Cyberpunk 2077 uses DLSS in all modes on Switch 2

Both docked and handheld modes of Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition on the Nintendo Switch 2 will use DLSS, an upscaler that can help with frame rates. It’s also used regardless of playing in Performance or Quality Mode.

As confirmed by Eurogamer, this DLSS usage is a specific version that Nvidia made to work on the Switch 2.

“We’re using a version of DLSS available for Nintendo Switch 2 hardware, powered by Nvidia’s Tensor cores. The game utilizes DLSS in all four modes: in handheld and docked, and the performance and quality variations of each.”

In terms of performance, we can expect 30 FPS while playing in Quality Mode and 40 FPS in Performance Mode. Resolution-wise, Performance Mode tones the game down to 720p, while Quality Mode brings it to 1080p.

Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition launches June 5, 2025 as a third-party launch title for the Switch 2.
