![]() Also, taking into consideration that other quality Switch games like Golf Story and Stardew Valley are retailing for $15, the $40 price tag seems unjustified as another case of the dreaded “Switch Tax”. However, despite these additions, $40 felt like a bit too much to ask given that the 3DS versions of the game came out some time ago at this point and retailed at a lower price. The most significant addition was the inclusion of all the DLC that I missed on the 3DS for the games with new stages, bosses, modes as well as brand new songs- one of which debuted exclusively for the Switch version. The remastered event artwork looks good on the TV, for the most part. The UI has been reworked given that there is now only one screen to work with, but as I was had all the information I needed readily available at all times, I didn’t miss the second screen at all, and the use of special moves was relegated to the second analog stick which worked well, even in the heat of battle. Fortunately, the port took advantage of the Switch hardware with the support of HD Rumble as well as the use of the Pro Controller which I used during my playthrough and to my delight, it worked perfectly well and was a great improvement from the 3DS control scheme. Unfortunately, during the gameplay, the game looked mostly the same, and some elements like the title screen didn’t look touched up in the slightest, feeling out of place with the rest of the visual presentation. It features improved level designs, boss battles, music and more, as it stands as exactly what a sequel should be.Īs for the improvement for the Switch version, the 30 FPS lock from the 3DS version has been bumped up to 60, and the various event artwork including character portraits and fonts have been remastered in HD. The sequel is the true fulfillment of the concept, adding Gunvolt’s rival Copen as a player character who plays radically different, leaving Gunvolt in the dust with incredibly fast and flexible movement options that are an absolute joy to master. While the first game is solid, it is rough around the edges in some parts and has the player in control of Gunvolt throughout the whole game.

Given that I’ve completed both of the Azure Striker Gunvolt games and have reviewed the second title here, I’ll simply defer to that opinion as the games remain largely unchanged. Length: 12~ hours to finish the story mode for both games, more than double to 100% Voice Acting: JPN only but other language subtitles are available The incredibly fast-paced movement of Copen sees the most benefit of the higher frame cap.
