Devil May Cry 5 is a good port on Switch 2, with reasonable image quality and great performance. There are a couple odd decisions in the mix though, and resolution figures seem a bit aggressive.

Review: Devil May Cry 5 On Switch 2 Easily Outclasses the PS4 Version, Yet Further Improvements Could Be Made.

I've been playing more MTG recently after a long break and did pretty well in the Arena qualifier weekend. 4-0 in the only play-in I tried yesterday and 5-3 during the qualifier today playing mono green stompy.

This year’s Xbox Showcase was thoroughly high quality - and the Persona reveals were a personal standout.

Switch 2’s rendition of Pragmata hits solid marks in most respects. Unfortunately, an unlocked frame-rate will make it a hard recommendation for many discerning players.

Digital Foundry@digitalfoundry.bsky.social · 4mo ago

Pragmata on Switch 2 aims high, with smart compromises and more DLSS alchemy - but really needs more consistent performance: www.digitalfoundry.net/reviews/prag...

I can't help but think Starfield on PS5 is a disappointment. Lingering performance woes, new configuration quirks, and frequent crashes conspire to make this a surprisingly troubled AAA port.

Digital Foundry@digitalfoundry.bsky.social · 4mo ago

Starfield arrives on PlayStation 5 and PS5 Pro. We still enjoyed the core game, but there are plenty of technical issues - including crashing - that really need to be addressed: youtu.be/GAy35OlPO6Y

Here's some of the DLSS 5 material we saw in the demos but didn't get a chance to film. Here I think you can see the strengths of DLSS 5 - reflections become much more attractive. Starfield doesn't have great lighting to begin with, so the differences can be profound.
