With the digital version costing $15 and this retail copy going for $30, the extra pack-ins justify the increased cost, a far cry from the Resident Evil debacle. In addition, the physical edition includes an exclusive shotgun skin, a download code for the soundtrack (sorry CD lovers), a set of stickers, and a little papercraft cartoon bullet. Those who prefer their indie games on a cartridge will be pleased - the core game and included DLC packs don’t require any updates or downloads. However, it’s having another moment in the spotlight thanks to a physical edition, courtesy of a partnership with Nighthawk Interactive. Some of you might be wondering about the timeliness of this particular review - after all, Enter The Gungeon came out on the Nintendo Switch back in late 2017. Thankfully, Dodge Roll saw fit to include the ability to fully remap the game’s controls, so it won’t take long to find a setup which suits your preferences. You’ll have to use tilt controls to aim, which never feels as fluid or precise as you’d want it to. There’s the option to tackle the game in co-op (fair warning, it’s not unlocked right away), though I don’t recommend attempting this with single Joy-Con.

I mostly stuck with the game’s single-player, and while two Joy-Con work well enough in handheld mode, things really shine when using the Pro Controller. To be honest, there’s so much to tinker around with, I imagine only the most hardcore of fans will be put off by this recent development.Īs you’d expect, Enter The Gungeon‘s fast and tight action has translated well to the Nintendo Switch, though there’s nothing to suggest it wouldn’t. The development team has kept busy pumping out updates brimming with content (new guns, rooms, enemies, and weapon combo effects, known as Synergies), though a quick Google search informed me that their plans for paid DLC have been abandoned in favor of working on a brand new title. I last played Dodge Roll’s debut title back in 2016 (man, time sure does fly), and I was thrown off balance when I booted up the Switch version for the first time.
