A switch version is coming for switch 2 but you’re uncertain if the switch 2 version will come out on the switch 1? What?
NintendoJam has updated the article. Sorry for the confusion on this one, apologies!
The article has been updated! There was a bit of confusion as the description for the trailer was worded in a way that sounded like the Switch 2 would be a separate release and not be getting a free upgrade. However, CD Projekt Red just confirmed in the press release that all owners of the Switch 1 version WILL be able to upgrade to the Switch 2 remaster for free!
Free upgrade! Nice!
For free eh? Fuck you Square Enix!
For free? CD project red is such a cool company. Sure, the launch of cyberpunk was Horrid, but they have been redeeming themselves.
Free update is amazing, as I own the Switch 1 physical. I wonder if they’ll do a beefy cartridge for Switch 2? That’d make me double dip lol
Same. If they do a s2 physical I’ll get that for sure. Any support for physical and I’m in. CD project red are doing things right. Releasing games all in physical card and free upgrades (even though doing this upgrade costs them money to make).
Yeah great that it’s free. It was amazing to have it on Switch but it did look a bit crusty. Will be cool to see how big of a difference it is! The also said in the trailer that there will be Switch 2 exclusive features which I imagine will be all about mouse mode
Not sure if I want to play it as a mouse!
You will be playing as Wizard Mickey as he appeared in Fantasia. You will also receive the brush from the Epic Mickey games.

You got a good chuckle out of me
No problem, best type of medicine there is!
