Crysis Remastered: which platform plays it best?
What changes between Xbox, Switch: resolution, FPS per mode, what each official store publishes and the FPS we measured on PC.
Quick verdict
Xbox is the only version with confirmed 4K, HDR and ray tracing; Switch keeps up by leaning hard on dynamic resolution.
What the Xbox listing confirms
The official Xbox catalogue confirms 4K, HDR, ray tracing and current-generation optimisation for this version, plus cloud saves. It is the fullest spec sheet of the three platforms we compare here.
What Switch gives up
Switch runs the game with a dynamic resolution in both modes. Docked it tops out at 1440×900 and drops as low as 835×522, with 1152×720 the count you see most; handheld the ceiling is 1152×720 and the floor 640×432. That is a wide window, and it explains why the image shifts so much from scene to scene.
The gap on PC
There is no published technical breakdown of the PC version with resolutions or frame rates, so its column stays empty. We would rather leave it blank than infer numbers from the console versions.

Frequently asked questions about Crysis Remastered
Which platform does Crysis Remastered look best on?
Xbox, the only version with 4K, HDR and ray tracing confirmed by the official catalogue. There is no published analysis of the PC version with numbers, so we do not rank it. Switch plays a different game entirely: its docked ceiling is 1440×900.
How does the Switch version hold up?
It uses a dynamic resolution in both modes. Docked it swings between 835×522 and 1440×900, most often sitting at 1152×720. Handheld it falls as low as 640×432 with a 1152×720 ceiling.
Does it have ray tracing?
The Xbox catalogue lists it for that version. There is no equivalent confirmation for PC or Switch, so we do not assume it there.
Is the Switch version worth it?
It depends what you want from it. It is the only one you can take with you, and it pays for that in resolution: in handheld mode it spends much of its time below a real 720p.
What frame rate does it run at?
We are not publishing frame rate figures for this game. The available analysis measures resolution on Switch, not frames per second on the other versions, and we would rather leave that blank than estimate it.
