Knights of the Old Republic II for the Nintendo Switch is a fantastic time. Aspyr does a great job, just as they did with the KOTOR port in 2021, and the experience of the story far outweighs the inconvenience that stems from the glitches.

Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords had a tough act to follow, but does an admirable job of creating the next chapter in the Old Republic. As a sequel it fails to surpass the high standard set by the original, but it’s still a great game and a must play for Star Wars fans. The story is one of the stronger ones in the Star Wars universe and the ability to mold it through player choices is the main attraction in KOTOR II. The dated mechanics and graphics benefit a lot from nostalgia goggles, but it holds up well enough where newcomers can still enjoy it and find it a worthwhile adventure.

Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords is a fairly weak port of a flawed classic. The core characters and writing are still among the best in the entire franchise, but the gameplay is rapidly showing its age, and many of the flaws from the original release are still present. Fans of the franchise who may have skipped this particular entry should absolutely give it a shot, but for longtime fans, the Restored Content DLC is going to be the real game-changer.

Knights of the Old Republic 2 is a great and beloved game, and its gameplay, mechanics, and systems all translate well to the Switch. It’s great when it works, but the frustrating problem is getting it to work.

To put it simply, this is the greatest story ever told in the Star Wars universe. Also it has the best written character in Star Wars history.To put it simply, this is the greatest story ever told in the Star Wars universe. Also it has the best written character in Star Wars history. While the gameplay might not hold up to modern standards, the dialogue, atmosphere, and storytelling are beyond anything we see nowadays. Do yourself a favor and play this on a device that has access to the Restored Content mod.
Every time I replay this game I learn something new, and I've played through the game at least 30 times now. Hands down my favorite game of all time… Expand1 of 1 users found this helpful

The best Star Wars game/story and it's disappointing that this is a poorly done port. Luckily the cut content will be added.

Was a good game until I got stuck with constant crashes on Onderon. 50 hours down the drain I guess. Broken port. Crashes regularly aboutWas a good game until I got stuck with constant crashes on Onderon. 50 hours down the drain I guess. Broken port. Crashes regularly about every 6-8 hours on a loading screen. Some dialog randomly skips ahead or has no volume. Sometimes the action button will be on attack, but pressing A will make you unequip your weapon mid combat. How did anyone finish this version? Clearly rushed and unpolished like most games today.… Expand

Game currently crashes about half way through. Developers knew and released anyway. Good reviews sadly must not have gotten far enough. Unplayable.

I registered just to say please read articles about this game before purchasing it. It is currently unbeatable with no ETA from the developer of a fix. Releasing a game in this status is unacceptable. It should have been caught in QA and should be taken off the store until it is fixed.
