Trials Rising isn’t a perfect Switch port, but it’s very playable

When Ubisoft announced that Trials Rising was coming to the Nintendo Switch, I didn’t get my hopes up. It might seem like an ideal fit for Nintendo’s hybrid home/handheld console, but I could spot some potential problems that could ruin the entire experience.

Trials Rising always felt like a Switch game that would get delayed and then later cancelled. But now that its release date is upon us, the Switch version sure does seem real. Ubisoft even released an open beta that ran over the weekend. And now that I’m playing the Switch version (along with the PC release), I have to admit that it’s really coming out.
