Yoshi’s Crafted World tech analysis

Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Switch, Videos | 0 comments

Digital Foundry has taken an early look at Yoshi’s Crafted World to check in on the game from a technical standpoint. It’s particularly noteworthy since this is an Unreal Engine 4 release.

Like a number of other Switch titles we’ve seen, Yoshi’s Crafted World has a dynamic resolution. When docked, expect resolutions of around 576p and 675p. Portable mode reduces things further to roughly 396p and 495p. These numbers may lower further or increase depending on what’s happening on screen.
