Ubisoft appears poised to significantly support the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2. Although Nintendo has yet to officially unveil the console, it's widely anticipated that an announcement could happen soon. Given Ubisoft's longstanding commitment to Nintendo platforms, including timed exclusives and collaborative projects, it's no surprise that they are gearing up for the Switch 2's release.
According to well-known leaker Nate the Hate, Ubisoft is preparing a substantial lineup for the Switch 2. A recent video from Nate the Hate claimed that Assassin's Creed Mirage would be available during the Switch 2's launch window, meaning it could be accessible by the end of the launch year. Additionally, Assassin's Creed Shadows is also expected to make its way to the console, though not within the initial launch period. Other titles rumored to be coming to the Switch 2 include Rainbow Six Siege, The Division series, and a potential Mario Rabbids collection featuring Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle and Sparks of Hope. Nate the Hate anticipates "more than half a dozen" Ubisoft games for the Switch 2, with most being ports.
Rumored Ubisoft Switch 2 Games
- Assassin's Creed Mirage
- Assassin's Creed Shadows
- Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle
- Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope
- Rainbow Six Siege
- The Division Series
This isn't the first time rumors have surfaced about Ubisoft's plans for the Switch 2. A previous leak from last year mentioned multiple Assassin's Creed titles, including Mirage, Shadows, Valhalla, Odyssey, and Origins, heading to the new console.
It's worth noting that the Switch 2 is expected to be backward compatible, providing immediate access to a vast library of Ubisoft games, such as Assassin's Creed Odyssey. If these rumors hold true, the Switch 2 could become an excellent choice for Assassin's Creed fans looking to enjoy these games on the go.
Given Ubisoft's strong support for previous Nintendo consoles like the Wii U, and the anticipated success of the Switch 2, it's highly likely that these rumors will prove accurate. Publishers are eager to capitalize on the potential of Nintendo's next big hit.
