So I decided to catalog the relatively demanding multiplatform games released so far and how they compare on PS4 vs. Switch 2 vs. Series S. Half of the games in this set (4 out of 8) had higher framerates on Switch 2 than PS4 and 6 of them had higher max resolutions. The Series S was 8/8 and 6/8 respectively. Of course this isn't looking at graphics quality, and effective image quality (which the Switch 2 is advantaged with giving DLSS often has an advantage compared to TAA/FSR 2 at 1080p, with trade offs of course.) | Game | Switch 2 (Docked) – Resolution | Switch 2 (Docked) – Framerate | PS4 – Resolution | PS4 – Framerate | Series S – Resolution | Series S – Framerate | S2 vs PS4 (Res) | S2 vs PS4 (FPS) | Series S vs PS4 (Res) | Series S vs PS4 (FPS) | Series S vs S2 (Res) | Series S vs S2 (FPS) | | Apex Legends | 1080p | Nearly-solid 60fps | Variable 720–1080p | Variable 45–60fps (avg ~50) | 1080p | 60fps (120fps mode available) | + | + | + | + | = | + | | Hogwarts Legacy | 720p → 1080p (DLSS) | 30fps | 864p | 30fps | 1080p (Fidelity) / 900p (Perf) | 30fps (Fidelity), 60fps (Perf) | + | = | + | + | + | + | | Civilization VII | 4K (Quality) / 1080p (Perf) | 30fps (Quality), 60fps (Perf) | 1080p | 30fps | Variable 1080p–1440p | 60fps | + | + | + | + | - | = | | Cyberpunk 2077 | 720–1080p (Quality) / 540–1080p (Perf) | 30fps (Quality), 30–40fps (Perf) | 720–900p | 30fps | 1080–1440p (Quality) / 720–1080p (Perf) | 30fps (Quality), 60fps (Perf) | + | = | + | + | + | + | | Fortnite | 2176×1224 | Stable 60fps | 900–1080p | 60fps (with significant drops) | 1440p (60 mode) / ~1200p avg (120 mode) | 60fps (Performance), 120fps (Ultra Perf) | + | + | + | + | + | + | | Hitman 3 | 1080p | 40–60fps | 1080p | 40–60fps | 1080p | 60fps | = | = | = | + | = | + | | No Man's Sky | 1080p (Perf) / 1440p (Quality) | 45–60fps (Perf), 30fps (Quality) | 1080p | 30fps | 1440p (dynamic Perf) / 1440p (Quality) | 60fps (Perf), 30fps (Quality) | + | + | + | + | + | + | | Street Fighter 6 | 540p native → 1080p via DLSS (1v1 fights) | 60fps (1v1); WT 30–60, 30 in WT battles | 1080p | 60fps (1v1); WT battles 30fps | 1080p | 60fps (all main modes) | = | = | = | + | = | + | |
Nice summary; one thing though, Hitman is 1152p as per DF, with DLSS on top of that, so significantly above PS4. Also just a heads up, Redkong is an alt account so there's no point in engaging with him, he is purely here to downplay and concern troll. |
Hitman on the S2 also hits low 20 fps in certain areas. So far the S2 seems to struggle maintaining stable fps. Hitman also has low resolution background NPCs.
