2. How do these differ from the original versions?

While you can already most of these on the original Nintendo Switch, there is a special Switch 2 Edition version of these games that are expected to offer improved graphics (like a remaster) and may even offer new and unique ways to play thanks to the new Switch 2 hardware. These are completely standalone games so simply popping in a Switch disc won’t get you the improved fidelity. Gamers would need to purchase an upgrade pack to play the Switch 2 versions.

Metroid Prime 4 Beyond, and Pokemon Legends: Z-A are next gen Nintendo exclusives, but Super Mario Party Jamboree, Sid Meier’s Civilization 7, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, and Kirby and the Forgotten Land could offer better visuals and possibly support higher refresh rate as well. Keep in mind that Nintendo could add more titles to this list later on.

As per the official announcement from Nintendo, the Switch 2 Edition Games will be available in both physical and digital copies, which is great for avid collectors. Some of these titles are apparently already listed on major retailers like Walmart and Target. However, that’s all of the good news as the company is planning on selling these games for a premium. Gone are the days of $60 AAA titles as most big budget games cost around $70. Nintendo is no exception to this, hinting at these games costing between $70 and $80.
