Overview

• Hamaguchi says lighting was kept intact because it drives modern image quality and character expression.
• Processing load was reduced in areas like fog and other post‑processing effects to meet performance targets.
• A straightforward port would not have run stably in handheld mode, so rendering engineers carried out extra optimization.
• The physical release will use a Game‑Key Card so most data installs to the SSD, addressing cartridge read‑speed limits for faster loading.
• Intergrade is set to launch on Switch 2 and Xbox Series X|S on January 22, 2026, with early previews reporting a solid, consistently 30fps port.
