A leak for a Nintendo Switch 2 launch game
Leaks around the Nintendo Switch 2 have been multiplying for months, and recently, it is the power of the console which has again been the subject of leaks. If the details shared are accurate, the machine would be faster than a PS4 in portable mode, but would be somewhere between a PS4 and an Xbox Series S in docked mode. An estimate that would not take into account compatibility with Nvidia's DLSS. Upscaling technology that improves performance and visuals while saving resources.
According to rumors, the capabilities of DLSS on Nintendo Switch 2 were demonstrated with a 4K 60fps demo of The Legend of the Zelda Breath Wild where loading times were absent. A simple technical demo to sell the beast? If we are to believe the leaker Midori, who often deals with scoops on SEGA and Atlus, no. The Internet user claims that Big N could release a new version of the game. “There is a project at Nintendo with the code name U-King-O. This could be linked to rumors about the code name of the next Nintendo console » has explained Midori. What does this have to do with BOTW? “U-King” is the internal codename for Zelda Breath of the Wild. The suffix “O” would be a sign for a new version… on Nintendo Switch 2 therefore.
The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild Remastered at the launch of the Nintendo Switch 2? Midori doesn't provide any additional information, but it would be an easy cartridge to fill out the line-up. And it wouldn't be the only one since we're talking about ports for FF7 Remake, Visions of Mana or an improved edition of the Bayonetta trilogy. If this is confirmed, we must hope that Big N offers a free update for all Breath of the Wild owners.
