Pokemon Legends: Arceus came out last week on Nintendo Switch and is already playable on PC via Nintendo Switch emulators. Now what’s really cool here is that there is already a 60fps patch for it that allows the emulated version to run at 60fps.
The only downside of this first 60fps patch is that it doubles the speed of fights. My guess is that a newer patch will fix it. I also expect a draw distance patch to arrive at some point. After all, the game has just been released.
Additionally, Pokemon Legends: Arceus can now run at native 4K resolutions on both yuzu and Ryujinx. What this basically means is that PC gamers can enjoy this Pokemon game at its fullest on their PCs. And yes, the overall gaming experience will be better than the one offered by Nintendo Switch.
Now I don’t know whether the game is playable from start to finish. Still, PC gamers can launch and play the game right now on both of the aforementioned Nintendo Switch emulators.
Lastly, here is a video showcasing the game running with 60fps on PC!

nice graphics
Those visuals looks like some budget early ps3/xbox 360 game, the pokemon license should be taken from gamefreak they became lazy and complacent
It is designed to work on a potato… but you’re not wrong
Agreed – no one can argue that the Switch is a potato when BoTW exists.
So John is now pushing piracy. He really is garbage tier. The sooner game companies see this pos for what he is and boycott this site the better.
Since when emulation equals piracy?
I hope u are not that stupid as u act.
eheheh pc master race baby!
This is not true, it don’t work, the game crash after 1h or less, nice fake news
“Now I don’t know whether the game is playable from start to finish. Still, PC gamers can launch and play the game right now on both of the aforementioned Nintendo Switch emulators.”
That seems like some pretty honest news to me. The point is it’s already running and future improvements will be made.
Uhh, I managed to put 22 hours into it over the weekend. I downloaded it just to piss on it and just hated on it for the first 2-3 hours. Like the stupid cracked sky over the mountain peak that is just so slightly warped that it instead makes your screen look cracked instead.
And then at some point I started actually having fun and it started to become soul sucking.
It deff works on PC.
Using Ryujinx in 4k with 60fps.
(Tbh it’s more like 45 on my pc. ?)
Which emulators are people using to run this mod? And is there a working mod available to test this out? Sounds fun enough
