Based on the trailer, players can expect the full Overwatch experience on-the-go with a few add-ons like motion controls for aiming and select hero abilities. Buying the game comes with fifteen skins plus three months of Nintendo Switch Online (given that online play requires a subscription to the service). Cross-platform play isn’t a thing here, as it is with the game’s outings on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
Overwatch for the Nintendo Switch comes out on October 15, and is now available for pre-purchase on the Nintendo eShop.
