AI Summary

Nintendo has added variable‑refresh‑rate (VRR) support to the Switch 2 when docked, after previously removing the feature from the TV mode. The company announced on its Japanese site that the dock now outputs VRR, matching the TV’s refresh rate to the game’s frame rate when both the software and the TV support it. An update to the Switch 2 Dock is required to enable the feature. VRR reduces judder, tearing, and other screen issues by synchronizing the display with the game’s processing speed. The console had already supported VRR on its handheld OLED display, but docked VRR had been omitted until this update.
