NieR: Automata on Nintendo Switch. What changed after porting to the hybrid console?
Translated with AI from the Russian original.
Recently, to the surprise of many, NieR: Automata was released on Nintendo Switch, a console that rarely sees ports of flagship PS4 and Xbox One games.
Fortunately, NieR: Automata End of the YoRHa Edition turned out to be closer in quality to Doom Eternal or The Witcher 3 than to the atrocious ARK: Survival Evolved. The Digital Foundry team examined the handheld console version of the game, and it turned out that the NieR: Automata port by the developers at Virtuos truly meets high standards.
Apart from simplified details, lower-quality textures, some models swapped for low-poly versions, fewer environmental objects, simplified lighting, and particle effects, NieR: Automata on Nintendo Switch is a genuine showcase of the developers’ craftsmanship.
Notably, the game runs at 1080p on the Japanese console, which is higher than on Xbox One S, and delivers a stable 30 frames per second.
Digital Foundry specialists covered all of this in detail in their latest video.
