    If you want a title that offers you full freedom to develop your own adventure, No Man's Sky allows you this fact wherever you want. However, it has some technical problems that may make you not enjoy it to the fullest. However, that's the price to pay for playing a game like this anywhere you like.

    No Man's Sky is just playable on the Switch. The necessary graphical downgrades are not surprising, but the lack of multiplayer is. Fortunately, no further content has been cut. No Man's Sky can therefore fulfill all your space fantasies in a lonely and unstable way.

It is the same NMS experience as every other platform with obvious and reasonable compromises in graphical and online play. When 4.0 comes it will likely be even better. If you like NMS and have a Switch it should be an Insta-buy. Full Review »
