Version: 1.00 on cart, no further patches available. There are rumors of patches adding gyro control incoming but nothing at the moment.
Issues/Bugs Found:
- One crash when entering "Conscience" level, not reproducible after game restart
- Report based on "New Game" mode finished with a few "Firefight" maps tested too
- 30 fps target. There are no issues with hitting the target for majority of the game. There are two missions in particular later in the game that struggle with the framerate when there are dozen of enemies on the screen and everything shoots and explodes. The mission where the objective is to destroy a whole mansion with flamethrowers can particularly hitch when the geometry changes
- We once clipped through the stairs geometry when sliding. Not game breaking since the floor was below so it wasn't an out of the bounds clip
- When destroying laptops in one of the "Admin" levels, they can fly out of bounds and the mission can be softlocked. It's a quick mission with a small level so a restart is not painful but if you see a laptop flying out the window you better shoot it mid-air or just accept the restart
- Seems like the same quirk of the PS5 version is present in the Switch version - everything seems to be unlocked from the start - finishing the game or completing a firefight level notifies about unlocks, that were already unlocked. Weird, and a bit anti-climactic but not a major issue
- As mentioned above, there are rumors on the patch incoming with added gyro-aim support, but at the moment what's on cart is what's available
- For some reason "Toggle bullet time" option does not work for me. It should change the controls from "hold" to "toggle" behavior for bullet time but no amount of changing it and restarts help with it
- Sometimes options menu does not scroll to the end, leaving options controls half-visible. Not a major bug since toggling options or restarting the game fixes this glitch, and half-visible controls can still be interacted with
