'Switch 2 Editions' Are Supposedly A Switch Game Card And Download Code For The Upgrade Pack

Nintendo earlier this week announced select games from the Switch generation would be getting 'Switch 2 Edition' releases. A Nintendo customer service representative has reportedly shed light on the exact content included in the physical versions - claiming the Switch 2 Edition upgrade packs will be "download codes". Nintendo UK Customer Support team: "Yes, we can confirm that the upgrades will be download codes.

" If this is accurate, just to reiterate - it means these hard copies for Switch 2 will actually include the original Switch game with a separate code for the upgrade. Admittedly customer support representatives aren't always immediately clued up on fine details like this, so a more official confirmation directly from Nintendo could be in order here. The 'Switch 2 Edition' box arts doing the rounds so far feature fine print like "Includes the Nintendo Switch game and the Nintendo Switch 2 Edition upgrade pack" .



While this does seem to be open to interpretation, Nintendo also mentions on its website how "upgrade packs" are available as downloads. Some of the Switch 2 Editions revealed so far include games like The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild , Tears of the Kingdom , Kirby and the Forgotten Land , and Metroid Prime 4: Beyond ..
