During the recent Nintendo Direct, Squanch Games announced that its first-person shooter High On Life is making its way on to the Switch on May 6. The announcement was made with a trailer, which you can check out below.
Having originally come out on more powerful home consoles, it should come as no surprise that High On Life on the Nintendo Switch will be getting a visual downgrade. As the trailer showcases the port, the downgrade doesn’t appear to be too bad, and the fast-paced gameplay is seemingly being left intact.
The sacrifices were seemingly made to the texture resolutions, with plenty of textures appearing much muddier than they do on the PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S versions of the game.
High On Life is a game that comes from the creator of Rick and Morty. The game puts players in the shoes of a high-school graduate that has no job. Things quickly take a turn, however, with an alien invasion that ends up with humanity getting kidnapped. Players have to team up with a variety of talking weapons in order to take down the alien threat.
The title was originally released on PC and Xbox. Since then, there have been plenty of updates and DLC releases for the shooter. 2023 also saw the game reaching new audiences thanks to a PS4 and PS5 release.
