Earthlings, prepare your DNA for harvesting all over again—but this time, it’s happening in glorious high definition on the go.
THQ Nordic and Black Forest Games have officially launched the cult-classic alien invasion simulator, Destroy All Humans!, on the Nintendo Switch 2. Crypto-137 is touching down on Nintendo’s newest hardware, bringing his signature blend of sci-fi cynicism, telekinetic chaos, and anal probes to a whole new generation of portable gaming.
Check out what this upgraded version brings to the table below.
A Next-Gen Makeover for a Cult Classic
While Crypto’s hatred for humanity remains exactly the same, the world he’s trying to conquer has received a massive technological facelift. Thanks to the beefed-up architecture of the Nintendo Switch 2, this isn’t just a simple port; it’s a heavily optimised upgrade that makes the 1950s look better than ever.
Here is what you can expect when you boot up the game on the new console:
- Crisper Resolutions: Say goodbye to the blurry textures of yesteryear. The game now supports Full HD and scales all the way up to 1440p resolution, offering sharp, crisp visuals whether you are playing docked on your TV or using handheld mode.
- Denser Environments: Earth feels a lot more alive—and crowded. The environments are now packed with denser assets, giving cities, military bases, and farmsteads a much richer, lived-in depth. More humans mean more chaos!
- Improved Shaders & Lighting: The game utilises the Switch 2’s advanced hardware to implement vastly improved shaders. This gives the game’s unique, stylised aesthetic a modern pop, with better reflections, dramatic lighting, and realistic weapon effects.
- Bonus Content Included: To sweeten the deal, the release comes packaged with the Skin Pack DLC, letting you customise Crypto in an array of ridiculous outfits as you vaporise pathetic humans.
Upgrade Tip: If you already owned the original digital version on the first Nintendo Switch, check the eShop! There is a $9.99 upgrade path available to unlock the enhanced Switch 2 edition without paying full price.
Take Over the Earth, Anywhere
Whether you are using your Disintegrator Ray to melt secret agents, tossing tanks with psychokinesis, or flying around in your saucer to level entire cities, Destroy All Humans! remains an absolute blast. Having these high-end graphical improvements running natively on a portable Nintendo system shows exactly what the Switch 2 is capable of delivering.
