Pac-Man World 2 Re-Pac: Switch 2 vs. Switch Performance and Resolution Detailed Ahead of Launch

Pac-Man fans have plenty to look forward to, as Bandai Namco is set to launch Pac-Man World 2 Re-Pac for the Nintendo Switch and the upcoming Switch 2 on September 26, 2025.

As the release date draws near, fresh information from the game's official Japanese website provides an in-depth comparison of how the remastered classic will run across both Nintendo platforms, highlighting crucial differences in resolution, frame rate, and overall performance. Pac-Man World 2 Re-Pac takes the beloved platforming experience of the original 2002 release and enhances it for a new generation.

For returning players and newcomers alike, gameplay will be further enriched thanks to advanced technical capabilities on Nintendo's latest hardware.

According to Bandai Namco's published specification chart, players can choose between "Quality" and "Frame Rate" priority modes on both Switch and Switch 2, providing flexibility to tailor the experience for visual fidelity or smoother gameplay. For those planning to play on Switch 2, the quality priority mode delivers impressive clarity.

On TV Mode, the game targets a 4K resolution (3840 x 2160p) with a maximum frame rate of 30 frames per second.

In Handheld Mode, it runs at a full HD resolution of 1920 x 1080p, maintaining the same 30fps cap.

Meanwhile, players who prefer faster response can switch to frame rate priority mode, resulting in a consistent 1920 x 1080p resolution in both TV and Handheld Modes while boosting performance to 60 frames per second for a smoother experience. On the current Nintendo Switch, Pac-Man World 2 Re-Pac offers quality priority at 1920 x 1080p in TV Mode and 1280 x 720p in Handheld Mode, both with a maximum of 30fps.

The frame rate priority mode lowers the resolution to 1440 x 810p on TV and 1024 x 576 on Handheld, keeping the frame rate capped at 30fps.

The improvements on the Switch 2 represent a significant leap, especially for players prioritizing higher resolutions and frame rates. Bandai Namco also confirms that the Nintendo versions of Pac-Man World 2 Re-Pac will require approximately 6.3GB of storage.

This information ensures players can make room for the game ahead of the highly anticipated launch on both physical and digital storefronts, including the Nintendo eShop. In summary, Pac-Man World 2 Re-Pac looks set to deliver a visually improved and refined platforming adventure for Switch and Switch 2 audiences.

With clear options for performance and visual quality, Bandai Namco is providing flexibility that caters to a wide range of player preferences.

Mark your calendars for September 26, 2025, as the iconic Pac-Man returns for a new era of Nintendo gaming.
