NieR: AutomataSwitch is 720p in portable mode

We have confirmation ofNieR: AutomataSwitchspecs and things are looking good!

Announced very plainly on Twitterthanks to theNieRJapan account, Square Enix states that the resolution for docked/TV mode is 1920x1080p, with concessions for 1280x720p in tabletop/portable mode. They also clearly state the framerate: 30FPS. Well, that’s pretty cut and dried!

NieR Automata Switch resolution and framerate

This is important to note, as the account is tweeting out new details in regards to the Switch port of the game, following the reveal in the Nintendo Direct Mini. Some folks were noting that the Square Enix site stated a “60 FPS” framerate, but that figure seems to be copied and pasted from theYorha Editionspecs on other platforms. We’ve reached out for clarification on the matter, but until then we’re confident that 30 FPS is the target for Switch.

As a reminder,NieR Automatais out on October 6 on the Switch platform. Thankfully, it willnotbe a cloud-based nonsense release!Take thatKingdom Hearts. While the jury is out on how stable the game actually is in the end, it looks like Square Enix is perfectly capable of putting out non-cloud ports. Hopefully this is a sign of things to come for the Switch and not an outlier.
