Shen’s Last Gift is by far the best bundled DLC, providing you with one of the finest XCOM 2 missions available and featuring an unlockable SPARK robot soldier class that I found to be invaluable for future missions. Most of the downloadable content is just made up of new weapons, gear and cosmetic customisations.
That’s a lot of content, especially when you consider how much replay value is on offer here. The XCOM 2 Collection is made up of the base game, four DLC packs (Resistance Warrior Pack, Anarchy’s Children, Alien Hunters, Shen’s Last Gift) and the War of the Chosen expansion. That said, to have such an acclaimed game on Nintendo’s portable is still cause for celebration for those who use the Switch as their sole gaming device. If you want to play XCOM 2, the Nintendo Switch is comfortably one of the worst platforms to experience it on.
While port expert Virtuos has done a terrific job getting XCOM 2 running on the Switch, not enough has been done to help the alien shooter’s transition to the small screen, with subtitles too small and important UI overlays often shunted out of view. The XCOM 2 Collection for Nintendo Switch also resurrects the question of how far developers should go when porting a game over to an alien platform. XCOM 2 is widely regarded as one of the very best PC games released within the last decade, so to see it arrive on the portable Nintendo Switch is quite the marvel.Ī number of compromises have been made to make this port possible though, with a shaky frame-rate performance reminding us of the Switch’s unfortunate hardware limitations.
