Warhammer 40,000 Rogue Trader has finally arrived on Nintendo Switch 2 - but the state of this port is rough. In this performance review, we take a look at how the game runs across visuals, frame rate, stability, handheld play, and overall optimisation.
This isn’t a full review of Rogue Trader itself - the game is excellent elsewhere. Today we’re looking purely at the Switch 2 version, and whether it’s worth your money at launch. From stutters and crashes to resolution issues and sluggish menus, here’s the full technical breakdown.
If you’re new here, I cover all things Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 daily, so consider subscribing.
Explore the Koronus Expanse.
Begin your adventure aboard your personal, giant voidship, traveling between the multitude of systems within the Koronus Expanse, a barely charted and incredibly perilous region of space. Despite being considered a backwater of the Imperium, this region encompasses an enormous stretch of the void, filled with dangerous creatures and prodigious opportunities for profit and exploration.
Your decisions matter, Lord-Captain.
During quests show your subjects mercy or disdain, stay faithful to the God-Emperor, or consort with enemies of Mankind - your every decision and every act, even in character creation, is changing the in-game open world and those who inhabit it.
Gather your crew.
Rogue Traders never travel alone. Gather your retinue of righteous heroes, twisted psykers, and perfidious xenos. All of them are ready to follow you into the darkness between the stars. They will offer you counsel, aid you in battle, and allow you to amass ever more power. In return, you can guide them through their own personal journeys, changing their destinies forever.
Plan your actions carefully.
Slaughter the enemies of Mankind in a fully-fledged isometric turn-based tactical combat. Take advantage of cover, the environment, and careful positioning to overpower your enemies. When that is not enough - use your companion`s powerful abilities to turn the tide of battle and achieve victory even in the direst of situations. Our video game adaption of the classic Rogue Trader ruleset allows an enormous number of possibilities for you to explore.
