Announced today, Dungeons & Dragons Neverwinter Nights 2: Enhanced Edition is on the way to Nintendo Switch. Aspyr will be releasing it on the console.

Obsidian Entertainment originally made Neverwinter Nights 2 in 2006. It has not been released again – until now. The remaster includes all expansions, cross-play, and more.

A bunch of additional details can be found in the following overview:

Xbox and Obsidian issued a new version 1.4.4 update for Grounded, which includes some Switch-specific additions and changes such as gyro support.

Gyro functionality is optional, and it can be turned on and off with one of the settings. Elsewhere Microsoft accounts are no longer permanently linked, cutscenes have been improved to make them less choppy, and more.

The full overview of the update is as follows:

Grounded update 1.4.2

Another update went live for Grounded this week, and version 1.4.2 is out now.

The patch brings along technical improvements, some changes, and more. One of the more notable things here is that loading a saved game takes less time now, and it’s 60+ seconds faster. Asset popping is also reduced along with short draw distanced in the Sandbox.
