Mortal Kombat 1 introduces the iconic series to a completely new era where absolutely anything is possible. From plot twists to the tragic port on Nintendo Switch.
Developers at NetherRealm Studios have done a fantastic job with Mortal Kombat 1 on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series consoles, where the game strives to hit the maximum resolution target for the given hardware and maintains a rock-solid 60 frames per second (even on Xbox Series S). . Unfortunately, the version dedicated to Nintendo Switch is a mistake.
We’ve seen many times what the game looks like in motion, but Digital Foundry’s latest analysis reveals that MK1 on a snap can reach a resolution as low as 396p, and the game’s smoothness can drop to literally 10 frames per second! It is true that sometimes the title tries to reach 60 frames, but usually it is closer to 55, with frequent drops below 30.
- Switch (dock) – 576-756p
- Switch (mobile) – 396-720p
- PlayStation 5 – 1800-2160p
- Xbox Series X – 1800-2160p
- Xbox Series X – 1080-1440p
