Cyberpunk 2077 was impressive on Switch 2 but Ubisoft Red Lynx and Ubisoft Massive take things a step forward with a hugely impressive port of Star Wars Outlaws - a game based on an engine designed exclusively for current-gen hardware only. Hardware-accelerated RT, DLSS, high output resolutions, solid performance - this is the most impressive demonstration of Switch 2 technology we've yet seen. Oh, and it's a fantastic game too.
