Initial technical reports on Star Wars Outlaws’ performance on Nintendo Switch 2 from Digital Foundry were not encouraging, with frequent frame drops observed during gameplay. According to GVG, the game’s performance on the hybrid console still appears to be poor.
The game was playable at PAX West 2025, but Nintendo prohibited attendees from taking any screenshots. It was the only game not allowed to be photographed. It’s worth noting that the playable areas, where the game’s performance suffered, were linear, so how about open worlds? The Switch 2 version is due out on September 4.
