The verified performance exceeds the publicly listed specifications, indicating the Switch 2 hardware and features like DLSS and VRR can deliver a higher refresh rate experience than what is officially advertised.
Reporting from 1 sources: Game Spark.
Unofficial verification videos for the Switch 2 port of Devil May Cry 5, called Devil May Cry 5 Devil Hunter Edition, show it reaching framerates above the official 60fps cap, hitting a 120fps ceiling. The system's variable refresh rate in portable mode smooths performance, with some locations exceeding 100fps. Visuals are comparable to the PS4 version.
Footage from the YouTube channel GVG shows the Nintendo Switch 2 version of Devil May Cry 5 running at a variable framerate that peaks at 120fps when the console display is set to 120Hz, far above the product's listed 60fps. In portable mode, the system supports variable refresh rate, which helps smooth fluctuations; the game reportedly stabilizes around 90fps with some areas exceeding 100fps. The visuals, while showing DLSS effects on character hair, are described as comparable to the PS4 original-with sharper monster teeth and slightly brighter lighting. The digital version launches June 23 at a 25% discount, and a physical release follows August 28.
