\"Outlaws<\/a> Image: Atari<\/p>\n

Don’t you just love it when a new announcement makes a previous announcement look even worse? Case in point, Square Enix confirmed today that Octopath Traveler 1<\/a> & 2<\/a> are coming to the Switch 2<\/a>, but no upgrades are being offered to current owners. Naff, indeed.<\/p>\n

Now, a new eShop listing reveals that Atari and Nightdive Studio’s Outlaws + Handful of Missions: Remaster<\/a> is also coming to the Switch 2, but this time, current owners on Switch can upgrade for free. Lovely stuff. Otherwise, you’re looking at \u00a324.99 \/ $29.99 if you’re a newcomer.<\/p>\n

As for what you’re getting with the Switch 2 version, the eShop listing details frame rates of up to 120fps along with improved resolution and support for 4K on compatible displays. Added support for Joy-Con 2 controllers is also mentioned, which presumably means that mouse mode has also been added, but we can’t say for definite.<\/p>\n

Of course, the Switch version’s gyro controls will also be present and correct, so if you prefer that option, you’re good to go.<\/p>\n

Let’s check out the official description:<\/p>\n

Saddle up and ride back into the Wild West with the gunslinging ex-Marshal, James Anderson, and face off against the good, the bad, and the even worse this side of the Mississippi as you work to uncover a twisted plot of greed and corruption. With your trusty six-shooting .45 Revolver, Scoped .44 Rifle, 10-Gauge Shotgun, and good ol’ Sawed-Off 12-Gauge Shotgun, you’ll be packin’ plenty of firepower to take out all manner of outlaw varmints.<\/p>\n

Outlaws + Handful of Missions features high-resolution, uncompressed cutscenes and updated visuals for weapons, characters, and enemies, all fully recreated from archived art and stylized to match the original look with full color palettes. Outlaws + Handful of Missions also offers Cross-Play Multiplayer with game modes including Deathmatch, Team Play, Capture the Flag, and Kill The Fool With The Chicken!<\/p>\n
