Muramasa: Revenant Blades Hits PS5 and Switch 2: Here's How It Runs

Ever wonder how a gorgeous 2D action game like Muramasa holds up when it jumps to brand-new hardware? Marvelous just pulled back the curtain on exactly what you can expect from Muramasa: Revenant Blades on consoles.

The publisher has revealed the resolution and frame rate targets for the console versions of the game. That covers three setups: PlayStation 5, the Switch 2, and the original Switch in docked mode. If you're planning to pick this one up, those details matter.

It's a smart move to lay this out early. Performance talk is one of the first things players ask about whenever a stylish, fast-paced action title heads to a new platform. Marvelous clearly knows its audience is paying attention.

What's notable here is the spread of hardware involved. You've got Sony's current-gen console, Nintendo's next-generation system, and the original Switch all in the mix. That means the game is being tuned for a pretty wide range of power levels, which is always interesting to watch unfold.

For Switch owners especially, the docked-mode detail is worth noting. Handheld and docked play can behave differently, so knowing the target applies to docked mode gives you a clearer picture of what the big-screen experience is aiming for.

We don't have the full breakdown of every number just yet in this update, but the fact that Marvelous is sharing these targets at all is a good sign. It suggests the team is confident in how the game performs across all three platforms.

If you're a fan of the original Muramasa or just love a good side-scrolling action game with style, this is one to keep on your radar. Performance targets are only part of the story, of course, but they're a solid indicator of how smooth your adventure is going to feel.

So which version are you leaning toward? Are you going PS5 for the power, Switch 2 for the shiny new hardware, or sticking with your trusty Switch 1? Let us know what you think, and stay tuned for more details as they drop.
