I am confused. Currently I play Pinball FX 3 on Switch and now I can downgrade to FX? It seems a new engine. I am confused with the naming at Zen.
It's not a downgrade, it's definitely an upgrade. Still, I would be hard pressed to buy it again on Switch if I were you. I mean you already have PBFX3 on it. I'm not sure if newer tables will release on that format though. I'm shocked that PS4 and Xbox One was left out, yet it's getting released on Switch.
Love Zen Pinball! Those are my guys over there. Definitely supporting them. Even though this time, transferring your tables isn't a thing anymore. You'll have to pay this time due to them completely revamping every single table with the new Unreal 5 engine. Seems interesting.
