Me playing on Switch watching the PS5 graphics 👁️👄👁️

[milansabojunior]

Switch version has a pretty damn good framerate and graphic in portable

[LianCasablacks]

All this people complaining about graphics and frame rate and here I am with 24 years completly amazed that you can carry that tiny thing and play a whole game like The Witcher or Mortal Kombat and still look like the console version, the best we had growing up was the PSP lmao and even that was trippy back then

The performance of the Switch version is incredible for the hardware

I've bought this game on PS4, PC and Switch. The version i play the most is on the Switch. It looks lovely on PC and PS4 but they can't compare to the flexibility of being able to play everywhere which only the Switch can.

The biggest problem with the switch version for me is the low resolution, if it was 1080p or even 900p it would look so much better, cause the graphics looks very decent and the framerate seems to be very stable.

Como demonios aún hay gente comparando Switch con PS5, no se entiende, pero más encima salen trasquilado porque la versión de Switch se ve y se juega maravillosamente, yo la tengo y no me arrepiento puedo jugar The Witcher 3 en cualquier lado.

Great comparison but the switch version should always be compared to other versions when the AA is turned off, the aa blurs it so much and completely erases a LOT of the texture details. AA off and the switch looks more jagged BUT it importantly has so much more detail 😊

[tomsandrock]

Nice work on making this video. This is exactly what I wanted to see. Thanks!

I've been playing quite a bit of this on PS5 in ray tracing mode and it's been good. Obviously performance mode runs smoother, but man the ray tracing is just nice to see. Playing this game at roughly 30 fps is fine for me, I know some people complain about playing games at 30 fps, but that hasn't bothered me.

i think it's obvious that the best experience of playing it must be on portable mode

Please note that in this comparison the switch version has AA turned on, wich significatntly blurres the image. Simply turning it off greatly improves image clarity, resulting in a sharper more detailed image overall. You can also use the sharpness setting to image sharpness further.

The Nintendo switch version is solid! 👌

[LR_Bushido]

What's up with the Nintendo switch one? I'm also playing it on my switch and it seems like I have more detail while my horse, with one of the few settings turned off being bloom (also playing while it's docked)

[wilsonalmonor]

The switch can output 1080p on dock mod

[braindeadmetalhead]

I looked this up thinking the switch port would be trash. Im blown away! It looks incredible on switch. I might get it just to transfer my PC save to for when I'm chilling

[raffitchakmakjian]

Here's a take: I like the look of the Switch version in a lot of scenes, just wish it didn't have that blur filter on and ran at anything higher than 720p. I'm hoping if they ever release a more powerful switch which backwards compatibility, that the switch version gets a resolution bump. I would prefer the assets remain the same as the base switch version (color tone, lighting, tree and foliage rendering). No, it's not the same as playing the PC version on low.

I like how they make geralt handle his sword differently in combat in the next gen version

It's too bad that the developers have entirely left the Switch version in the dark, and I feel they'll abandon it all in all. I have the PS5 and PC versions of Witcher 3 (obviously because I love this game so much). The Switch port is essential to me due to portability. I could get a Steam Deck but I can't spend any more money on a handheld, especially since I love my Nintendo-exclusive games.

[MoonSarito]

The PS5 version is the best, but I still find the Switch version extremely impressive for a handheld, it even manages to maintain the same framerate as the PS4 version.
