Ubisoft Hinting at Enhanced Switch Support

Ubisoft's Ambitious Switch 2 Lineup: Leaks Suggest a Flood of Titles

Recent leaks and rumors point to a significant Ubisoft presence on the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2. While Nintendo remains officially silent on the console's release, the anticipation is palpable, and if history is any guide, a strong Ubisoft showing is highly probable. Ubisoft's long-standing support for Nintendo platforms, including past timed exclusives and collaborations, strongly suggests continued commitment to the Switch 2.

According to leaker Nate the Hate, Ubisoft's plans for the Switch 2 are substantial. His claims include a launch window release of Assassin's Creed Mirage for the new console. While Assassin's Creed Shadows is also rumored, its release is not expected within the initial launch period. Other titles potentially heading to the Switch 2 include Rainbow Six Siege, The Division, and a possible compilation of Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle and Sparks of Hope. Nate the Hate anticipates "more than half a dozen" Ubisoft games on the Switch 2, primarily ports of existing titles.

Potential 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's Switch 2 ambitions. A previous leak from last year mentioned multiple Assassin's Creed titles, including Mirage, Shadows, Valhalla, Odyssey, and Origins.

It's important to note the Switch 2's backward compatibility, ensuring immediate access to a vast library of existing Ubisoft games, including Assassin's Creed Odyssey. However, the rumored additions would significantly bolster the handheld's appeal for Assassin's Creed fans seeking portable adventures.

The rumors align with Ubisoft's past behavior. Their robust support for the Wii U, coupled with the Switch 2's anticipated success, makes a strong Ubisoft presence a highly plausible scenario. The potential for a considerable number of ports further strengthens this prediction.
