What’s even better is that it’s available via the Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Packsubscription ($50/year) and Xbox Game Pass($10/mo), so you don’t even have to buy it if you already pay for one of those services.
However, it should be noted that these appear to be two different versions of the game with some major differences. Particularly of note is that online multiplayer is exclusive to the Switch version; if you want to recreate all those college dorm room deathmatches with your homies who all live in different cities now, you can’t do that on Xbox.
