While Nintendo has caught several FLAKs to use the new gaming keycard system to sell “physical” versions of digital-only games, CD Projekt Red Business Development VP Jan Rosner believes selling full games through physical media is “particularly important to Nintendo audiences.” During his conversation with the gaming business, Rosner spoke about his next release Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition As the startup title for Switch 2.

According to Rosner, Experience CD Projekt Red has been released to Nintendo and will be dealing with it The Witcher 3 On the original Switch, I taught the company quite a lot. One of these was the fact that games available in physical copy are important for audiences who use Switch as their main gaming platform.

“It’s not a matter of getting away with anything,” Rossner said when asked about publishers who sell titles through game key cards under the guise of physical releases. “Nintendo, a physical retailer, is still strong, and retail generally doesn’t go anywhere. I don’t think we’ll be experiencing the reality that we just have to digitalize all of our games.”

“Again, it’s especially important for Nintendo’s audience. Maybe they could have gotten away, but are there any points? The right thing to do with a cartridge with a plug-and-play experience was the right thing.”

Nintendo players tend to love the media, so Rosner closes things by advising other studios “don’t underestimate the physical edition.” “It’s not going anywhere, and Nintendo players are very grateful for the physical edition that’s been done right,” he says.

If you have to bring it in Cyberpunk 2077 On Switch 2, Rosner also spoke about whether there will be an audience for the game on Nintendo’s platform. However, release The Witcher 3 The Switch taught CD Projekt Red that bringing more games to the platform will help expand their audience. However, there were concerns too Cyberpunk 2077 It runs on switch 2.

“We were absolutely watching that,” Rossner said, referring to the technical limitations of Nintendo’s upcoming consoles. “We wanted to make sure it was right. If (Switch 2) couldn’t run a game of this scale, it would have been clear very quickly.

“There’s always a thought behind my head, whether people compare or expect to compare to PC levels of performance,” he explained. “But again, with us The Witcher 3 Experience, players in general… I don’t want to be generous, but I don’t want to understand the limitations of platform performance. And they tend not to expect the experience they are used to on the most capable platforms out there. This is a big AAA RPG on the go. We want to make sure we can play from start to finish without making any major compromises. And I think we managed to do that. ”

Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition If you hit a store shelf on June 5th, it will be available as a launch title for the Nintendo Switch.
