When playing in handheld, it can also be a struggle to see what’s ahead sometimes, almost because of how good the shadows are. This does come at the cost of long loading times, however.
It runs smoothly and looks great, with some excellent lighting and shadows. Visually, whether playing in handheld or docked mode, WRC 8 is still very impressive on the Switch. Once you do finally get to grips with your car (assuming you can) it’s still a good representation of the WRC. You can still mess around with deadzone and saturation settings, but the best I managed was a feeling of just about being in control of my car. WRC 8 does offer some control settings to help, but as sensitivity is set to -10 (the lowest setting) by default, it’s obvious this problem was known.

As a result, correcting slides and straightening up out of corners often ends in spins or crashes because the sticks can barely tell the difference between half- and full-tilt.Įven the Pro Controller doesn’t help, as it suffers from similar sensitivity issues. I mean, the Switch is known for its overly sensitive Joy Con sticks, but it feels like developer KT Racing didn’t really adjust the handling to account for this problem. The problem with this port is not its content or presentation, but in its handling.
Either of which can be chosen as your starting point in career. The WRC 2 and WRC Junior categories are well represented, too.

The content is all there, from the deep and involving career mode, to the official drivers and teams from the World Rally Championship. The same cannot wholly be said of the Nintendo Switch version, though. Its handling was excellent and responsive, it was filled to the brim with licensed content and looked great to boot. When it released two months ago on PS4, Xbox One and PC, WRC 8 did a stellar job of recreating the feeling of speeding through the woods and sliding around on the snow and ice of Sweden’s stages. Seriously though, it boggles the mind how fast World Rally Championship drivers barrel down the narrowest of narrow dirt roads, throwing their cars around like their lives aren’t in the balance during every second of every run. It’s basically the entire premise of rally driving. It’s just a fact that you’ll have to accept.
