Absolum on Switch 2

Switch 2 has its own Absolum edition from 17 September 2026. Published notes mention 60 frames per second, a clearer image and GameShare. DekuDeals lists the digital upgrade pack as free. A physical Switch 2 box was reported at €49.99.

Upgrade versus a new box

This page is only the Switch 2 edition. The 2025 Nintendo Switch release stays on its own page so the 60 fps claim is not pasted onto the older handheld. DekuDeals marked the digital Upgrade Pack free. That listing does not say whether a physical Switch cartridge includes an upgrade code, so I leave that cell open.

Gamereactor.es reported a Switch 2 physical release for the third quarter of 2026 at €49.99 with a full cartridge, four pins, a booklet and four cards. Compare that with the Silver Lining boxes on the buy page before you assume the contents match.

Upgrade price depends on region

Perfectly Nintendo records the September release as a free upgrade in Europe and North America, with paid upgrade packs in Japan and some Asian markets. The free US digital pack should not be generalized to every country.

Questions

Does the original Switch copy become 60 fps?

The 60 fps claim is attached to the Switch 2 edition, not automatically to the 2025 cartridge.

Is the upgrade a separate purchase?

DekuDeals listed the digital pack as free. Confirm on the Nintendo store at checkout.
