Shift Up has confirmed the existence of 32GB physical cartridges for the Nintendo Switch 2, as revealed by the upcoming physical release of Stellar Blade.
The Nintendo Switch 2 previously only utilized 64GB cartridges, leading publishers to use 'Game-Key Cards' that require digital downloads. The new 32GB cartridge option provides a cost-effective alternative for games that do not require 64GB of storage space.
Publishers can now distribute games under 32GB entirely on physical media without the high cost of 64GB cartridges, potentially reducing the reliance on 'Game-Key Cards' that require mandatory digital downloads.
