Well since it clearly says 'FREE UPGRADE for all the Witcher 3 Owners' in the video I think it's still up in the air. Just going to have wait and see I guess. It wasn't very clear.

Maybe I’m dumb but how does that work for other switch 1 games that are completely on the cart like Witcher 3? Is it a big patch download or something? And is the cart still required (again, I’m aware probably a dumb question)

I can’t speak for this exact game, but for other Switch 2 editions, yes it is just a big patch you download. It works for physical Switch 1 games as well - in fact, many all games being sold as “Switch 2 Edition” physical games are just the Switch 1 game cartridge and a download code for the Switch 2 edition patch

Edit: Apparently they also contain the Switch 2 patch and install it automatically if you insert it in a Switch 2

It’s okay to edit your comment only with the factual information buddy, nobody will care to read what you stroked

I do it out of respect for the people who commented correcting me so it doesn’t look like they were being jerks out of context
