Star Wars Outlaws on Switch 2: Conflicting Reports Leave Players Concerned

The question of how Star Wars Outlaws performs on Nintendo’s upcoming Switch 2 remains unanswered, with mixed reports fueling uncertainty.

Concerns first emerged after Gamescom, where some sources claimed the game ran poorly on the new console. As a major Triple-A release available only on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC — with no last-gen versions to fall back on — worries quickly spread that weak performance on Switch 2 could signal trouble for future current-gen ports.

The situation grew even murkier when, just days later, someone claiming early access uploaded footage that appeared relatively stable, contradicting earlier negative impressions.

For now, the only way to truly settle the debate is through firsthand testing. Ubisoft has been contacted for Switch 2 review code of Star Wars Outlaws, which may finally provide clarity on the matter.
