Atlus Confirms Raidou Remastered Performance and Resolution Details for Nintendo Switch and Switch 2

Atlus, renowned for its RPG expertise, is set to launch 'Raidou Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army' on both the original Nintendo Switch and the upcoming Switch 2 this June.

This much-anticipated remaster brings a beloved entry in the Shin Megami Tensei spin-off series into the modern era, giving franchise fans a reason to revisit a supernatural cult classic on contemporary hardware. Recently, Atlus provided new technical insights via its official Japanese website, detailing exactly how 'Raidou Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army' will perform across the Nintendo Switch ecosystem and competing platforms.

According to the publisher, the Switch 2 iteration of the game is slated to operate at a consistent 60 frames per second (fps) in both TV and handheld modes, maintaining a crisp 1920 x 1080 resolution.

These specifications position the Switch 2 version as a significant step forward in terms of performance fidelity, designed to fully leverage the updated hardware’s capabilities. On the original Nintendo Switch, 'Raidou Remastered' will offer a framerate that dynamically ranges between 30fps and 60fps, depending on gameplay demands, for both docked and portable play.

TV mode matches the Switch 2's 1920 x 1080 resolution, while handheld mode will be delivered at 1280 x 720, aligning with the standard output of the current generation console. For comparison, Atlus disclosed that the PlayStation 4 edition of the game will run at 30-60fps with a fixed 1920 x 1080 resolution, providing parity with the Switch versions in TV mode.

The new-gen offerings push fidelity further, with PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X users able to enjoy the game at a sharp 3840 x 2160 (4K) resolution locked at 60fps, while the Xbox Series S targets 2560 x 1440 at 60fps. Additionally, Atlus clarified that the Switch 2’s physical release of 'Raidou Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army' will ship as a game-key card, requiring users to have up to 17GB of free storage space available on their system.

This marks an important consideration for fans who prefer tangible game ownership, as digital downloads continue to dominate the eShop and other online storefronts. 'Raidou Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army' promises an enhanced experience on contemporary consoles without losing the atmospheric charm of the original.

With exacting attention to hardware strengths, Atlus is ensuring players on the Nintendo Switch, Switch 2, as well as PlayStation and Xbox platforms, will be able to enjoy this iconic supernatural action RPG at its best when it drops this June.
