Nice! What's the file size?

18.8gb

For the whole game or just the single player? Single player file size is 40GB on PC and the last gen consoles. Multiplayer was a separate 38GB download. 

Side Note: It's going to be weird calling the PS4/XB1 last gen for a little while.



Felt like an eternity to get the release date...
And after all thoses months of patiently waiting, I got punished for it with a digital only release.



Nintendo Switch:

... announced as a Home Console

... advertised as a Hybrid

... delivered as a Portable

curl-6 should be happy now.

Happy is an understatement; I literally just got up after a terrible night's sleep but I feel like pure euphoria.

I have been waiting nearly two and a half years for this bad boy, often fearing it was gonna be canned, and now it's just seven days away. Besides Monster Hunter, I have not been this hyped for a game since Mario Odyssey back in 2017.

Bring it on!

If it were physical, I would have bought it. But since digital is the only option, I already have it on gamepass.



Nintendo Switch Friend Code: SW-5643-2927-1984

Animal Crossing NH Dream Address: DA-1078-9916-3261

Took them long enough. I hope the port's optimization was worth the wait.



You know it deserves the GOTY.

I think there's at least a decent chance this is the last new triple A third party western game the Switch gets that isn't cloud based and if that ends up being the case it's certainly a good one to end on.

It looks like a really good port too.

Is it confirmed though if a Switch version would even have MP? Not a big deal actually because Doom Eternal's MP mode is not worth playing tbh. I would even see it as a positive as the game will take less space as a result.
