An impressive amount of effort. Elden Ring is an astonishing video game, but it’s not on Switch – at least not yet, anyway (or perhaps ever – it’s one seriously ambitious understanding from a technical perspective and it breaks our heart to admit it might never be possible on Nintendo’s hybrid console).
