    Hungry Shark World: Console Edition is much more than a simple port, both technically and in terms of gameplay. Removing in-game purchases and improving the sharks’ control make the experience significantly better. However, although the game is fun, its extreme simplicity can make it repetitive for some players after just a few hours.

    Hungry Shark World is a noticeable step above its mobile ancestor, with improved controls across the board. Sadly, a few technical hiccups and a distinct lack of depth hold it back significantly.

    If you find Ecco the Dolphin a bit dull, Hungry Shark World is an ideal antidote – what it lacks in finesse it makes up for with vicious energy. The gated content is doled out a little slowly, but the base gameplay is fast and satisfying, if a little repetitive. However, it's the interminable loading screens that truly destroy the pace and hamper the arcade-style fun, making this one hard to recommend.

They've got rid of the grind from the mobile and the in appReally enjoying this re-imagining of the Hungry Shark Mobile game on Console. They've got rid of the grind from the mobile and the in app purchases. now its a straight progression with a really light story that I keep forgetting to read whenever I rescue sharks.
    Oh and you have little boss battles to rescue sharks rather than just unlocking them. it's pretty fun.    … Expand

    Terrible Switch port that was never fixed and seemingly abandoned by Ubisoft. My best runs were never recorded by the game because it crashedTerrible Switch port that was never fixed and seemingly abandoned by Ubisoft. My best runs were never recorded by the game because it crashed at the end of them. Every. Single. Time.

    The loading time is absolutely abominable—especially for a game the runs much better on my considerably less powerful Android tablet. The core game is wonderful but, if you can play it on another system, you should probably do that. As much as it pains me to say it, the Nintendo Switch port is probably a waste of your time and money. It was certainly a waste of mine.    … Expand

    O jogo seria muito bom se os bugs fossem corrigidos. O jogo dá erro com certa frequência e encerra o software sem salvar. O suporte da UbisoftO jogo seria muito bom se os bugs fossem corrigidos.

    O jogo trava a cada duas partidas, isso deve ter um memory leak gigantesco, fiquei com Zelda ligar durante um mês e nunca travou.
