According to a well-known leaker, Elden Ring will be available on the Switch 2. According to the same report, FromSoftware may not have created this new version of the game for Nintendo's unspecified console.

Third-party developers are anticipated to provide robust support for the Switch successor. Three titles for the Switch 2 have already been revealed, and many more are probably on the way once the system is formally unveiled.

Meanwhile, well-known leaker Nash Weedle recently claimed on Twitter that Nintendo's next tablet will also feature Elden Ring. According to reports, the Switch 2 port of the game is a "definitive edition" that comes with the highly regarded Shadow of the Erdtree DLC.

Dark Souls Could Handle The Elden Ring Switch 2 Version: Remastered Developer

According to the same source, Virtuos, not FromSoftware, is in charge of the alleged port. Having previously worked on titles like Assassin's Creed Liberation Remastered and BioShock: The Collection, the Singaporean studio has a lengthy history of porting games to the Switch. Dark Souls: Remastered, the only FromSoftware game still available on Nintendo's hybrid system, was also developed by Virtuos. As a result, it seems plausible that Virtuos would be responsible for introducing Elden Ring to the Switch 2.

By Late 2025, Elden Ring Might Arrive At Switch 2.

According to Nash Weedle, Elden Ring's Switch 2 version might be available for purchase by the end of 2025. If this timeline is believed to be accurate, the game might be the first release on Nintendo's next console. According to some recent sources, the Switch 2 might not be released before late 2025, in part because it has not yet entered mass production, even though the device isn't anticipated to reach shop shelves before Q2 2025 at the latest.

According to a February 2024 article from Nikkei, Nintendo is reportedly keen to prevent launch shortages similar to the one that beset its predecessor. Nintendo may need more than six months to accumulate inventory before releasing the Switch 2, considering that the company's current production output is estimated to be comparable to its 2016 levels and that the Switch was in mass production for just over four months prior to debut.
