The best portable experience of one of the best games ever!

We already know that the Witcher 3 is one of the greatest action RPGs out there. It’s been on every console and every time it shows off just how beautifully created its world is. 

This review is about the experience on the Switch, which by most accounts is a relatively weaker console. 

When it comes to graphics, this was definitely a downgrade. If you came into it from the PC experience, it can be extremely jarring. There’s no wispy Geralt and no foliage as far as the eyes can see. 

On the other hand, everything else goes so smoothly. The combat is as fluid as ever and you can gallop around the vast open world with only a few frame drops here and there.

What makes this Switch edition even more worth the investment is that it’s Cloud Save enabled. For those who already have the Witcher on the Steam of GOG accounts, you can easily import your save files onto the Switch. That means you can bring around the Witcher experience wherever you go. Plus, when you’re done going portable, you can save your progress to the Cloud for the next time you need adventuring on the PC.

I’ve had the PC copy for a while and I’ve had some progress, but it’s easy to forget when you have to get to a desk and turn things on every time. The fact that I can play it wherever I am, even in bed, has made exploring the Witcher universe even more accessible. 

Who knows, I might finally get to finishing it!
