Gyro motion aiming confirmed for Wolfenstein II on Switch
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Back in February, Bethesda and Panic Button updated the Switch version of Doom. One of the highlights was an additional control scheme, allowing players to take advantage of gyro motion aiming.
Wolfenstein II is another first-person shooter Bethesda and Panic Button are bringing to Switch. Fans will be happy to hear that the optional gyro motion aiming will be making a return. Even better, it will be there from the start, so we won’t have to wait for an update to add in the feature.
Here’s the confirmation from Wolfenstein’s Twitter account:
