Elden Ring is set to launch on the Nintendo Switch 2 in 2025, a thrilling announcement made during Nintendo's Switch 2 Direct. While details on how the Switch 2 version will compare to those on other platforms remain sparse, the inclusion in today's presentation confirms that Elden Ring: Tarnished Edition will be available to Nintendo fans later this year.
Since its debut in February 2022, Elden Ring has emerged as a cultural phenomenon, selling over 13 million copies within a month and nearing 29 million in total sales. The game has inspired unique challenges, such as defeating bosses with the Nintendo Switch's Ring Fit controller, and sparked intense speedrunning competitions. The release was followed by the critically acclaimed Shadow of the Erdtree DLC in 2023, and anticipation is building for the upcoming cooperative spin-off, Elden Ring: Nightreign, which has shown promise in early network test sessions.In our comprehensive 10/10 review, IGN praised Elden Ring as "a massive iteration on what FromSoftware began with the Souls series, bringing its relentlessly challenging combat to an incredible open world that gives us the freedom to choose our own path." Similarly, the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC received a perfect score: "Like the base game did before it, Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree raises the bar for single-player DLC expansions. It takes everything that made the base game such a landmark RPG, condenses it into a relatively compact 20-25 hour campaign, and provides fantastic new challenges for heavily invested fans to chew on."
Although FromSoftware has not yet disclosed a specific release date for Elden Ring: Tarnished Edition, nor detailed its differences from previous versions, fans can stay updated on all announcements from today's Nintendo Switch 2 Direct by following the provided link.
