  • Nintendo Switch 2 Edition games may be a combination of Switch 1 cartridges and a download code
  • This comes from a Nintendo UK support representative
  • Nothing on this front has been outright confirmed by Nintendo yet

Nintendo Switch 2 Edition games like Metroid Prime 4: Beyond and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom may have a bit of a nasty catch as the physical versions could potentially just be original Switch cartridges with a download code attached.

Reportedly, a Nintendo UK representative had sent out an email stating that: “Yes, we can confirm that the upgrades will be download codes.” The response was shared to X / Twitter by the ‘Does it play?’ account (via Eurogamer).
