Last month, we were impressed with the footage we saw in the pre-order trailer for the Nintendo Switch edition of Wreckfest, which releases on 21st June 2022. While it was all really decent looking, presented as being captured on the Nintendo Switch platform, none of the captured footage was direct gameplay.
However, on Friday (3rd June), THQ Nordic released a new Gameplay Trailer on their YouTube channel, showcasing a three lap crash-fest at Wrecknado. Real gameplay, no replays, just nearly two minutes of what you’ll get when you start up and finish a race on the handheld-hybrid gaming system.
While it’s nowhere near the same quality or depth you’d get on the PlayStation 5 or on a maxed-out PC, it’s still impressive none-the-less. It seems to run smoothly on the device, no noticeable frame drops or lag, even when getting completely used up 30 seconds in.
