Digital Foundry’s technical analysis of Street Fighter 6 showed that the Nintendo Switch 2 is capable of delivering impressive image quality — even compared to the Xbox Series S. It is all thanks to DLSS and competent optimization.
In docked mode, the game runs at a base resolution of 540p, but DLSS scales the image up to 1080p. Despite some isolated artifacts — like shimmering or “jaggies” — the final picture turned out sharper and more stable than on the Series S, which uses CAPCOM’s proprietary upscaler. According to specialists, the latter fares worse with noise and sharpness.
The Switch 2 version also features higher-quality textures. Nintendo’s new console provides developers with around 9 GB of RAM, whereas the Series S has around 8 GB available. This gives the Switch a small but noticeable advantage in resource allocation.
In handheld mode, the resolution drops to 360p with an upscale to 720p, and graphical settings are dialed back further. However, the stability of 60 frames per second is maintained, and the final visual quality remains comparable to PlayStation 4.
All of this demonstrates that with proper optimization, the Switch 2 is capable of delivering a solid gaming experience — in a smaller form factor compared to its rivals.
