Tying in with its latest financial results, Marvelous commented on future plans for Switch. The company said that both new projects and older titles are planned for the system.
Fate/Extella: The Umbral Star was ported to Switch this past summer. Marvelous is also confirmed to be working on some sort of Story of Seasons game.
Crazy Justice is a new third-person shooter from Black Riddles Studio. It features a cel-shaded, steampunk visual style with support for cross-play, motion controls, and more.
On Twitter, Black Riddles Studio shared a technical tidbit about the Switch version. The team is currently targeting 60 frames per second and what sounds like a 1080p resolution when the system is docked. We assume that the FPS will remain stable in handheld mode, but the resolution will drop to at least 720p like all other Switch games.
Yes, the target is 60FPS on Switch, however only in Full HD (docked) 😀
