How Much to Upgrade Switch Games to Switch 2 Edition?

Nintendo has quietly confirmed the costs for upgrading certain Switch games to the Switch 2 Edition. Upgrading The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom from the original Switch version to the Switch 2 will cost $9.99. However, Kirby and the Forgotten Land and Super Mario Party Jamboree are more expensive, with the UK Nintendo eShop listing the upgrade at £16.99 / €19.99, more than double the price of the Zelda upgrades.

Switch 2: Game-Key Cards?

It's worth noting that most physical third-party Nintendo Switch 2 games in Japan are Game-Key Cards, and a similar trend is emerging in the West. In the US, Sega's Switch 2 titles like Sonic X Shadow Generations and Yakuza 0: Director’s Cut are also Game-Key Cards. However, four third-party physical Switch 2 games are not Game-Key Cards: Cyberpunk 2077, Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion, Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma, and No Sleep For Kaname Date - From AI: THE SOMNIUM FILES Aiba Edition.

Switch 2 Game Previews

IGN recently had the chance to go hands-on with two of the most anticipated Switch 2 launch titles, Donkey Kong Bananza and Mario Kart World. Both are available for preorder now, and here's what our reviewers had to say:

Donkey Kong Bananza: "I also think Bananza is on track to be one of the most gorgeous Nintendo games I’ve seen. It really does take advantage of Switch 2's hardware – the environments are beautiful and DK’s animations are wonderfully expressive, and I left feeling like the next generation of first-party Nintendo games had truly arrived."

Mario Kart World: "Mario Kart World feels like the definitive Switch 2 launch game and will certainly be one of the defining games of the Switch 2 generation. The new open world format and Knockout Tour modes are massive new additions to the franchise, the visuals are gorgeous, the gameplay is a blast, and we can’t wait to play more, even if we wish it was a few bucks cheaper."
