Switch lovers rejoice, The Final Station is available to purchase as of today. We played it, and it’s just as good as it was on the PS4 and X1, but this version comes with the DLC The Only Traitor as well. If you didn’t have the opportunity to play this previously, it’s well worth checking out if you enjoy survival horror of the sidescrolling variety.
A sweet, succinct experience that gets a bit repetitive near the end, but well worth the travel expenses. The Final Station was something I didn’t expect to like as much as I did. Between the world building and the sporadic train gameplay, this is a train you don’t want leaving you at the station.

Here at GBG we use a rating method that you are more than likely familiar with – a scale of 1 to 10. For clarification, we intend on using the entire scale: 1-4 is something you should probably avoid paying for; 5-7 is something that is worth playing, but probably not at full price; 8-10 is a great title that you can feel confident about buying. If you have any questions or comments about how we rate a game, please let us know.
