Despite the high framerate, some animations such as particle effects and reloading play at their original speed of 30fps.

The Switch version runs in 1080p at 60fps, and although I did see a few dropped frames in the bigger environments the framerate stayed smooth and solid for the majority of the campaign. The remastered port of RE4 is perfectly fine, but it’s also nothing special. RE4 was a seminal entry into the classic horror franchise that changed the face of the series forever - for better or worse - and it’s astounding just how well it holds up over a decade later. It sits somewhere between the pure survival horror of its predecessors and the over-the-top action of the later Resident Evil games, and it manages to find the perfect balance of the two styles. Resident Evil 4 is one of the most acclaimed video games of all time - and for good reason.
