The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom Already Runs At Above 120 FPS on PC via the Ryujinx Emulator
Despite being released today, The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom is already playable on PC with high framerates thanks to one of the Nintendo Switch emulators available.
As showcased in a new video put together by reznoire, the latest entry in the series, and the first one to feature Princess Zelda as the main character, can run at above 120 frames per second via the the latest public version of the Ryujinx emulator that can be downloaded here. While reznoire used a power system powered by an i9-14900K CPU, RTX 4090, and 32 GB RAM), less powerful systems shouldn't have any trouble running the game at acceptable framerates, given how it's not among the most demanding Nintendo Switch games around.
