The gaming community is buzzing with excitement over the latest leaks and rumors surrounding Ubisoft's plans for the Nintendo Switch 2. Although Nintendo has yet to officially unveil the Switch 2, anticipation is high, and it's widely speculated that the console will be announced soon. Given Ubisoft's long-standing relationship with Nintendo, it's no surprise that the company is expected to bring a significant lineup of games to the new platform.
Ubisoft has a history of strong support for Nintendo's consoles, including releasing timed exclusives and collaborating on various projects. This tradition appears set to continue with the Switch 2, as the latest leaks suggest Ubisoft is preparing an impressive array of titles for the console's launch and beyond.
Leaker Nate the Hate has shared insights into Ubisoft's ambitious plans for the Switch 2. According to a recent video, Assassin's Creed Mirage is expected to be available within the launch window of the Switch 2, potentially arriving by the end of the year. Assassin's Creed Shadows is also slated for the Switch 2, though it will not be part of the initial launch. Other anticipated titles include Rainbow Six Siege, The Division series, and a potential Mario Rabbids collection featuring both Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle and Sparks of Hope. In total, Nate the Hate predicts that "more than half a dozen" Ubisoft games will be available on the Switch 2, primarily through ports.

These leaks are not the first indication of Ubisoft's interest in the Switch 2. A previous leak from last year mentioned multiple Assassin's Creed titles, including Mirage and Shadows, alongside Valhalla, Odyssey, and Origins, planned for the new console.
It's important to note that the Switch 2 is expected to be backward compatible, providing immediate access to a vast library of Ubisoft games, including Assassin's Creed Odyssey. If the rumors about Ubisoft's extensive plans for the Switch 2 hold true, the console could become an excellent choice for fans of the Assassin's Creed series looking to enjoy these games on the go.
Given Ubisoft's history of robust support for Nintendo platforms, such as the Wii U, it's not surprising that they would continue this trend with the Switch 2. With the new console poised to be a major success, it's a strategic move for publishers like Ubisoft to prepare a strong lineup of games for its launch.
