Respected tech publication Digital Foundry has recently gone hands on with a near finished build of Splatoon and the results sound extremely promising. The site says that the preview build of the game delivers what they say is a near flawless 60fps and claims that this could easily be fine tuned before the game is released on May 29th. You can read their thoughts about the preview build of Splatoon, here.

Fortunately, even in its unreleased state, Splatoon delivers a near flawless 60fps update across the board with only the occasional dropped frame detracting from the fluidity – mostly unnoticeable in action, and something that could well be ironed out in the game’s final run of optimisation. The chaotic nature of the game mixed with a free aiming system certainly presents a performance challenge beyond the scope of most Nintendo games, but the results here are uniformly excellent. Without pushing the limits of the final game we can’t give our final verdict on the matter but, at this stage, things are looking very good indeed.
