To help give an idea of what to expect from the Lollipop Chainsaw RePop Switch port, Dragami shared gameplay footage of the first boss battle. CEO Yoshimi Yasuda also offered insights into that port on social media, discussing its resolution, frame rate, and what people can expect from the a post-launch patch.
In the Yasuda statement, he noted that Lollipop Chainsaw RePop runs at 30fps on the Switch and has a 1080p FHD resolution. He compared this to the original game, which ran at 720p HD and 30fps. He did note that the Switch version has optimized lighting, but no “screen space reflections.” As for the post-launch patch, it will add chainsaw marks after Juliet attacks places, as those marks aren’t in at launch.
Here’s that notice from Yoshimi Yasuda’s X account:
As for the Lollipop Chainsaw RePop Switch gameplay footage, there are some minor spoilers for folks who aren’t familiar with the game. It begins with Juliet confronting Swan, the San Romero student who summoned the zombies to the school. One of his Dark Purveyor zombies named Lewis Legend then rides in on his motorcycle. The rest of the video then spends about 10 minutes focusing on the ensuing boss fight.
Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP will come out on the PS5, Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X, and WIndows PC on September 25, 2024. A PS4 version is being considered.
