Title: Overcooked 2 drops for Switch 2 today and it makes full use of Camera Play Post by: HCK on November 07, 2025, 04:05:05 pm Overcooked 2 drops for Switch 2 today and it makes full use of Camera Play
<p>The Switch 2 edition of Overcooked 2 drops today, which is something we've known <a data-i13n="cpos:1;pos:1" href="https://www.engadget.com/gaming/nintendo/mario-metroid-virtual-boy-and-more-all-the-biggest-announcements-from-todays-nintendo-direct-165722897.html">was coming since September[/url]. Now it's here and ready to ruin relationships and friendships.</p> <p>The developer promises "enhanced graphics in-line with PC" and 4K 60 fps gameplay when docked. This should be a night-and-day graphical upgrade when compared to the <a data-i13n="cpos:2;pos:1" href="https://www.engadget.com/overcooked-2-switch-free-week-valentines-day-151552069.html">original Switch version[/url].</p> <span id="end-legacy-contents"></span><p>Perhaps the biggest news here is Camera Play integration. This is a feature exclusive to Nintendo's new console and it leverages a connected camera to throw up the faces of players under their avatars. Overcooked 2 is already a frantic experience, but now you'll be able to see the look on the faces of your friends as you royally screw up a burger order.</p> <div id="e60cc73d912e4ae1b9d617f9015716a3"><iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/ci9jNv_L3VE?si=3o9RUWnIU60WHolN" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></div> <p>It's worth noting that the Switch 2 doesn't come with a camera, but the company <a data-i13n="cpos:3;pos:1" href="https://www.engadget.com/gaming/nintendo/the-official-switch-2-accessories-include-a-camera-a-gamecube-controller-and-more-173912613.html">offers one as a standalone accessory[/url]. It also integrates with many USB-C cameras, including this <a data-i13n="cpos:4;pos:1" href="https://www.engadget.com/gaming/nintendo/horis-piranha-plant-switch-2-camera-is-a-work-of-art-194430377.html">Mario-themed work of art[/url].</p> <p>The Switch 2 version also works with Game Share, which lets people hop onto a multiplayer match without actually owning the game. Basically, the person who owns the game "shares" it with someone who doesn't.</p> <p>It's also cross-platform with the original Switch, which is neat given the massive user base. Upgrading seems like a simple affair, as DLC, save files and star ratings all carry over. This upgrade costs $10 and buying the game outright costs $30. However, there's a 20 percent discount for the first week.</p>This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/gaming/nintendo/overcooked-2-drops-for-switch-2-today-and-it-makes-full-use-of-camera-play-140021993.html?src=rss Source: Overcooked 2 drops for Switch 2 today and it makes full use of Camera Play (https://www.engadget.com/gaming/nintendo/overcooked-2-drops-for-switch-2-today-and-it-makes-full-use-of-camera-play-140021993.html?src=rss) |
