It Runs Just as Well in Handheld as in TV Mode
Considering Daemon X Machina is a Switch exclusive there’s some great news: the game runs pretty much seamlessly in both TV mode and handheld.
It’s honestly pretty impressive that things don’t take a hit when you switch to handheld, making it a great option for playing on the go.
Like most Switch games, the resolution does take a little hit when going to handheld, but luckily the framerate stays totally steady.
The YouTube channel ContraNetwork has a framerate test of both modes, and as you can see in the video the game runs at 30fps almost all the time, no matter which mode you’re playing in.
With a high-speed mech game like Daemon X Machina, visual fidelity is hugely important, and it’s clear the team at Marvelous knew that.
If you’re looking for an action game on the go, Daemon X Machina might be the perfect pick.
