Digital Foundry has an early look at Fire Emblem Engage with a new technical analysis, which covers elements like frame rate and resolution.

Here’s a roundup of notable tidbits:

– Fire Emblem Engage resolution when docked is just below 1080p
– Usually around 972p or so

– Portable mode resolution slightly below native 720p
– Visible macro blocking and compression artifacts with pre-rendered videos
– User interface has a more uniform design compared to Three Houses and has a shared aesthetic across all situations
