on his spines was?
No, me neither
Lol, what are you even talking about? For one thing, of course they weren't as 3D graphics were in their nascent stages, but they also heavily used Sonic to market the power of the Genesis with the whole "Blast Processing" thing.
No but them 3D looking palm trees were the dogs bollocks.
You're the kindest reviewers, which to me makes sense for the Switch when it gets games so late. Honest for sure, but kind about it. Sometimes you just want to hear from people who clearly still like games.
Yeah we try to just be fair but honest. No hyperbolic nonsense. Mark
Holy Mole' I can't believe they ported this. I enjoyed this game on PC and Xbox. On the switch, it looks like it came out 15 years ago.
I always love your reviews and now totally rely on them. Don’t buy any thing (except cheapies on sale) on switch without checking with switchup first. And so nice to hear fellow countrymen’s voices on this platform and doing so well too. Amanda ps also appreciate never any click bait - you get what it says on the tin!
Thank you mate. Mark
He's totally right. I've followed your reviews on many of my purchases and you haven't steered me wrong.
What's a tin. Jk I get it
@@Teachermook they are such thought out reviews too. It means you can decide well that part that isnt so good for eg wouldnt bother me so it’s ok or the opposite. I like that. Amanda
Playing game since the atari, I never understood peoples obsession with perfect frame pacing. You got a HANDHELD running a massive game. It is remarkable that it is even on this console.
Definitely. The games I play for fun tend to run like poop but for many people want to know exactly what they're getting it's not necessarily a negative thing if that makes sense. It's just being fully informed BEFORE you spend money. Mark
Oh it makes a huge difference when done properly
Dam right.. it amazes me😊
Because it ruins the game looking at you start wars 2
I think 60 FPS is fine for games forever, but people push it to hundreds.
Thank you so much for the review!! I was waiting, crossing my fingers. I hope that the patch will improve the game as much as possible, but all in all I still want to play this game! Let's hope for the better ~
So play it elsewhere.
As a Yank, I always come to SwitchUp for reviews and everything else.
Thank you mate. Mark
And for savaloys
I really hope that the Switch 2 or whatever it's going to be called will be powerful enough to not have technical aspects downgraded as much as some Switch ports have.
Until then, your technical reviews are highly appreciated, man! ❤
A cat in a Mech suite? If i knew that i would have picked it up a while ago! Speaking of narration, i think Matt Berry should narrate every game ever made, i could listen to that man all day.
I was able to play it on switch and i have to say it isnt that bad. It is the switch-version of a good looking open world game. After 7 years we get switch-versions like 3ds version of games or wii versions of games back in the days.
PS: patch is out.
Definitely still picking this up for my physical collection.
I remember when this first came out...soooo much potential. Hoping for a new and improved sequel.
Appreciate you getting this out so early. I've been hoping to pre-order this, but was concerned about performance. Looks good enough for me - though a few patches to improve things further would be great. Thanks again!
I’m so pleased the patch has improved things, as I was so happy to see this come to Switch!! Will wait for your update video before buying it though.
You guys have done it again. I didn't think I would see any channel covering this but of course my fav Switch channel has. Appreciate it. I am picking this up as a physical today because I love these ports on Switch. I will see if there is a patch today. 🎉
Good man I'll check as well, nothing yet
I picked it up two days ago with the 20% off from pre-order. I do hope few things improve with some patches. Still going to play it. I enjoy playing it so much on PS4.
Hey, I always wanted to play this, and I personally don't have time to game on my home console - only my switch.
In that case, would you still recommend picking this up for the switch? I don't care much for graphics tbh.
As long as gameplay, and smoothness isn't game breaking. Thanks! ❤🎉
Well, it definitely has some performance issues, but looks so vibrant and colorful! Thanks for the very in depth review, I didn’t know much about this game 😊
I like Demakes .. . And with that being said, I like that that so many of these games are ported over to the switch even if they have to be downgraded a little bit. I hate to see people complaining so much about these games where sacrifices and adjustments had to be made but still, all things considered, I'm always glad to have these ports and hope they continue!
I have been waiting for the Switch version of this game since this game was announced. I’m definitely playing it. Good to know how it looks and runs though. Seems decent enough for such a large game. I’m sure the Switch 2 upgrade will look great
Definitely. Mark
I got the game on my switch recently. It pretty good so far. The graphics aren't too bad. I am enjoying it so far.
Thanks so so much ❤ was really looking forward to seeing this, super keen on this Game Much Love ❤
This is why I love the Switch. Good ported games even with some downgrades in textures etc can still play amazing on this device. Witcher 3, Doom Eternal, The Outer Worlds and Remnant From The Ashes ...all amazing great ports imo. I am hyped for the new successor of the Nintendo Switch and I hope Switch 1 games can be run on bc.
I just bought the physical copies Double Dragon Gaiden, Double Dragon Collection and Metroid Prime Remastered. My family wont see me for a month😂.
And as always great in depth review! I may pick this one up this year. The Last Faith and Castevania advance collection are next in line for purchase
It will be very interesting to revisit this port with an all patched up video, can't wait to see that video. Honestly one of the best series of videos you guys make, invaluable content
The fact that this is possible and the switch is locked to an underclocked setting is insane
I'm playing this game on Switch Lite, and I can hear the music during the opening movie, but the screen is black and nothing is displayed. Is this a bug?
@ 1:04 - what controllers are those? They're awesome.
Edit- Nevermind, link in the description! Wonderful!!!
Mark, quick question, when it comes to capturing footage for handheld performance for the video, how do you do it? Is there specific equipment or software you prefer to use?
It actually looks way more solid than I was expecting, honestly. And sure, it looks worse than other versions, but if this were the only version I think we'd be blown away by how good it looks on a portable!
Then, when you have found the shrubbery, you must place it here beside this shrubbery, only slightly higher, so you get a two-level effect with a little path running down the middle....
Huh
@@SwitchUpYt I can’t hear “shrubbery” without my mind going straight to the Monty Python’s Holy Grail. Sorry for the distraction. Please carry on!
A big thanks for this massive review (and all the others before ^.^ ). In 2021 i hesitated because of the massive hype/hate waves it has received but now for Switch the time feels right and i bought it a few hours ago. Cant w8t to play... and looking forward for the next all patched up 😉
I asked for a review during a previous video and then you deliver. Yall are awesome!
Hope you enjoyed it! Mark
Thinking about grabbing that 20% discount before it runs out, but only if the upcoming day 1 patch improves on it. Unfortunately both doesn't work 😅
Hope to hear some good news regarding this game on Friday's APU. Thanks for the review. Cheers.
For a most switch ports, you don't really see the downgrade until you see the other versions.
What are the joycons you were using around the 12 minute mark?
Funtek info and 15% disciunt in description. Mark
Excited for this one
Put many hours into outward recently due to its freedom, just enjoying exploring, gathering loot and playing through the multiple stories with multiple builds ECT. So I am very much looking forward to trying out biomutant which sounds similar in those regards.
I think this will be a nice pick up on a good sale, after some patches. Could be a lot of fun!
I think so too!
This is the kind of review I love the channel for, in-depth analysis of performance including handheld (incredibly relevant to me) while still covering the "fun" of the game and remaining objective. I really appreciate the effort you go to Mark and look forward to seeing more especially on the upcoming release of Morbid. I do hope Sabre Interactive continues to work on it and All Patched Up reports significant improvements even if it takes a few episodes as I'd quite enjoy picking it up in future. Thanks Mark!
Algo tickled. Thanks Mark.
Anyone else buying a few of these unoptimized games in good faith that they will run smoothly and great on the switch 2 ?
Not a day one for me personally but will pick it up after a good discount. Happy gaming!
Ok, I am starting to watch this video right now because I preordered the game(not knowing you guys would do a performance review before release and I wanted to benefit from the discount).
AWESOME content as always
Appreciate that
You the best at these reviews bro 🔥 BUYING THIS GAME RIGHT NOW!!
Thanks mate! Mark
It's amazing the Switch can even deliver these types of games. So much need for Switch 2.
Very curious about this game. Looks fun.
Looking at you, Eiyuden Chronicles
I want to say this about the game reminds me of the Fable games series. One through 3 Fable.
What is the exact build and design of character in thumbnail!?
I might take a shot and buy this one.
1:51 Pokemon Scarlet/Violet games seems to have same look as Biomutant, if not better. Great job everyone! Biomutant looks fun, its a W that it came out even!
Super Switch needs to arrive soon. Great video nonetheless, really appreciate these technical in depth videos, helps me a lot 👍🏻
As a 90's kid, these lowered visuals don't bother me as much, but if you grew up spoiled by better then I guess this version would be a turn-off.
Still looking forward to this one.
Same same I can play ANY level of bad performances and if the game is good I can enjoy myself. Mark
Holy Cow😮😱This looks pretty good!!!
why does the ps5 verison not have the gyro aiming on the guns?
I really enjoyed Biomutant on my Xbox. My personal favourite about this game is the weapon crafting, exploration and character builds.
My Mutant started from a melee focused character to finally be a magic gunslinger. You are be really OP with a certain loadouts. I do hope they up the graphics a bit via patches though. I wholeheartedly recommend Biomutant!
Preordered this game because I enjoyed the console version when it was on ps plus. Excited to play on the go! I don’t care for graphics downgrades
The game looks interesting but I definitely want to hold up and see what this patch does. Looking forward to your upcoming all patched up series to see if I should go ahead and get this one or just wait for a sale.
What joycons are those with the green neon??
They’ve got the link in the description
Picked it up for $10 for the PS5 and haven't even touched it yet. Will get around to it at some point in my life lol
I've not played this on other platforms, but I have purchased this today. Love your reviews as always. Let's hope the developers do patch this game and make it less yank. Nice to hear they've contacted switchup with a promise of a patchup...
The go-to game I always go back to, tho is MH Rise, as that game is unbeatable
Can't wait to play this game is amazing
It is a fun game beneath the bank for sure. Mark
it plays fine now!
Perfect timing. I've not heard good things about this switch port. Seems to be the norm currently 😢
I think so mate. Mark
Ive been waiting for the port of Syberia a world before and when you ask is it coming to switch they don’t reply (and they generally answer comments i find) but when asked are you porting to Nintendo they say yes. I wonder if the clue is that the companies now know a ‘switch 2’ is on the way. And the ones that are bothering to port just cant really do it on this hardware now plus they know it might be a waste of time??
I pre-ordered this as soon as I could, as my PC is too old to play this and from what I read and seen it didn’t meet expectations, but it’s no Anthem! Hope it’s still fun.
Grounded was awesome. Keep in mind it is a switch. Also was Kingdom come deliverance.
Can you do a review of Animal Well. You're opinions often allign with mine and I'd like to hear your thoughts on Dunky's first game as publisher
Really enjoyed this game on PC, Switch lacks games like this for me,sorta like AC Odyssey kind of exploration with lots to do,sidequests, hidden items
I would have preferred a somewhat lower resolution in exchange for better textures.
Whew, the textures look ROUGH!
That wouldn’t help. Textures are stored in the RAM so lowering the resolution would not have given you more ram to use for textures. Combine that with the relatively slow ram in the switch that’s why so many switch games have low quality textures, especially on games built for more powerful hardware
@@crestofhonor2349 I feel educated. Thanks! My simpleton brain assumed all resources are pulled from the same pot.
Then again.. I haven’t dabbled in PC gaming in years, so messing around with graphics settings and hardware load are a bit fuzzy for me.
I'm a bit Nathalie Imbruglia (torn) on this one. I wanted to love it. Wanted to get it. But now I'm not so sure. Hopefully the all patched up review will be better ... i won't be holding my breath though.
Haha that made me chuckle! Mark
Dang it! I wanted to get this game so bad. I will wait for the patch though…
The update is already out on switch right now to let you and others know, it came out at least in very very few minutes or hours after it was released to play at 6:00 am NY time for switch
Nice one thanks for the heads up!
After The Witcher 3 port, I'm not surprised at all that Saber could pull this off. Looks great!
Been curious on how this would work
Yeah it is certainly the Switch version. Mark
Im actually excited about this game now. A lower price makes it less painful when it gets janky. After watching a lot of videos on Biomutant, it shows some really unique and interesting stuff.
I'm genuinely excited for it now! I can always count on you guys to be honest but give the score I actually care about "Did I have fun?" Which is a yes and counts all the bad as well. I was worried because every other review I found was "BAD UNPLAYABLE GAME! NO BUY" and not once the incoming patch! This is again why I look to you all for the final review because you mentioned it!
I'm walking away happy with my preorder and excited to play it! 😃
I bought this on PC at launch and I really enjoyed it, it's full of jank but there is a really good game at it's core. If they had another go to refine and cut out the chaff they could make a really good sequel.
How likely do you think they are gonna give it significant performance updates?
Very very likely. This is Saber Interactive we're talking about. Mark
@@SwitchUpYt your words? 😅 Yeah, cause for me, it rarely happens where it really just comes down to that performance wether its a pick up for me or not. Thx!✌🏽
I should probably start watching these *before* I buy the game.
Imo the smaller screen, i.e switch lite, it looks really good considering that this is a modern game. I might check it out next month Lord willing and the creek don't rise. This looks awesome.
Not really
I wanted this game so bad because it looked so vibrant on the previews. 😫 I may still pick it up on a sale...... along with the pieces of my now broken heart. 😅
Curious how this runs. 😮
I'm not going to lie. This looks far far better than I was expecting! I still don't think I'll be picking it up on switch, but I was expecting far worse.
Honestly plays better then i was expecting it too. They might patch it up or give up on it
visual look so much better than Pokemon scarlet & violet. despite that its really time for Nintendo to make Switch 2 with at least 2 times peformance from current Switch, targeting all game at 60fps at least
Looking forward to this one, even after the expected "the Switch was always weaker and now is also very old" review. :D I preordered the game because i never got around to actually try it ony any other system.
It's a fun game still, they did the best they could. Mark
Tickle the algorithm. I'm tickled. 😆
I played it on the Xbox and I really enjoyed it, I think the world is very explorable and really liked the narrator. It's a shame it wasn't better received
If i can make it through The Outer Worlds, i can make it through this 😅
Thanks for the review, i think I'll wait until it's £20 or less and then give it a go 👌
Thanks for the review. I was specifically waiting for the Switch version but I think I'll pass for now unless the physical goes on a steep sale.
I'm surprised this game actually came to Switch after all, because I'm under the impression it didnt do very well commercially on the other systems. Which is a shame, because I really enjoyed it on Xbox and I think people who want to try something properly unique should give it a try. Probably not on Switch, mind, there are just too many compromises made to make it worthwhile by the looks of things.
The truth is always behind the Switch up review.
Whatever happened to the one with the girl that was supposed to be super free roam that you can drop down from your spaceship to the planet
Biomutant is a game many of us have been waiting for... a mutant animal rpg with a TMNT Mutanimals feel. I hope the devs stick with this game/world/universe for many versions to come. Bugs and all.
Since the game had issues on PC when it was originally released, good solid port once knowing this isn't a lively open world and more fight how you want
Always wished I could be a reptile
I think this is one I’ll keep on Xbox, I enjoyed my time with it then but this isn’t worth a second purchase, now Remnant is a game I’ll be buying again for switch.
I think it plays like Monster Hunter Rise on the Switch, up to the loading of stuff while in-game. Or am I seeing it wrong?
Are you going to rename your channel when switch 2 comes out? 😅😂
