While Nintendo will be selling Switch 2-enhanced versions of some of its titles, it looks like players that already own the original Switch versions of the game can simply grab an upgrade to the Switch 2 edition at a fraction of the game’s price.
As caught by ResetEra user Uzupedro, the Japanese website for Nintendo eShop indicates that players that already own Switch versions of games like The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Super Mario Party Jamboree or Kirby and the Forgotten Land can get a copy of the Switch 2-enhanced versions for ¥1,000 or ¥2,000.
Where both Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom‘s upgrades are priced at ¥1,000 each, upgrades that add more content to the game are seemingly priced higher. Kirby and the Forgotten Land and Super Mario Party Jamboree, for instance, are priced at ¥2,000 for the upgrade.
Nintendo had announced its plans to release Switch 2-enhanced versions of Switch titles during its recent Direct. During the show, the company confirmed that the Switch 2-related enhancements include improved performance and better visuals as well. The Switch 2 Editions for games will be released at various points over the coming year, kicking things off with both The Legend of Zelda titles getting their upgrades at launch on June 5.
