Factorio Set to Launch on Nintendo Switch 2 with Free Upgrade for Existing Owners

The team at Wube Software has announced that their production simulator, Factorio, will be released on the Nintendo Switch 2. Owners of the original Switch version will receive a complimentary upgrade.

The developers highlight several features of the Switch 2 edition:

Wube has not yet disclosed the launch date for the Nintendo Switch 2 Edition. Certification processes and the creation of the game store page can take substantial time, which is why the team is holding off on the announcement. The projected release window is December.

In addition to the base Factorio, the hybrid console will also receive the expansion Space Age. This expansion will not differ in content from the PC version, as the developers have not had to remove or reduce any materials. The expansion will be priced at $35.
