Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition has officially launched on the Nintendo Switch, marking a significant upgrade from the original 2015 Wii U version. Fans of the franchise are excited about the enhancements, but what if there is potential for even greater improvements? This thought has sparked curiosity within the gaming community.
Recently, modder MasaGratoR uncovered an intriguing detail about the game: it contains a hidden 60fps mode that could potentially double the performance from the current 30fps cap. According to a report by wccftech, while this mode exists, it does not function as intended and can lead to various gameplay issues.
MasaGratoR explains that although the game outputs at 60 frames per second, the actual gameplay is rendered every second frame. As a result, players experience only 30 usable frames. This discovery raises questions about the game's optimization and the possibilities for future updates.
With the upcoming Switch 2 on the horizon, many gamers wonder if Nintendo will leverage this new hardware to enhance the performance of existing titles, including Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition. The game is confirmed to be playable on the Switch 2 through backwards compatibility, along with a substantial portion of the Switch's extensive physical and digital library.
While there is no concrete evidence that Nintendo will optimize Xenoblade Chronicles X for the new console, the existence of a potential 60fps mode hints that performance upgrades could be possible. Fans are eager to see if Nintendo will take advantage of the added power to boost both performance and graphical quality in their beloved games.
Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition offers an enhanced experience for Nintendo Switch players, but the discovery of a hidden 60fps mode has ignited hope for further improvements. As the gaming community eagerly anticipates the release of the Switch 2, all eyes are on Nintendo to see if they will enhance the performance of existing titles like Xenoblade Chronicles X for the next generation of gaming.
