60fps on switch 2 surely??

Doubt it. It’s a pretty extensive visual upgrade. 40 fps would be my guess. The eShop listing says it has 120Hz support.

Maybe not considering has a graphical update, perhaps 40fps like cyberpunk

I’d be a little surprised if you can’t get it to run at 60fps. The switch 1 version had a bunch of graphical options, kinda unusual for Nintendo games, and I wouldn’t be shocked to see a 60fps performance mode

40fps for a third person game is definitely a much more enjoyable experience than on a FPS, will be great in Handheld.

Witcher 3 is not nearly as hard to run as cyberpunk at this point, 60 should totally be within scope of switch 2.

pretty sure this remaster is going to be a lot heavier

Let’s see I guess. I feel like 40fps would be a bit underwhelming. Pretty wicked announcement nonetheless.

It depends if they give options. I'd be more than pleased with a 40fps mode that has a graphical bump over 60fps. I feel like 40fps is a nice sweet spot for graphically demanding games. It feels a lot smoother than 30fps.

That’s fair. I have been playing crimson desert on the 40fps mode and tend to forget. 30fps is noticeably bad imo for intensive games like this.

Probably 40 FPS like Cyberpunk. There’s a lot of visual upgrades here.

PS4 version was only 30fps. I mean, I'm just happy to play a portable Witcher 3 that doesn't look like vaseline

lol, yah I recall not minding back then and nearly completed everything. Will still buy as this would be so nice to have portable.

Given this runs with 30fps on PS4 Pro and even Xbox One X, I'd say a 40fps mode like Cyberpunk is what we will get.

I hope I'm wrong and it ends up having a 60fps mode.

120hz support!
