Nier Automata on PS4 compared to the Nintendo Switch version
Translated with AI from the Russian original.
The Nintendo Switch is considered an underpowered console, but the Nier Automata port can be called a benchmark in every respect, starting with its 1080p resolution.
On the Nintendo Switch, the game runs at 1080p resolution, while on the PS4, the resolution is 900p. However, on the hybrid console, Nier Automata runs at 30 FPS, whereas on the Sony console, it runs at 60 FPS.
Among other changes are lower quality of vegetation, shadows, and textures. Despite this, the game looks quite decent. The frame rate holds at a stable 30 FPS during most battles, whereas on the base PS4, it is unstable, hovering around 50–60 FPS.
The draw distance has been reduced along with level-of-detail settings—meaning distant objects will pop in as the player moves through the world. But the changes are not radical and do not ruin the gameplay experience. In addition, compared to the PS4, loading times on the Nintendo Switch are slightly longer.
Nier Automata: The End of Yorha Edition will be released on Nintendo Switch on October 6, 2022.
