Differences:

PS4: 1080p 30fps / PS4 Pro: Native 4K 30fps
Longer draw distance for foliage
Heavier underbrush foliage in wide open areas

Switch: 900p 30fps
Uses the same updated textures as the PS4/X1 version
Volumetric lighting scaled back but not absent
Lower quality shadows
Has the most stable frame rate of all three versions
Fastest loading times

That's kind of amazing for a tiny-ass tablet

The PS4 has a limited selection of Bethesda-approved mods

The X1 version has universal mod support

Great, but this topic is between the PS4 and Switch, not the PS4 and X1

I'm sure it could easily hit 60 FPS, but the developers capped the frame rate at 30fps.

You could run it at 1080p on PS4 Pro and you still won't go above 30fps. Sad.

You missed how it's got a smoother framerate, faster load times, and is portable.

Skyrim isn't really a pretty game unless you use PC mods.

Does the Switch version include all DLC? Also, I thought it was a port of OG Skyrim, and not the re-released special edition


Yes and it is the special edition with some settings turned down.

What the Hell is the point of saying this? You are the one who made a topic comparing Switch and PS4.
