Oddworld: Stranger’s Wrath HD using rewritten graphics renderer on Switch
Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Oddworld: Stranger’s Wrath HD isn’t just a simple port on Switch. Along with some new features, Oddworld Inhabitants managed to make some technical improvements.
According to the developer, Oddworld: Stranger’s Wrath HD for Switch “offers a rewritten graphics renderer that improves shadows and makes those crisp HD textures look gorgeous running at 60 frames per second, at native resolutions in both handheld and docked modes.” Loading times are also now “updated to be blisteringly fast, thanks to a new system designed especially for this new Switch version of our classic Western adventure.” That’s on top of gyroscopic aiming controls.
Oddworld: Stranger’s Wrath HD launches for Switch on January 23, 2020.
Thanks to Jake for the tip.
Bayonetta 3’s development still going well
Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Bayonetta 3 was revealed at The Game Awards 2017, but news has been tough to come by since then. After that initial announcement, we’ve barely heard a peep about the upcoming Switch title.
PlatinumGames’ Hideki Kamiya did recently provide a small update. When one fan asked when we’ll hear something about Bayonetta 3, Kamiya responded: “Development’s going really well. There you go.”
While it’s admittedly not much to go on, it’s reassuring to hear that Bayonetta 3 remains on track. With Astral Chain having been released a few months ago, hopefully we’ll hear about PlatinumGames’ next Switch exclusive sometime in 2020.
