- Nintendo confirms that Switch 2 has Nvidia DLSS and Ray-Tracing
- It did not share which games support the technology
- Nvidia has also revealed that Switch 2 is driven by a custom nvidia processor
Nintendo has confirmed that Switch 2 will contain NVIDIA DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling) and beam pores.
During a round table game and questions in New York after the big Nintendo Switch 2 directly yesterday (via IGN), Nintendo revealed that the new console will use the technology, but refrained from sharing which version and which Switch 2 games support it.
“We use DLSS SCALLING Technology, and that’s something we need to use when developing games,” said Takuhiro DOHTA, Senior Director of Programming Management Group Entertainment Planning & Development Department, at Nintendo’s Division for Entertainment Planning and Development.
“And when it comes to hardware, it’s able to broadcast to a TV of a maximum of 4K. Whether the software developer will use it as an original resolution or make it upscale is something the software developer can choose. I think it opens a lot of options for the software developer to choose from.”
When asked about Switch 2’s GPU, Dohta confirmed that it gives Ray Tracing but was Cagey on the details and said, “As with DLSS, I think this gives another opportunity for the software developer to use and a tool for them.”
Although Nintendo was unable to share any details of GPU itself, Nvidia has since released a blog post confirming that Switch 2 is powered by a custom NVIDIA processor with an NVIDIA GPU along with dedicated RT nuclei and tenses for “fantastic visuals and AI-powered improvement.”
Thanks to the new technique, this Switch 2 allows you to run in 4K in docked mode and 120 images per day. Second (FPS) that we learned yesterday when the specifications were revealed.
Nintendo Switch 2 will be launched on June 5, 2025 and costs $ 449.99 / £ 395.99, with pre -provisions scheduled to open on April 8th.
Techradar Gaming participated in an exclusive hands-on preview and spent four hours testing the Nintendo Switch 2.
