SEGA and Avalanche Software released a Japanese press release with new details about Hogwarts Legacy for Nintendo Switch 2. The game runs at 1440p when docked and 1080p with HDR in handheld mode. Players can travel across the open world without loading screens. The game supports NVIDIA DLSS for better graphics and offers faster loading times than the first Switch version.
The Joy-Con 2 allows mouse control for different play styles. Though the Switch 2 can handle ray tracing, this feature does not appear in Hogwarts Legacy on the system. Most open-world games will likely skip ray tracing on Switch 2 because of hardware limits. The feature might work only in smaller games with less demand.
Hogwarts Legacy will be released when the Switch 2 launches on June 5. The game needs 24 GB of storage space. Nintendo Switch 2 has DLSS Super Resolution built in, but game makers can choose whether to use it. For games that already use DLSS on PC, like Hogwarts Legacy or Cyberpunk 2077, adding this feature makes sense.
