Elden Ring: Tarnished Edition coming to Nintendo Switch 2 Aug 28

gamingJun 5, 202621589

Elden Ring: Tarnished Edition will arrive on Nintendo Switch 2 on August 28, 2026, accompanied by new Switch 2 footage from Bandai Namco. The release bundles the base game with Shadow of the Erdtree DLC, adds four new armor sets, two new character classes, and a Torrent appearance customization option. Creators are turning that content into handheld gameplay edits, cosplays of the new armor sets, and short animatics of Shadow of the Erdtree boss encounters. Recurring subjects include the Tarnished protagonist, Torrent’s new looks, and cinematic boss fights across the Erdtree and Forbidden Lands.

I’m just gonna leave there here again. We’ve been over the price already. Get it or don’t, no one is forcing you, but IT IS ELDEN RING.

$80 for a game key card is NASTY work. I'm definitely gonna wait for a sale or just get it on another platform.

$80 for this is insane.

Tarnished edition is accurate based on what I’ve heard about poor FPS on SW2

This is a really dumb request, but I wish the key card label on the cases weren’t so big. I mean, I understand why it’s like that, but it makes the cases in general look a lot uglier.

Lol game keycard? No thanks

I heard that Elden Ring will be available on Switch 2, so I'm planning to take this opportunity to play it.

Yes, the Tarnished Edition is not available on the other systems (yet). It will be available as DLC. The maingame is on every other system (and I doubt that the Tarnished Edition adds something that overhauls the whole game. No i don't care about the opinion of your fav lore yter.)

ELDEN RING Tarnished Edition for Switch 2 includes the main game, Shadow of the Erdtree, 4 new armor sets, 2 new character classes, and a feature to change Torrent's appearance (3 types). The game releases on August 28, and the new content will release as DLC on existing platforms the same date.

I know it's a little winky-noddy, but basically calling the Switch 2 port "Elden Ring: Worse Edition" is so funny

$80 for Elden Ring on Switch 2 is a tough pill to swallow...

Tbf it's the same price everywhere if you're buying the dlc. But only on Switch 2 are you're forced into the dlc.

Samuel Renn2

Is it bad I’m just hoping it gets an amiibo?

All I’m sayin is that Elden Ring Tarnished Edition for the Nintendo Switch 2 should include a Link skin.

Finally, I haven't played Elden Ring since the DLC released almost 2 years ago now so really looking forward to play it again on Switch 2 this time 👍🏼

Guess I need to grab myself a Switch 2 in August then. Elden Ring + The Duskbloods is really all I need. Maybe the new DK game too.
