It’s probably sacrilege to say (especially considering what a mess Ubisoft is as a company), but I think it’s even better than Metroid Dread. They really took every lesson from the best games in the genre to make something great. Biggest surprise of the year for me so far.

Have you played it on Switch? I'm wondering what the best version is to play. Annoyingly on PC it's only available via Epic games store...

I played it on the PS5 but I’ve seen performance comparisons. The Switch version runs at 60 FPS and the game was apparently built with that platform in mind, so it definitely seems like a safe bet! I’ve been burned by split-platform releases having a terrible Switch version before, but this one seems basically as good as any other version where it counts.
