Resident evil 6 switch
Everything is going nuts and blowing up in a way that even Michael Bay would approve of, and while it's still not as iconic as some of the earlier Resident Evil games, I'd argue that it's far more striking than the washed-out look of Resident Evil 5. I would also say that the setting is visually more interesting this time, taking place in a busy city being overtaken by multiple viral outbreaks - zombies are back again, as well as a new mutant form of the intelligent enemies of Resident Evil 4 and 5 called J'avo. If it wasn't for the framerate issues, this would actually be one of the better-looking games on the Nintendo Switch, in my opinion.
Resident evil 6 switch 720p#
The game has a resolution of 1080p in docked mode and 720p in handheld mode, features detailed environments filled with activity, nicely-detailed character models (though again, the mouths don't always match up with what they're saying), some really nice lighting and reflection effects. That's unfortunate, because otherwise this game is visually very impressive on the Nintendo Switch. It's not unplayable, but it definitely mars the performance of this game, and stands in stark contrast to the 60FPS performance on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
Right from the opening introductory sequence, you're faced with framerates that can get as low as 17FPS, with framerates in general that range between 25-35FPS, dropping down to hover around 20FPS when playing in split-screen co-op (thanks to Digital Foundry for the numbers). In terms of presentation, Resident Evil 6 looks fantastic on the Nintendo Switch, albeit with one major exception – the framerates here can get extremely choppy when things get explosive (which is fairly frequently, actually). Originally released on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in 2012, the game was subsequently ported to other platforms, with the Nintendo Switch version releasing in 2019. There are definitely elements of the series' Horror roots still present in places here, but largely this is a game that is not bashful about wanting to be more of a roller coaster ride than a haunted house.
Resident evil 6 switch series#
After Resident Evil 5 pushed the series in a heavily action-focused direction, Resident Evil 6 went for broke and went full-on Action. Resident Evil 6 is a game that is seen by many series fans as something of a low point for the series. Note: This game is included in the Resident Evil Triple Pack, along with Resident Evil 4 and Resident Evil 5 Players: 1-2 Co-Op (Local Split-Screen), 2-6 Co-Op / Competitive (Local Wireless, Online), Online Leaderboards
