GAME INTRODUCTION
What to know before you play
ELDEN RING Tarnished Edition releases August 28, 2026 for Nintendo Switch 2. It includes the original Elden Ring, Shadow of the Erdtree, and new equipment and Torrent customization described by Nintendo. Nintendo's current European listing shows a 41.0 GB download size.
The product page lists one local player and online play for one to six players, with Nintendo Switch Online required for paid online features. Save Data Cloud is supported. The listed languages include English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, Korean, Chinese, Polish, and Thai.
Nintendo's August release article also refers to newly added classes, weapons, armor, and more. This page does not invent names, stats, unlock routes, or balance advice that the checked product page does not specify. Those details must be verified in the August 28 build or a more exact Bandai Namco source.
No frame-rate, resolution, battery-life, or loading-time promise is made here. A platform announcement and screenshot gallery do not prove a performance target. The first post-release review should compare the shipping build and patch on Switch 2 before technical recommendations are published.
