It looked so good.

 

[Zedark]

Very nice! Visually it's one of the most beautiful games I've ever seen, and I had been wanting to play this, so very happy it's coming to Switch now. Never been a big 2d platformer fan, but I have liked some, so I hope I will like this one a lot, too!

Xbox has the Definitive Edition too, it just includes some new areas, difficulty levels and abilities. Also a fast travel system.
