As the pace of innovation quickens, recent leaks suggest that Ubisoft is gearing up to unveil Assassin’s Creed Shadows for the Nintendo Switch 2, following an earlier rating from the ESRB. The French retailer Auchan has already listed the game, complete with box art and a detailed product description, signaling that an official announcement could be on the horizon. Notably, players will access the game via a Game Key Card, which necessitates downloading it instead of using a physical cartridge. This approach is likely due to the game's hefty size, exceeding 100GB and surpassing the current maximum capacity of Nintendo Switch 2 cartridges, which is 64GB. Additionally, the need for high-speed SSDs to accommodate the game's expansive open world makes physical copies less practical for such demanding releases.
