## [](#digital-foundry-resident-evil-summary)Digital Foundry – Resident Evil summary

**Resident Evil 4**

– Docked: 900p. Portable 600p.
– No gyro controls
– Switch version employs mip-maps. (Not in any other version)
– Targets 60 FPS.
– Docked stays there pretty often but drops to low 50’s in battles/bosses.
– Portable still has some slowdowns but performance is better than Docked.
– John mentions he would have preferred a 30 FPS lock.

**Resident Evil Remake**

– Loading times are much longer and you see black screen for 5, 10 seconds after the door animation finishes.
– Docked: 1080p. Portable: 720p (?)
– Some Bad frame pacing (Same as PS4) and occasionally some scenes drop a few frames.

**Resident Evil Zero**

Loading times are longer than the door animations and unlike REmake, the animations pauses mid-way to let it finish.
