Elden Ring is set to make its debut on the Nintendo Switch 2 in 2025, a thrilling announcement that came during Nintendo's Switch 2 Direct. While it's still unclear how this version will compare to those on other platforms, the inclusion in today's presentation confirms that Elden Ring: Tarnished Edition will be available to Nintendo fans later this year.
Since its release in February 2022, Elden Ring has become a cultural phenomenon, selling over 13 million copies within its first month and nearly 29 million copies to date. It has seen players conquer its bosses using the innovative Nintendo Switch Ring Fit controller and has inspired ambitious speedrunning challenges. The game was further enhanced with the release of the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC in 2023, and the upcoming cooperative spin-off, Elden Ring: Nightreign, is showing promise in early public network test sessions.IGN's 10/10 review 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, Shadow of the Erdtree received a 10/10, lauded for raising "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."
FromSoftware has yet to disclose a specific release date for Elden Ring: Tarnished Edition on the Switch 2, nor have they detailed how it will differ from previous versions. For more details on today's announcements, you can explore everything revealed at the Nintendo Switch 2 Direct.
