NieR Automata: The End of YoRHA Edition will run at 30 FPS, Square Enix, and Platinum Games confirmed following the announcement of the Nintendo Switch version of the game.
On the NieR series official Twitter profile, it has also been confirmed that the game will run at 1080p resolution in Docked Mode and at 720p resolution in Handheld Mode. Unfortunately, it isn’t specified if dynamic resolution will be used. And, while expected, it is definitely disappointing that NieR Automata will run at only 30 FPS on Nintendo Switch, as the game’s intense action gameplay benefits greatly from high framerates.
※本作の解像度は、TVモードで1920×1080、テーブルモード/携帯モードで1280×720です。また、フレームレートは30fpsです。

Not counting the technical differences with the other versions of the game, NieR Automata: The End of YoRHA Edition will not be too different from the PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One releases, as it will include the base game and all of the DLC content. Additionally, the Nintendo Switch release will get some additional costumes not found in the other releases that will be available at launch.
