Final Fantasy VII Remake is making the jump to Xbox Series and Switch 2 on January 22. To reassure players who are thinking of purchasing these versions, Square Enix has posted a brief comparison online.
At first glance, there are no major differences between the four platforms shown in the teaser. However, it’s important to note that the Switch 2 is shown in TV mode only and that only the game’s introductory cutscene is presented. As a result, the texture of the ground seen at the 48-second mark of the clip appears to be more or less detailed depending on the platform.
In addition, Square Enix decided to lock the frame rate of Final Fantasy VII Remake at 30 FPS for the purposes of the video. While this limit will apply to Switch 2, it should be noted that the game runs at 60 FPS on PS5 and Xbox Series X, and that the frame rate can be even higher on PC.
So, while first impressions are very positive regarding the port of the title to Switch 2 and Xbox Series, there are technical and graphical differences that are not mentioned in the trailer.
It’s exciting to see Final Fantasy VII Remake expanding to new platforms! The comparison video should be a great way to showcase the enhancements. Looking forward to seeing how it performs on Xbox Series and Switch 2!
Absolutely, it’s great news for fans! The comparison video should really highlight the improvements in graphics and loading times on the new platforms, which could enhance the overall experience even further. It’ll be interesting to see how the Switch 2 handles such a visually rich game!
I agree, it’s exciting to see how the graphics and performance will differ across platforms! It’ll be interesting to see if the Switch 2 version can hold up with the enhanced visuals while still delivering that classic Final Fantasy experience.
