FF7 Remake on Switch 2 Lacks Performance Mode but Runs Smoothly at 30fps

Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade has launched on Nintendo Switch 2, offering a locked 30 frames per second experience without a performance mode. The game runs at a consistent 1080p when docked, and while handheld mode also outputs at 1080p, Digital Foundry suggests it may be upscaled from 720p using DLSS technology.

Despite the absence of a 60fps option, the frame rate remains highly stable throughout, with excellent frame pacing that ensures smooth gameplay even during intense combat sequences. The game's performance is a testament to the optimisation work done by Square Enix for the Switch 2 hardware.

Players seeking higher resolutions and 60fps will still need to turn to PlayStation 5 or PC versions. However, the portability of the Switch 2 version offers a compelling trade-off for many gamers, allowing them to enjoy the critically acclaimed RPG on the go.
