Personally the only thing I was really interested in was Hyrule Warriors, but we already knew about it. I was disappointed they didn't have a release date yet, which makes me think this'll be released in 2026.
I could be interested in Star Wars Outlaws if they weren't releasing it as a game-key card. Expecting Ubisoft to complain again after it doesn't sell that well on Switch 2 either (release the full game on a cartridge!).
Yeah I also like the Hyrule Warriors' take on musou games but I felt kind of burned by Age of Calamity's dreadful performance. I ended up not playing that much of it.
Is there any indication that there will be a performance patch for Age of Calamity on Switch 2 ?
I don't know if a patch is planned, but I played it on my Switch 2 and there's a massive difference in performance. Particularly the stages where you drive the divine beasts. On Switch they drop down to like 15 fps or something, on Switch 2 it's super smooth and feels like a completely different game. Here's a video.
It'd be nice to get a patch for extra FPS and more enemies on screen for the Switch 2 though!
Barely stable 30fps is not smooth as far as I am concerned. The original HW got its 60fps patch, so I'll keep waiting for the same on AoC. And in the meantime I'll steer clear of AoI.
