If the latest leaks are to be believed, Ubisoft has ambitious plans for the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2. Although the console hasn't been officially announced by Nintendo, industry insiders suggest its release is imminent. Given the company's history with Nintendo, Ubisoft is poised to maintain its strong support for the new hardware.
For decades, Ubisoft has demonstrated unwavering commitment to Nintendo platforms, often releasing exclusive content tailored to Nintendo audiences. This relationship is expected to continue with the Switch 2, with Ubisoft reportedly planning to bring several major titles to the platform.
One of the most anticipated releases is Assassin's Creed Mirage, which is rumored to launch within the Switch 2's initial release window. Additionally, Assassin's Creed Shadows is tipped to arrive, though not during the console's launch phase. Other Ubisoft games expected to grace the Switch 2 include Rainbow Six Siege, The Division, and possibly a Mario Rabbids crossover featuring both Kingdom Battle and Sparks of Hope. Overall, leaks suggest that Ubisoft intends to release more than half a dozen games for the Switch 2, primarily through porting existing titles.
Previous rumors have also hinted at Ubisoft bringing multiple Assassin's Creed games to the Switch 2, including Mirage, Shadows, Valhalla, Odyssey, and Origins. Since the Switch 2 will be backward-compatible, it will automatically inherit a vast library of Ubisoft titles, including Odyssey. However, if these rumors hold true, the new console could become a premier destination for Assassin's Creed fans looking to enjoy their favorite games on the go.
Considering Ubisoft's past support for Nintendo platforms like the Wii U, it's logical to expect similar enthusiasm for the Switch 2. With its expected popularity, the new console presents a golden opportunity for publishers to capitalize on a growing audience. If Ubisoft follows through on these rumored plans, it could solidify the Switch 2 as a must-have for gamers worldwide.
