She is attacked by the robot force Process led by a group called The Camerata, but the attempt fails and they leave behind Transistor, a greatsword-like weapon that has absorbed the man that was last killed with it.

During the game Red is hunted down by the group and gets to wield the sword that has its own personality and acts like a companion.

She explores the environment, fighting enemies with a battle system that combines both real-time elements as well as a turn-based planning phase called Turn().

The turn-based approach is only available during battles where a part of the environment is fenced off.

During the planning phase different actions can be selected, both movement and attacks, filling up an action bar near the top of the screen.

When done they are executed one after the other.

It takes some time before the bar is recharged, but meanwhile real-time movement and actions are still possible.

Destroyed processes often leave behind cells that need to be picked up or enemies respawn.

The areas usually have walls that can be used as cover.

Through the battles Red gains experience used to acquire Functions, powers from the Process.

These can be equipped as one of four techniques and can also be used to enhance existing techniques.

A large portion of the gameplay is based around experimenting with different configurations of Functions.

Skills are divided into active, passive and upgrade slots and most are unlocked by reaching new levels.

Any function can be used for each of the three types of slots.

The active slot is the main power and it can be enhanced with one or more functions in an upgrade slot.

Passive slots are separate and provide passive effects.

By switching and combining functions in active and upgrade slots, a specific fighting style can be created.

This is encouraged in the game through the inspect command where p

About Nintendo Switch

Released in 2017, the Nintendo Switch became one of the best-selling consoles of all time thanks to its hybrid handheld/docked design. Its cartridge-based physical format (as opposed to discs) has made complete-in-box collecting popular again, with certain limited print runs and Nintendo-published exclusives already commanding a premium on the secondhand market just a few years after release.

Gamevaro tracks Transistor [Collector's Edition] for Nintendo Switch with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.

Adding Transistor [Collector's Edition] to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically.
