“Whilst it’s clear that there has been a visual downgrade when compared to the PlayStation 5 version, there was still plenty of detail to be found in the environments and they brought with them a foreboding sense of presence that made them feel just as eerie to explore.” Still, there’s no doubting that the environments you explore look fantastic, with the same impressive lighting effects carrying over to the Nintendo Switch. Tormented Souls is never ugly, but some of the character faces do look… off. Of course, the game suffered from some sketchy character models and animations on the PlayStation 5 and that hasn’t changed here, so you shouldn’t expect perfection when it comes to the visuals. Tormented Souls is one of those games where you NEED to be able to make out small objects in the environment and I certainly didn’t have any struggles (outside of some of those that I already complained about in my PlayStation 5 review at least). It even looked slick when playing handheld, with the resolution holding up and ensuring you’re not left squinting and trying to make out little details in the environment. Whilst it’s clear that there has been a visual downgrade when compared to the PlayStation 5 version, there was still plenty of detail to be found in the environments and they brought with them a foreboding sense of presence that made them feel just as eerie to explore. The first thing that I noticed was that the game still looked pretty good. Instead, this review will focus on the performance on the platform and whether or not it still feels good to play.

Does it still hold up on Nintendo’s platform? Read on to find out. Now, eight months on from its initial release, it’s available on the Nintendo Switch, giving players the chance to embark on their eerie adventure through Winterlake Hospital on the go. My opinion of the game has only grown stronger since then, with an additional playthrough of the old-school horror romp proving equally enjoyable and quickly cementing it as one of my favourite titles of 2021. “ Tormented Souls is a fantastic love letter to the Resident Evil series that features excellent puzzles, great environmental design, and an intriguing narrative.” Tormented Souls is a game that I’ve already played on the PlayStation 5 and that I had a lot of praise for.
