Fortnite Switch vs. Switch 2 comparison

Another Nintendo Switch 2 comparison video has dropped, this time showing that version of Fortnite compared to Switch 1.

If you’ve played any of the battle royale title on the previous system, you should notice a substantial upgrade here. Epic already spoke about many of the improvements this week, but today’s video puts things in perspective.

Epic readied a trailer to celebrate its new version of Fortnite on Nintendo Switch 2. The game is available starting today.

Below is an official overview:

Epic published a new post today outlining all of the improvements for Fortnite on Nintendo Switch 2. If you’ve been playing on the current Nintendo Switch, you’ll notice various upgrades.

Fortnite has received a number of technical upgrades on Nintendo Switch 2. That means it runs at full 60 frames per second at a higher resolution, plus more. Mouse controls are also coming imminently via patch 36.00. 

The full rundown is as follows:

Samus Aran Metroid Fortnite

Samus Aran and the Metroid series could have been represented in Fortnite, and while Nintendo and Epic discussed the idea, that ultimately didn’t come to be.

That news comes from Donald Mustard, the former chief creative officer of Epic Games. Mustard chatted about his time working on Fortnite with Game File, including discussions that were held with Nintendo.

Fortnite has seen a ton of different collaborations over the years, but Nintendo isn’t represented at all with any of its characters or franchises. However, Epic Games is very much interested in making something happen on that front at some point in the future.

Epic’s head of Fortnite’s ecosystem, Saxs Persson, recently said the following when asked by Axios how hard the company has tried working with Nintendo: “I don’t know what the word for, like, making diamonds is.”

Horizon Chase 2 gameplay

Gameplay has emerged for Horizon Chase 2, which saw a shadowdrop yesterday as part of the latest Nintendo Direct. Close to a half hour of footage has arrived.

Catch up on everything you need to know in the following overview:

Railgrade update 4.5.31.1

A new Railgrade update recently went out on Switch, with version 4.5.31.1 having been made available.

The update is highlighted by the addition of two new paperclip panic story regions. Also included are UI improvements, fixes, and a bit of optimization.

Alan Wake Remastered update

Remedy released a new update for the Switch version of Alan Wake Remastered, and it’s out now to those who previously purchased the title. The game should now be at version 1.0.1.

There aren’t any patch notes to share as the update is pretty straightforward. According to an official tweet, it “improves overall framerate and performance, especially when the game is played in docked mode.”

Railgrade has been given a new update on Switch, with the game moving up to version 4.4.30.6.

New features (like optional modifiers), optional regions (M3 Bonus, M4 Bonus 2, M6 Bonus, M23 Bonus 4), accessibility options, and more are included. There’s also plenty of bug fixes and more.

The full patch notes for the Railgrade version 4.4.30.6 update are as follows: 

Original (11/21): Fall Guys is still trucking along, and has now announced new collaborations including SpongeBob SquarePants, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, and Ultraman. They’ll be available as part of Season 3, which is known as Sunken Secrets.

The new season will “find new mysteries in an ancient underwater city” as part of the upcoming season. Read more about it below.
