The lower resolution results in the game looking blurry in certain spots, but not to a problematic degree. Visually, there is a noticeable downgrade in both the docked and handheld modes. The turn-based nature of combat lends itself to short bursts of gameplay in handheld mode, though it's a difficult game to put down once you get started. The control scheme, as with that of the PS4 and Xbox One versions, works well here despite the lack of a traditional mouse-and-keyboard setup.
Larian's acclaimed RPG makes the transition to Switch intact (except for couch co-op, though online and local wireless play are available) with very little in the way of compromises.
Editor's note: The Nintendo Switch version of Divinity: Original Sin II Definitive Edition seems as if it shouldn't work on the hybrid console, and yet it does wonderfully.
