The reveal came via a recent Nintendo Direct, with hints at more Tomb Raider games on Switch in the future.
Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced confirms up to 60 FPS on PS5 with HDR, Dolby Atmos and DualSense haptics; both PS5 and PS5 Pro output upscaled 4K (2160p) across all modes, which are Performance (60 FPS), Balanced (40 FPS) and Fidelity (30 FPS).
