    I’m sad to admit it, but Dead by Daylight on Nintendo Switch is a huge let-down. I love the game, and while I was excited to get to play it on a handheld format, its lagginess, framerate issues and massive graphical downgrade mean that I just can’t recommend it on Switch. If you’re still tempted to give it a try, perhaps wait a month or two and see if any patches come out to fix some of the current painful and glaring issues. Until then, the price simply isn’t worth what you get. Stick to playing it on another format; trust me, you’ll have a much better experience.

    The lower resolution graphics were expected, though the lack of 2 of the killers available on other plantforms is disappointing, it does not take away from the enjoyment of playing this game anywhere you can connect to the internet with your switch. Not necessarily for the hardcore gamer, it definitely plays well for casual fun.    … Full Review »

    Gonna be honest, the frame rate drags a little, and the graphics are crap. But if you love the D-B-D formula already, this game is for you! IGonna be honest, the frame rate drags a little, and the graphics are crap. But if you love the D-B-D formula already, this game is for you! I can say that it brings the 85% of the experience to the switch, so fans who have already played it will be please, but newcomers may find the steep price and technical drawbacks a bit too painful.
