Velocity 2X (2014)

Velocity 2X is a very fast-paced game that can be both accessible for newcomers and challenging for veterans, in an effort that features non-linear levels and very well designed mechanics that include shooter and platformer elements. A solid experience and which will get its players involved with all its components is what Velocity 2X brings to the Nintendo Switch catalogue.

Velocity 2X has online leaderboards to keep players coming back for more, and with the inclusion of all previously released DLC as part of this Switch iteration of the game, this represents the most complete version of the title to date. It’s not an especially long experience, but length isn’t always the objective of a given game, nor is it always an indicator of quality. Velocity 2X is a delightful addition to the eShop exactly as is.

While Velocity 2X deserves merit for blending two different forms of gameplay into one hefty treat, 2X quickly becomes bland after the course of only a few minutes.

Velocity 2X is a marvellous, quick paced experience with plenty of re-playability, that definitely finds its home on the Nintendo Switch. If you've never experienced Velocity 2X before then you are in for a treat. Get it in your (solar) system, now.

Velocity 2X is a truly characteristic video game capable of hosting two distinct gameplays in the same game formula. The challenge proposed by the developers is incredibly difficult, in fact users must necessarily have a pinch of patience to challenge all the spaceships with the Qwarp Jet and kill all the enemies impersonating the beautiful protagonist. The graphic sector, finally, highlights this small masterpiece and the soundtrack manages to satisfy the most demanding.
