And that trade-off is acceptable because performance is rock solid-and, remarkably, the Switch's relatively small screen is capable of handling everything you need to see without feeling cramped. The lower resolution results in the game looking blurry in certain spots, but not to a problematic degree. Visually, there is a noticeable downgrade in both the docked and handheld modes. The turn-based nature of combat lends itself to short bursts of gameplay in handheld mode, though it's a difficult game to put down once you get started. The control scheme, as with that of the PS4 and Xbox One versions, works well here despite the lack of a traditional mouse-and-keyboard setup. Larian's acclaimed RPG makes the transition to Switch intact (except for couch co-op, though online and local wireless play are available) with very little in the way of compromises. Editor's note: The Nintendo Switch version of Divinity: Original Sin II Definitive Edition seems as if it shouldn't work on the hybrid console, and yet it does wonderfully.
