DOOM For Nintendo Switch Fits On 16GB Cartridge But Multiplayer Is 9GB Download
Bethesda have revealed a little more about the upcoming DOOM on the Nintendo Switch. Speaking to Glixel, a Bethesda spokesperson confirmed that the game fits on a 16GB cartridge but the multiplayer is a separate download which is 9GB. The company also reconfirmed that the Nintendo Switch version of DOOM runs at 30fps.
Bethesda also clarified that while it is the publisher for the game, Panic Button, working with id Software, is actually developing the port.
Finally, Bethesda said that the game’s single player campaign and arcade mode “fit on a 16 GB cartridge,” but that the multiplayer mode for the game, which will have to be downloaded after purchase, comes in at 9 GB. The 16GB cartridge is why multiplayer is a separate download for those purchasing a hard copy of the game.
There is no difference in how graphics are rendered between docked and handheld modes, although the game may appear different simply because it is played on a larger screen, according to Bethesda. When it is docked, the game plays on your television at 720p.
