The controls for Diablo 3 get a bit wonky once you throw another player into the mix. Sure, you lack the precision of a mouse, but the demon-slaying, loot-grabbing chaos that you want from Diablo is still butter-smooth. With the Switch Pro Controller, the game plays beautifully. Playing Diablo with a controller has always been a bit strange, but surprisingly playable, and the Switch offers a variety of controller and play styles. The Switch’s unique hardware creates a different kind of experience. The bad news is that, due to the handheld, on-the-go nature of the Switch, sometimes you won’t have access to the internet, walling you off from one of the game’s most enjoyable modes. Blizzard stuffed a whole lot of Diablo into the diminuitive Switch.

The great news about Diablo 3 on Switch is that it’s Diablo 3 on Switch it’s as good as you might hope. But after putting roughly a thousand hours into the PC version over the past six years - spread across dozens of characters - I was still excited to sit down with the Switch version and start all over again. I’ve spent more time than I can count joyfully taking out demons and collecting piles of loot while also listening to music or talking with friends.
