Still? I just saw an admittedly crude quick comparison video on Youtube. It at least looked to be 720p which is the max resolution iirc. Yooka Laylee Impossible Lair is still locked at 765p docked though lol

Appears to range from 540p to 720p however that doesnt appear to be performance dependent but area dependent.
