Dynasty Warriors: Origins on Switch 2 Locked to 30FPS to Preserve Massive Battles

Director Tomohiko Sho says the team prioritized stability over 60fps because achieving it would have required cutting the number of on-screen soldiers.

Overview

  • Omega Force confirmed in Famitsu that the Switch 2 version will run at a fixed, stable 30fps, with the interview translated by RPG Site.
  • Sho said 60fps was only feasible by lowering soldier counts to prior-series levels, and the game targets displays of a few thousand characters.
  • Dynasty Warriors: Origins launches on Nintendo Switch 2 on January 22, 2026, following earlier releases on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
  • A large-scale DLC will be available on the same day as the Switch 2 launch.
  • Koei Tecmo also announced Dynasty Warriors 3: Complete Edition Remastered for both Switch systems, scheduled for March 19, 2026.
