LA Noire gets re-release for PS4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch
LA Noire was one of the bigger blockbuster titles in the previous generation, offering eerily realistic facial expressions and a great 1940s take on Los Angeles.
The development hell was well-documented though, while the interrogation scenes were criticised by more than a few reviewers. But the game still seems like a ball, so colour us surprised to hear that LA Noire is coming to PS4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch (!).
The news was announced by Rockstar Games and also includes word of a VR title, featuring seven cases from the original game.
“We’re taking our first steps into virtual reality with LA Noire: The VR Case Files, featuring select cases from the original game rebuilt specifically for a virtual reality experience on the HTC Vive,” Rockstar Games wrote on its website.
The publisher has detailed the improvements for the Switch version as well.
LA Noire is making an appearance on all current generation consoles, Rockstar announced
“LA Noire for the Nintendo Switch features the complete original game and all additional downloadable content, with specific enhancements including a Joy-Con mode with gyroscopic, gesture-based controls, HD rumble and new wide and over-the-shoulder camera angles, plus contextual touch screen controls for portable detective work.”
It’s unclear whether the touch screen controls will be disabled when playing in docked mode, however.
What about specific improvements to the PS4 and Xbox One version?
“LA Noire for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One delivers the complete original game and all additional downloadable content with a range of technical enhancements for greater visual fidelity and authenticity, including enhanced lighting and clouds, new cinematic camera angles, high resolution textures and more,” Rockstar wrote. “Plays (sic) natively in 1080p for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One consoles, and stunning 4K for PlayStation 4 Pro and Xbox One X, these versions capture the grit and grime of the City of Angels like never before.
