[Review] Wolfenstein: Youngblood

System: Switch
Release date: July 26, 2019
Developer: MachineGames / Arkane Studios / Panic Button
Publisher: Bethesda
If you’ve already had the pleasure of experiencing Wolfenstein: The New Colossus on Switch then you’re familiar with how the series has managed to distill the FPS formula down to perfection. In an era dominated by damp fetch quests and morally ambiguous “makes you think” villains, both MachineGames’ Wolfenstein and id Software’s Doom reboot have felt like a breath of fresh air for those of us who get misty-eyed over 90’s shooters. For the uninitiated, here’s a brief rundown: Entrench your mind in a Tetris-like zen state, and skittishly zip around maps that are designed less like real places and more like skateparks. You have two goals: Use gun and give death. Despite the immense praise both Wolfenstein and Doom have garnered over the course of this console generation, there may be a feeling over at Bethesda that change is now needed to differentiate these two franchises going forward, and this is exactly the impression I get from playing Wolfenstein: Youngblood.

At the end of last week, Bethesda brought Wolfenstein: Youngblood to multiple platforms, including Switch. Digital Foundry has now examined the shooter in greater detail from a technical perspective.
Wolfenstein: Youngblood features a dynamic resolution. When docked, it tends to hit 720p more often than not, though there are still dips below that. Portable resolution tends to stick at 540p. Interestingly, the experience this time around seems to be a bit sharper than Wolfenstein II.

Wolfenstein: Youngblood is coming to Switch thanks to the porting efforts of Panic Button. This isn’t the studio’s first go-around with the console, as they previously helped bring a couple of other Bethesda titles to the console – including Wolfenstein II.
Youngblood executive producer Jerk Gustafsson commented on the Switch version in an interview with GamesBeat. He said that it’s “a miracle” and called the folks at Panic Button “magicians.”
