Video: Monster Hunter Stories 3 Nintendo Switch 2 vs. Xbox Series S vs. PS5 graphics comparison
Posted on 21 hours ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Switch 2, Videos | 0 comments
Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection has been given a new graphics comparison video for its Nintendo Switch 2, Xbox Series S, and PS5 versions. This is based on the new demo that just debuted a few days ago.
Right now the main concern with the Nintendo Switch 2 version is the game’s frame rate. Performance isn’t a massive issue when docked, but in portable mode, there are more drops below 30 FPS – hopefully a patch will tidy things up. It is worth noting that on Nintendo Switch 2, the frame rate is more stable compared to Xbox Series S when docked. The frame rate isn’t really perfect on any platform due to a lack of a cap.
