There are two games on the Switch that use a higher-speed GPU profile when being played in handheld mode; Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Super Mario Odyssey. We now have our first third party title to join them, which is Mortal Kombat 11. The game utilizes the 460mHz profile, which gives a boost to the graphics, but depletes your battery faster.
Two thumbs up for really going all in to port this game to Switch so good. But it's basically an eShop only game. That physical release is a joke at best, and it's a bad joke at that. Still, great work with the port.
It just sounds like they wanted to rush the game to launch along side the other consoles. If they waited and optimized and compressed the Switch port they could probably have gotten it onto the cart. I'm just grateful we got it at all on Switch (it could have gone the borderlands route) and it looks like it plays well.
It’d actually be nice if you could choose the higher performance profile for all games in handheld mode.
