Battlezone

Nintendo Life

Agreement—

It's taken a good six months for Battlezone Gold Edition to make its way to Nintendo Switch, but those months have been well worth it. The result is a port that uses the console's gyro controls to recreate the movement of a VR headset, and one that does so without making too many concessions in terms of overall performance. While it's still frustrating Switch owners have to wait so long for ports such as this, Battlezone Gold Edition could be the precedent that proves VR-orientated titles could lead a happy second life in semi-handheld form.

There are showier VR games out there, for sure, but this is a nice thing to return to once you've had your fill of gimmicks.

Agreement—

The arcade classic returns, bringing challenging, cooperative tank combat into modern virtual reality. The results are flawed but ultimately still fun.

Agreement—

Battlezone looks good and controls well, but offline there’s nothing to think about besides shoot, shoot, shoot, which in this case just doesn’t provide enough of a good time to be enjoyable for long.
