At this early juncture in the Switch‘s life, few third-parties have supported the console as fully as Bethesda. On top of its widely acclaimed RPG, Skyrim, the publisher has brought Doom–one of the most brutal and visually intensive shooters of the current generation–to the hybrid console courtesy of developer Panic Button, which is also handling the upcoming Switch port of Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus.
As with the Switch version of Doom before it, Panic Button has made some sacrifices to bring Wolfenstein II to Nintendo’s hybrid console. The game is capped at 30 FPS, with a lower resolution and some muddier textures than the PS4, Xbox One, and PC versions. Despite this, the experience still remains very much intact. Some visual compromises aside, Wolfenstein II looks and feels like the same game that launched for other platforms last fall, and while it may not be quite as pretty as those versions, it’s still one of the most visually impressive games coming to Nintendo’s console.
We had a chance to go hands-on with the Switch version of Wolfenstein II at PAX East 2018. In the video above, you can watch us play through a portion of the game’s second chapter in docked mode. Like the Switch version of Doom, Wolfenstein II will also support motion-controlled aiming using the controller’s gyroscope; that option wasn’t available for us to try during our hands-on session, but it will be available in the game from launch.
Bethesda still hasn’t announced a release date for the Switch version of Wolfenstein II, but the game is slated to launch for the console sometime this year. The shooter was one of the most acclaimed games of 2017; GameSpot’s Kallie Plagge awarded it a 9/10 in our Wolfenstein II review and said, “Despite some heavy-handed moments that feel like missteps in its message, satisfying Nazi-killing action bolsters its completely bonkers storyline in a way that only Wolfenstein can achieve.”
It’s the match many were hoping to see when two of the greatest wrestlers in the world finally joined the WWE in the last few years. AJ Styles and Shinsuke Nakamura–who both built their names and reputation outside of Vince McMahon’s promotion–have competed against each other only once before (an extremely well-received match at NJPW’s Wrestle Kingdom 10). But their bout for the WWE Championship at Wrestlemania 34 this Sunday, April 8(the Kickoff Show begins at 5 PM ET/2 PM PT) marks the first time the two have wrestled each other in the WWE, and it’s expected to be one of the best matches on a stacked card.
While the wrestling itself is expected to be great, the lead-up to the match on Sunday has been somewhat tepid. Nakamura won this year’s Royal Rumble and promptly challenged AJ Styles for the WWE Championship. But rather than build from there, WWE decided to put doubt in the fans’ minds, forcing Styles to defend his championship at the Fastlane PPV in March against five other wrestlers (including the then-directionless John Cena). But even after Styles retained, the on-screen build between the two has been listless, save for a couple of patronising head pats (first from Nakamura to Styles after an aborted Kinshasa, and then Styles to Nak after a cancelled Phenomenal Forearm).
So all we’re left with is the in-ring action, which, if the pedigree of these two performers is any indication, is sure to be one of the standouts at this year’s Wrestlemania (if we had to pick, we’re saying Nakumara will walk away with belt).We’ll be watching it live as it airs this Sunday, beginning at 5 PM ET/2 PM PT for the Kickoff Show on the WWE Network, before the big show itself starts two hours later at 7 PM ET/4 PM PT. Check back here immediately after the Styles/Nakamura match to read our views on just how well these two executed on the immense promise of this bout.
Previous Far Cry games have always sported a diverse roster of weapons, and Far Cry 5 is no different. With so many options available, you’re probably asking which weapons are worth purchasing. To help you out, we’ve highlighted in the video above nine weapons that we believe to be some of the best in the game.
It’s also worth noting that many of the weapons you see in the video above are Prestige Weapons, which are higher-priced special skinned versions of normal weapons you can purchase with in-game money or real money. If you’d prefer, you can purchase a standard non-skinned equivalent of the same weapon in the shop for cheaper and without the fancier attachments. Regardless of which version of each weapon you choose to get, we stand by their quality and functionality.
The best weapons in Far Cry 5 include the AR-CL semi-automatic rifle, the SA50 sniper rifle, and the M-79 grenade launcher. Each has their own special uses and functionality. Though, what you choose from our recommendations is also going to depend on your playstyle. After all, someone who specializes in stealth may not find it useful to use the RAT4 rocket launcher. Refer to the video above, as we also offer some tips on how to best use each weapon and which playstyle they’re more suited to.
Aside from the ones we mentioned above, the other best weapons in Far Cry 5 include:
