According to the post on NeoGAF which accommodates data pulled from the overview (thanks, Nintendo Everything), the sport is dense – one thing we’ve heard earlier than – and an “absolute, and unremitting pleasure to get lost in.”

Frame fee within the Wii U model is usually a bit “uneven” at occasions, dropping into the kids; nonetheless, this solely throughout “very busy sequences” corresponding to heavy climate results and “rarely when it matters.”
Digital Foundry famous the Switch model of the sport can even take dips to FPS throughout heavy post-processing impact conditions, but pretty much maintains a solid 30fps.
