Request for a Performance Mode on Nintendo Switch 2
Dear Apex Legends Development Team,
I would like to respectfully express my concern regarding the current performance limitations of Apex Legends on the Nintendo Switch 2.
As a competitive player, it is disappointing to see the game capped at 60 FPS while players on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and supported PC hardware are able to compete at 120 FPS or higher. In a fast-paced battle royale environment where reaction time, tracking, and overall responsiveness are critical, the difference between 60 FPS and 120 FPS can create a noticeable competitive disadvantage.
The Nintendo Switch 2 is significantly more capable than its predecessor, and many players were excited about the possibility of a higher-performance Apex Legends experience. For this reason, I would like to request that the team consider adding a Performance Mode that prioritizes frame rate, even if it requires reduced graphical settings or resolution scaling.
Many competitive players would gladly sacrifice visual fidelity in exchange for smoother gameplay and a more level playing field across platforms. Providing players with the option to choose between Quality Mode and Performance Mode would greatly improve the experience for those who value competitive performance.
Apex Legends has built its reputation on skill-based gameplay, and giving Nintendo Switch 2 users access to higher frame rates would help ensure that all players can compete under more equitable conditions.
Thank you for your continued support of the game and for considering feedback from the Nintendo Switch 2 community.
Sincerely,
A Dedicated Apex Legends Player
