WWG: "Let’s just throw it out there – 2016 has been a rough year. Donald Trump got elected president; a lot of movies truly disappointed us; and we lost so many great people this year, from David Bowie to Prince to, most recently, Carrie Fisher. It’s been a rough year for all of us, and we certainly can’t wait to see 2017 offer some idea of hope in just a matter of days.
But it wasn’t a total loss. We got a totally awesome new Star Wars movie for our troubles, Rogue One; Spider-Man finally joined the Marvel Cinematic Universe for Civil War; Hamilton ended up kicking ass on Broadway; HBO’s Westworld took a classic film in awesome new directions; and there was plenty of great moments with video games in 2016."
In 2023, developed by Blizzard Entertainment, Overwatch 2 was released, which was basically a big, glorified update of the original game that launched in 2016. Now, it’s simply reverted to being called just Overwatch, which is probably for the best.
The second iteration of Overwatch was released on the original Nintendo Switch, and while it’s still an enjoyable game with cross-play/progression functions, it’s still lacking in terms of performance and visuals, compared to its PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S counterparts. Well, it was.
As of today, the second iteration of Overwatch is natively available on the Nintendo Switch 2, just in time for Season 2: Summit.
The Nintendo Switch 2 version of Overwatch will have increased resolution both in handheld and docked modes, enhanced textures and lighting, up to 60 frames-per second, improved audio and more.
Blizzard is readying a patch to address the issue that the game is still running in Switch 1 build and just 30 fps.
you'd think they'd test it before pushing it live, lol.
that being said, clearly it's not running as intended.
They know it for sure. Maybe they didn't finish optimizing the game by the targeted release date. That's why they released the Switch 1 30fps version first. XD
It's important in life to maintain a broad palette when it comes to culture and the arts. Hideo Kojima agrees, as he continues to use video games like Death Stranding to introduce people to music and other elements they might not otherwise discover.
Nexon has entered a publishing agreement with Blizzard for Overwatch in Korea, with the companies working to deliver services 'tailored' for the region.
The trailers for Red Dead and the Switch were definitely my highlights. Thanks for the trip down memory lane, Pozzle.
