The screenshots appeared on the Eshop’s official store page for the game before Nintendo eventually removed them. The reasoning behind their removal is currently unclear, but it might just be a case of someone flipping the switch too early. Either way, you can see them below.
VGC confirmed that the screenshots are real, and they certainly look like they’re taken from a Switch version of the game. Much like The Witcher 3 port, there’s a loss of sharpness and detail that’s to be expected. The real test will depend on how well it runs both docked and undocked.
The prospect of being able to play The Outer Worlds on the go is certainly an enticing one. Edmond Tran rewarded Obsidian’s latest 9/10 in GameSpot’s review late last year. “I finished The Outer Worlds wanting more, eager to jump back into the world to see extra things. It’s not a short game, but it’s one packed with such a steady stream of wonderful characters to meet, interesting places to explore, and meaningful, multi-layered quests to solve, that it didn’t feel like there was any room to get tired of it. I wanted to rewind the clock and do everything in a completely different way. The Outer Worlds is consistently compelling throughout, and it’s a superb example of how to promote traditional RPG sensibilities in a sharp, modern experience.”
