Elden Ring is set to launch on the Nintendo Switch 2.

Elden Ring will be released for Nintendo’s Switch 2 console as the Tarnished Edition.

As announced at today’s Direct, the game will arrive on the new handheld hybrid this year.

It will include the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC too, as well as new armour and a new Torrent appearance customisation feature. This additional content will also be available on other platforms.

While Dark Souls Remastered was released on the original Switch, no other Soulsborne games are available on Nintendo consoles.

The release on Switch arrives three years after Elden Ring’s initial release across PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, and Xbox One. That was followed by the Shadow of the Erdtree release last year.

By the end of last year, Elden Ring had sold 28.6m copies globally across all platforms, with sales receiving a significant boost thanks to the DLC expansion.

No doubt that will be boosted further by this Switch 2 release.

There’s no news, though, on a Switch 2 release of Elden Ring Nightreign, FromSoftware’s forthcoming co-op roguelike that launches in May.
