Ubisoft appears poised to make a significant impact on the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2, according to recent leaks and rumors. Although the Switch 2 has yet to be officially announced by Nintendo, its launch is eagerly anticipated, and it's expected to host a wide array of Ubisoft titles, continuing the company's long-standing support for Nintendo platforms.
For decades, Ubisoft has been a staunch supporter of Nintendo's gaming systems, releasing timed exclusives and collaborating on various projects. The latest leaks suggest that this partnership will extend to the Switch 2, with Ubisoft planning a robust lineup of games for the new console.
According to leaker Nate the Hate, Ubisoft is gearing up for a strong presence on the Switch 2. It's rumored that Assassin's Creed Mirage will be available during the console's launch window, potentially arriving by the end of the year. Assassin's Creed Shadows is also expected to make its way to the Switch 2, though not within the initial launch period. Other anticipated titles include Rainbow Six Siege, The Division series, and a possible Mario Rabbids collection, encompassing both Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle and Sparks of Hope. Nate the Hate estimates that Ubisoft will bring "more than half a dozen" games to the Switch 2, mostly through 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
These rumors are consistent with previous leaks from last year, which also mentioned Ubisoft's plans to bring multiple Assassin's Creed titles to the Switch 2, including Mirage, Shadows, Valhalla, Odyssey, and Origins.
It's important to note that the Switch 2 is expected to be backward compatible, giving players immediate access to a vast library of Ubisoft games, such as Assassin's Creed Odyssey. If the rumors hold true, the Switch 2 could become an excellent choice for fans of the Assassin's Creed series looking to enjoy these games on the go.
Given Ubisoft's history of supporting Nintendo platforms, such as the Wii U, it's not surprising to hear these rumors about their plans for the Switch 2. With the new console likely to be a major success, it's a smart move for publishers like Ubisoft to prepare a strong lineup of games for its launch.
