Voice talents range from Ray Chase (Final Fantasy XV, Noctis) and Kevan Brighting (Stanley Parable, Narrator) to Fryda Wolf (Mass Effect Andromeda, Sara Ryder). The game includes an amazing soundtrack from the industry legends Nobuo Uematsu and Kenji Ito, and our own brilliant composer Kalle Ylitalo.

The game runs beautifully 60 fps / 1080p in docked mode and equally impressively 60 fps / 720p in portable mode.

The game is based on the remastered PC version of Oceanhorn and you can play it in both portable and TV mode. Oceanhorn on Switch is probably the most definite version of the game. People have different expectations when it comes to big screen titles. We investigated a lot of this when we ported a portable game (iPhone, iPad) to the big screen for PC and consoles and it is not as simple as it sounds. Nintendo has nailed the screen size of the device, to diminish the disparity between the modes – making sure the same game works perfectly on both modes. The ability to go from portable mode to TV works flawlessly, and it all comes down to the genius design of the console. Nintendo Switch is an amazing video game console and when I first got my hands on it, I immediately fell in love with it. Oceanhorn 2: Knights of the Lost Realm is out now on iOS devices and Nintendo Switch.Today, Oceanhorn is being released on Nintendo Switch! But how about we let our ambition run a bit wilder next time? There's nothing more frustrating than a good game that could've been great.Ī gorgeous and stylish visual presentation coupled with an appropriately chilled out soundtrack makes sure Oceanhorn 2: Knights of the Lost Realm is always easy on the senses, and I can't deny the familiarity of its gameplay loop is quite comforting.

But their admittedly puzzling decision to follow the Zelda formula to a tee has left us with a series of games that are thoroughly enjoyable but far from special. The people are Cornfox are clearly extremely talented and both Oceanhorn titles have some intriguing narrative aspirations and a lot of quality. More than anything, I find Oceanhorn 2 is a game that is held back by its own lack of ambition. But the voice cast packs so much personality into these companions, it's hard for me not to root for them, even as they fail to help me with a boss battle five times in a row. This is doubly impressive when you realise that a majority of their dialogue is just perfunctory exposition dumps.
While I want to dismiss the friendly AI as little more than walking blocks for puzzle solving, they are elevated well above that by some truly stellar voice work. It's possible they're struggling with the controls, too. Every once in a while they will pull their weight and give you a glimpse of how good this stuff could be, but they mostly just bumble around swinging at nothing. Matters are further exacerbated but your partners' AI who have a habit of forgetting what they're doing right when you need them the most. The controls and the camera prove to be the toughest adversaries here because the enemies you find barely pose a threat. The moment you swing your sword, the camera is no longer locked which means you will often find yourself swinging at nothing. For one thing it doesn't let you lock on to enemies unless you have your shield up (surely a holdover from the simple controls of the mobile version). It's a good thing the puzzles make up a majority of the experience, because the combat is just not very good.

Many of the puzzles require you to use the full extent of your inventory in some clever ways I'd rather not spoil. Since it's a 3D Zelda-like, obviously you're given a grappling hook in addition to the usual assortment of melee weapons, ranged weapons, and bombs. While you're still mostly exploring a map, solving puzzles and finding secrets and treasures, everything is just slightly deeper and more engaging. But what adventuring it is! Oceanhorn 2 improves and expands the gameplay from the first in some fun ways. The narrative, while enjoyable, serves little purpose than to set the tone and provide some context for your adventuring. One thing leads to another and soon enough you find yourself on a quest to find three magical items to stop the evil big bad. The game begins as the hero and his father are enjoying their peaceful island life before a mysterious plane pursued by robots crashes near them.
Despite the number in the title, Oceanhorn 2 is a prequel to the first game, placing players in the shoes of a newly knighted hero.
