Rebirth is gonna be an interesting case as a quite lavish current-gen-only release.

Hopefully Square give it the Dragon Quest 11 S treatment and carefully rework it to still look and run decently on portable hardware, instead of just hacking away at resolution and settings.

Wasn't the "DQXI S treatment" pretty much a death wish for Iwata? I don't think they will bother to make a custom made version of Rebirth for the Switch 2 just because.

Correct, and DQ11 isn't so much of a port as it is a remake and came out 2 years later. It utilizes different assets and a newer version of UE4 than the original. It becomes especially noticeable when S came to other systems and the polygon count was worse compared to the vanilla release, so they could not just add S content to vanilla as DLC.
