Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Dynamic FPS Mod Smooths Out Performance Considerably, Even On Steam Deck
Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Dynamic FPS Mod Smooths Out Performance Considerably, Even On Steam Deck-September 2024
Sep 21, 2024 8:36 AM

  The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is now available worldwide on Nintendo Switch, but those with a powerful enough system can enjoy the latest entry in the series on PC thanks to the Ryujinx and Yuzu emulators. Performance, however, may not be stable, but a new mod that is now available for download can smooth it out considerably, improving the experience on Steam Deck as well.

  The Dynamic FPS mod, created by ChucksFeedAndSeed, makes it so the game doesn't heavily slow down when framerate dips, which is great for those using the 60 FPS mod as well as for those with systems that have trouble running the game at a stable framerate. As the Steam Deck is currently not capable of running the game with stable performance, this mod is a godsend, as it essentially improves Tears of the Kingdom's playability on the system. As the Dynamic FPS mod is still in an early stage of development, however, it has some issues, and cutscenes still run faster than intended, so you will still need to switch back to a 30 FPS cap if playing at a higher framerate for the best possible experience.

  The quick release of the Dynamic FPS mod for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is mighty impressive, considering the game has only been out for a day, so it will be very interesting to see what mods developers will make in the future. As of now, the modding scene seems to be incredibly dynamic already, as other developers have released mods that introduce Xbox and DualSense button prompts and some quality-of-life improvements, such as faster teleporting.

  The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is the direct sequel to Breath of the Wild and, as such, features the same open-world experience that made it one of the most celebrated games of all time. Thankfully, Nintendo did not rest on its laurels, expanding and improving the experience with new mechanics that set Tears of the Kingdom apart from its predecessor, as highlighted by Nate in his review.
