Dispatch, a superhero adventure game known for its adult themes and humor, is coming to the Nintendo Switch and Switch 2. However, players on these platforms will encounter some differences compared to the PC and PS5 versions. The game's "Visual Censorship" setting, which allowed players to choose whether to see explicit content, has been removed. On Switch, this setting is always on, and there's no way to turn it off. This means that certain visuals, like nudity or offensive gestures, will be covered by black bars. Despite the censorship, all scenes from the game's eight episodes are still present. The black bars cover the usual explicit content, but they also censor some unexpected things, like middle fingers. The game's profanity toggle is still there, so players can choose to hear swearing. However, one scene in episode four has been edited more drastically. In the original version, this scene was full of moans, groans, and swearing. But in the Switch version, it's completely silent, even with profanity enabled.
This isn't the first time Nintendo has censored content on its platforms. From the '90s Mortal Kombat gore removal to more recent examples like Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE Encore, Nintendo has a history of cleaning up content for its consoles. However, there are exceptions, like Cyberpunk 2077's detailed character customization. The black bars didn't hinder the overall enjoyment of the game. Dispatch is a superhero drama that pulls players in with its sexy characters and funny one-liners. The ever-changing arcs keep players hooked until the end.
