Summary
- Leaks suggest over half a dozen Ubisoft titles are headed to the Nintendo Switch 2.
- Assassin's Creed Mirage is reportedly slated for the console's launch window.
- Other Ubisoft games, including Assassin's Creed Shadows, are also rumored for the Switch 2.
Recent leaks and rumors point to ambitious plans from Ubisoft for the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2. While Nintendo hasn't officially unveiled the console, its arrival seems imminent. Given the success of previous Nintendo platforms, a strong Ubisoft presence on the Switch 2 is highly anticipated.
Ubisoft boasts a long history of supporting Nintendo consoles, releasing timed exclusives and even collaborating on joint projects. This ongoing partnership appears set to continue with the Switch 2.
According to leaker Nate the Hate, Ubisoft is preparing a significant Switch 2 lineup. A recent video claimed Assassin's Creed Mirage is targeted for the console's launch window (likely before the year's end). Assassin's Creed Shadows is also rumored, though not for the launch window. Other potential Switch 2 releases include Rainbow Six Siege, The Division, and possibly a collection bundling Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle and Sparks of Hope. Nate the Hate predicts "more than half a dozen" Ubisoft titles for the Switch 2, primarily 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 we've heard about Ubisoft games coming to the Switch 2. A previous leak from last year suggested multiple Assassin's Creed titles, including Mirage and Shadows, alongside Valhalla, Odyssey, and Origins.
It's important to note the Switch 2's backward compatibility, granting immediate access to a vast library of Ubisoft games, including Assassin's Creed Odyssey. However, if these rumors prove accurate, the Switch 2 could become a premier destination for Assassin's Creed fans seeking portable adventures.
The speculation surrounding Ubisoft's Switch 2 support isn't surprising. Ubisoft's robust support for the Wii U is a testament to their commitment to Nintendo platforms. With the Switch 2 poised for significant success, it's a logical move for publishers to prioritize development for this new console.
