Shift Up says the Nintendo Switch 2 version of Stellar Blade will include an on/off toggle for its frame generation feature at launch. The change follows criticism of the eShop demo, where the use of frame generation reportedly causes noticeable input lag during fast-paced gameplay.
According to reporting across outlets, the toggle is intended to let players choose whether frame generation is enabled, addressing concerns that the feature is not suitable for all players. In the demo described by multiple sources, the frame generation setting was treated as mandatory, leaving no way to adjust performance or responsiveness.
Outlets also place the update in the broader context of Switch 2-era experiments with frame generation to reach higher frame rates. Nintendo Life notes that other upcoming titles, such as Dragon’s Dogma 2, already plan to offer a similar option, highlighting that Shift Up’s approach for Stellar Blade aligns with an emerging pattern of giving players control over the technology.
