Smaller, lighter, longer-lasting – can Switch’s new model deliver joy without Joy-Cons?

Nintendo has never held much truck with convention, but it’s still surprising to witness a hardware announcement accompanied by a trailer illustrating what it can’t do. So it was with the debut of the Switch Lite, a more compact, lightweight revision dedicated to handheld play – and which, as demonstrated by Yoshiaki Koizumi, fits within the inside pocket of a suit jacket. It will come in at $100 cheaper than its older sibling, thanks to a host of costcutting changes. There’s no dock or HDMI cable, since Switch Lite won’t connect to your TV. Controls are integrated, so no more Joy-Cons – which in turn means no IR Camera. You can say goodbye to HD Rumble, too, while the absence of a kickstand rules out tabletop mode. Here, in other words, is a Switch that no longer lives up to its name.

René Rother’s acrid revenge thriller – an action game with its limbs broken and forcibly rearranged into the shape of a spatial puzzler – is at once a bonafide original and an unlikely throwback. Cast your eyes right and you wouldn’t blink if we told you this was a forgotten Grasshopper Manufacture game from the early PS3 era (we won’t be at all surprised if this finds a spot on Suda51’s end-of-year list).

Dragon's Dogma 2
The road from Vernworth to Bakbattahl is scenic but arduous. Ignore the dawdling mobs of goblins, and duck beneath the chanting harpies that circle on the currents overhead, and even moving at a hurried clip it is impossible for a party of four to complete the journey by nightfall.
