Skyrim Switch 2 Patch Delivers 60FPS, Latency Reduction, and Visual Tweaks

TL;DR Summary
Patch 1.2 for Skyrim Anniversary Edition on Switch 2 adds a 60fps performance mode and a 30fps visuals mode, fixes jittery water reflections and blue trees, and delivers a substantial boost in input latency—though the game still downloads a massive 53GB and the 60fps mode sacrifices resolution (dynamic 576p–1080p in docked play) with some occasional frame-time spikes; docked play mostly hits 60fps in many areas, while portable mode remains at 1080p visuals with DLAA but with lower foliage detail and still-present trade-offs. Overall, a major improvement that brings the port closer to other current-gen versions.
