1001 Threads of Mizan Takes You and Up to 2 Friends on a Narrative-Driven Magic Carpet Ride | IGN Preview
While I can definitely see it working well solo, playing with two other players in real time is where 1001 Threads of Mizan really shines. There were no multiplayer quick time events or big flashy mid...

This was super fun to make. The Switch 2 version of Resident Evil Requiem is pretty outstanding when compared to the same game running on a PC at Max settings. Switch 2 just gets better and better.
Check out how Resident Evil Requiem looks running on a docked Switch 2 vs a PC with the settings cranked all the way up: https://bit.ly/4tUSXe2
