The tech-focussed team at Digital Foundry have been looking closely at the Nintendo Switch 2 version of Street Fighter 6 and have discovered that the Nintendo Switch 2 version of the game utilises DLSS. The DLSS image upscales the resolution from a base of 540p in handheld mode to a higher resolution. This is all based on demo footage and is not a full representation of the final game, which is due out on the 5th June.
“While our initial pixel counts of Street Fighter 6 during the Switch 2 Nintendo Direct reveal pointed to a native 1080p based on limited footage, the more recent Nintendo Treehouse feed shows a scale from a native 960×540 to a 1080p target using an AI upscaling method – with evidence suggesting Nvidia’s DLSS based on this footage. Looking back, this 540p upscale appears to be in place in the original Direct footage as well. It’s a remarkably clean scale in most shots, with the first few frames following a camera cut being one way to catch the base resolution from its docked mode play. We’ll be sure to report back once we have more information.”
