"Like that sci-fi stealth adventure, the "physical" version of Assassin's Creed Shadows on Switch 2 will be a game key card. That shouldn't be too surprising considering its size on every other platform is over 100GB. The Auchan listing that leaked the apparent port doesn't confirm a release date or price, though it seems a good guess it will be $70."
"Assassin's Creed Shadows is one of the most visually impressive games on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S, and it'll be interesting to see if Ubisoft can get it looking anywhere near as good on Switch 2. The port of Star Wars Outlaws included ray-tracing and other current-gen features, making it a decent version of the 2024 mercenary sim. Other big third-party ports for the Switch 2 are still MIA. Final Fantasy VII Remake won't arrive until early 2026."
An Auchan retailer listing appears to confirm a Switch 2 port of Assassin's Creed Shadows, with the physical SKU listed as a game key card. The Switch 2 version likely requires a large on-console download, matching the game's over-100GB size on other platforms. No release date or price is confirmed by the listing, but a $70 price point and a release before year-end are plausible. Ubisoft previously delivered a strong Switch 2 port with Star Wars Outlaws, which included ray-tracing and other current-gen features. Other major third-party ports remain pending, including Final Fantasy VII Remake (early 2026), Elden Ring (undated), and Borderlands 4 (indefinitely delayed).
