By far the most common issue players had with the Switch version of Star Wars: Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast was the lack of an option to invert the Y-axis, a popular choice for games that require precise aiming.

Update: Bumped to the top. Aspyr now says it is working on an update to add aim inversion, and it will be made available “in the coming weeks.”
Original: Only after it was announced in this month’s Nintendo Direct, Star Wars: Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast landed on the Switch eShop today. However, players were quick to notice an option that’s missing in the game’s settings.
Star Wars: Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast doesn’t have inverted controls. In other words, there’s no option to invert aim (y-axis/x-axis). A number of other settings are available, including support for gyro aiming on Switch, but not that one.
Aspyr has yet to say if it will be patching in the control option. If we hear anything about the situation, we’ll let you know.
