The tech-focussed team at Digital Foundry has been trying out one of the worst performing games on the Nintendo Switch, which is Batman: Arkham Knight, on the Nintendo Switch 2 and they’ve been pleased with the results. Digital Foundry says that the game runs much better on the newer hardware and that “Switch 1 games do run better on Switch 2.” This is good news for any game that you own on the original console which had performance hiccups, as hopefully some of the issues that you had might be resolved.
“The first game I tested was Batman: Arkham Knight, described by DF’s Oliver Mackenzie as “the worst performing software I have reviewed to date at Digital Foundry”. 18 months on he says it still is – but the good news is that Switch 2 fixes all of its performance issues, at times doubling performance. Put simply, Switch 1 games do run better on Switch 2.”
