You&#8217;re looking at a 30fps frame rate target, with two resolution options available for docked mode: Prioritise Resolution and Prioritise Frame Rate. Now, the question we have here is that if we&#8217;re looking at 30fps for both, just how will performance be affected by the increased resolution?<\/p>\n<p>Capcom has noted in its announcement that frame rate may drop in high-load situations, so we&#8217;re expecting overall performance to fluctuate quite a bit more if you opt to prioritise resolution.<\/p>\n<p>Naturally, ray tracing is not available for the Switch 2, but then it seems to only be available for the PS5 Pro anyway \u2013 at least with consoles.<\/p>\n<p>So here are the exact figures:<\/p>\n<p>Mode<br \/>\nResolution<br \/>\nFrame Rate<\/p>\n<p>TV Mode<br \/>(Prioritise Resolution)<br \/>\n2240 x 1260<br \/>\n30fps<\/p>\n<p>TV Mode<br \/>(Prioritise Frame Rate)<br \/>\n1920 x 1080<br \/>\n30fps<\/p>\n<p>Handheld Mode<br \/>\n1536 x 864<br \/>\n30fps<\/p>\n<p>Monster Hunter Wilds is currently scheduled to launch on 4th December 2026. Its major expansion, Ascendance, has also been confirmed for Switch 2 and will launch in 2027.<\/p>\n<p>Are you keen to play Monster Hunter Wilds on the Switch 2? What do you make of the performance?
