Switch 2: 70 GB games and € 19.99 patches, Nintendo does not make gifts

Nintendo has lifted the veil on the prices of its next games and patches on the eshop of its Nintendo Switch 2while confirming the sizes of certain third -party blockbusters. A double warning for players, who will have to free up space and plan their purchases.

Heavier games, too fair storage?

The Switch 2 certainly offers 256 GB of internal memorybut at the time of 4K games optimized Unreal Engine 5, it may be short. Here are the confirmed sizes for some major titles:

• Split Fiction: 71 GB
• GTA V: Premium Edition: 62.5 GB
• Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition: 56.8 GB
• Dragon’s Dogma 2: 54.4 GB
• Mortal Kombat 1: 52.3 GB
• Resident Evil 4 Remake: 49.1 GB
• Street Fighter 6: 48.8 GB
• EA SPORTS FC 25: 41.2 GB

Clearly, four or five blockbusters are enough to saturate the console. And Split Fiction leads the dance with its 71 GB, well helped by the Unreal Engine 5 and its very heavy assets. The solution? A MicroSD Express card. Provided you do not give in to the temptation of cheap models, restless. The Switch 2 games, they will not give gifts.
