60 fps on Nintendo Switch?

When they asked Moon Studios about the possibility of the video game coming out on Nintendo Switch, the team acknowledged that it was difficult to maintain 60 fps. “We love Switch! But right now we have nothing to announce when it comes to a port of Ori and the Will of the Wisps. If we did, I can confirm that it would be extremely difficult to adapt the game to work at 60 fps “, they pointed out then.

In Ori and the Will of the Wisps, originally released on Xbox One and PC (also on Xbox Game Pass from day 1), the world grows to host more adventures. There is no longer just a single point of view, as we handle other characters apart from Ori. The developers have thus wanted to enrich the narrative.

Moon Studios has signed an agreement with Private Division to develop its next project, an ambitious RPG not yet officially announced.
