How Will be Switch 2 Performance Wise?

Star Wars Outlaws is quite a demanding game, hitting just 720p-1080p in performance mode on PS5/Series X, (and on Series S at 30fps) and 1134p-1620p in quality mode with dips.

It's one of those ports like say Kingdom Come Deliverance or Hogwarts Legacy on Switch 1 where on paper it looks like a bridge too far.

The footage shown here does look quite rough, but they have another 4 and a half months to polish and optimize it, so we'll see where we stand in September. As JRPGfan says, the game itself is lame so I won't be buying it either way, but it should be interesting from an academic perspective at least.

Yes with drops to 720p30 on a Series S it's going to be interesting to see what sacrifices they're making to get it to be playable on the Switch 2 undocked. Switch 2 docked is one thing, but handheld is going to be substantially below the Series S in power.

Maybe they have completely redone the lighting, because for the currently released versions of Outlaws raytracing is mandatory, if you unofficially force it off on PC you get no shadows or anything lol. Ray Tracing is the only lighting system in the game. I wouldn't really know from looking at that footage though, could just be RT on low.

Considering it's Ubisoft I wouldn't put it past them to show docked footage as if it was handheld in a teaser trailer like that lol.
