Are you sure about the 8GB VRAM utilization? I haven't played the game myself, but see many posts like this one. Particularly the world tour mode is where things bog down (which would likely affect other modes too.)

We also need to remember that the PC version has system ram as an intermediate stage in the memory hierarchy, and the Series S only has 8 GB total for all GPU or CPU game-relevant workloads. System ram isn't fast, but it's much faster than swapping from 2.4 GiB/s storage. 

Yeah, watched quite a few videos with metrics, especially on hardware that is in XSS rank...in fights with everything on highest it rarely comes anywhere near close 8GB. While roaming I saw it going to 9-10GB.

Looking at the game running on a Steam Deck OLED it looks like it's using about 12GB of shared memory on average.

Assuming Steam OS is consuming about 2-3GB of that, that is putting it above the Series S's 8GB capacity for games.
