The first gameplay of 'Star Wars Outlaws' on Switch 2 has been leaked

There are only a few days left until the launch of Star Wars Outlaws on the new Nintendo Switch 2. However, extensive gameplay has already been leaked, showing Ubisoft's game on the console.

The video offers a first real look at the title's performance on Nintendo's hybrid Nintendo, ahead of its official arrival this September 4.

A real look at the Switch 2 version

The footage was published by a YouTuber and, according to reports, comes from a copy obtained early in stores. This wouldn't be the first time something similar has happened with major releases.

So far, the only things shown were fragments in a Nintendo Direct and in Ubisoft's official videos, without too many technical details about resolution or stability.

The first tests spark debate

During the last PAX, some outlets such as GVG were able to test the Switch 2 version behind closed doors and had expressed doubts about the performance. However, the new leaked gameplay suggests that optimization might be better than expected.

Even so, sacrifices can be seen in aspects such as:

• Resolution and image sharpness
• Lighting and visual effects
• Texture quality and level of detail

It will be necessary to wait for more exhaustive graphical comparisons to determine whether this is a good port.
