"FromSoftware and publisher Bandai Namco have delayed Elden Ring: Tarnished Edition the Switch 2 version of the massively successful action RPG until 2026. The port was announced back in April and it was originally slated to arrive sometime this year."
"Players got their first taste of the port during public demos at Gamescom in August, but performance issues were evident. At the time, IGN described the game as a "disaster" in the Switch 2's handheld mode, citing "significant" frame rate drops and a "confusing" button layout. Nintendo Life saw "multiple instances of frame drops and stuttering while out in the open world." So, taking extra time to make sure Elden Ring runs as smoothly as possible on the Switch 2 seems wise."
Elden Ring: Tarnished Edition for Nintendo Switch 2 has been moved to 2026 to allow additional time for performance adjustments. The port was announced in April and had originally been scheduled for release this year. A post on the Elden Ring X account apologized to players and cited the need for more development time. Public demos at Gamescom exposed performance problems in handheld mode, with major frame rate drops and confusing controls reported by outlets. The Tarnished Edition bundles Shadow of the Erdtree plus new classes, weapons, armor and Torrent customization. FromSoftware is also developing a Switch 2 exclusive, The Duskbloods, for 2026.
