Level-5 has revealed that Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time will be a Nintendo Switch 2 launch title, and that players who already own the game on Switch 1 will be able to upgrade for just $2.59.
Compared to the Nintendo Switch version, Level-5 states that Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition will feature reduced load times, improved visuals, and a higher frame rate. Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition is set to retail for $62.58, reflecting the fact that a Switch 2 Edition upgrade pack from the Switch version will cost $2.59.
This is significantly cheaper than the paid upgrades for other Nintendo Switch 2 Edition games, as the upgrades for one like Kirby and the Forgotten Land will cost up to $20. The caveats to all of this is that the Digital Deluxe Edition will only be available for Switch, not Switch 2, and that several Switch 1 games are getting free upgrades for Nintendo’s new console.
