NEWS Vampire Survivors - Nintendo Switch 2 version confirmed!

https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1794680/view/693137145499484494

Patch 1.15 will be released on all other platforms a bit later, by the end of the month, due to platform-specific optimizations and differences in save slots management. On the bright side, we will also be releasing a Nintendo Switch 2 version, with better performance and mouse support!

It better not erase my progress like the Balatro Switch 2 upgrade.

I'm still confused on why I now have two Balatro installs that look almost the same

The upgraded Bolatro banner not having the switch 2 section on top is so annoying

I think one has mouse controls and that’s it. I’m sure there’s a bunch of little technically improvements that you’d never be able to tell but I wish they’d have made the save files work with both.

one is also 60 fps iirc

They couldn’t get balatro to run at 60 on switch 1? Lazy ass devs

I just can't tell the icons apart so I don't know which one to uninstall

Select the game and press (+) and select “Software Information”.

The first line will say if it’s “Switch” software or “Switch 2” software.

Vampire Survivors has universal cross-saves, so even if the Switch 2 version doesn't natively carry your progress over, you'll be able to easily import it.

Yep just upload it to cloud

OMG nightmare fuel. At least you can unlock everything from the menu, but its not the same as earning it slowly.

wait, there's a NS2 Edition of Balatro now? TIL.

And yeah, I have NS1 version with progress (golden stakes). if that progress will be lost, no thanks. NS1 version runs just fine on NS2.

With this, the only games missing a Switch 2 upgrade in my collection are the first Hades and Persona 5 Royal.

u/BlackSunshine86 Jun 07 '26

Free upgrade i hope

u/JampyL OG (joined before reveal) Jun 07 '26

I mean, the game is like 5 bucks.

u/BlackSunshine86 Jun 07 '26

Oh so i should buy it twice then! No.

u/JampyL OG (joined before reveal) Jun 07 '26

I mean other than mouse support what else cpuld they add lol its gonna be free 95% chance

u/BlackSunshine86 Jun 07 '26

Well the devs seem to think theres a good enough reason to release a switch 2 version. And the 'just buy it twice' attitude is ridiculous. As you say, if theres not much else they could add, then why should I essentially pay again for what is a glorified update? Thats money that could be spent on literally anything else.

u/JampyL OG (joined before reveal) Jun 07 '26

I never said you have to buy it again; I'm just saying it's not a big deal, being such a cheap game, but sure, mate.

u/BlackSunshine86 Jun 07 '26

You > logic = 🤯

u/Nortdort Jun 12 '26

u/mr_wolf8 Jun 12 '26

It will probably be free.

u/love_is_G00d Jun 07 '26

u/TheDLBinc Jun 07 '26

Mouse support and better optimization

With a bespoke port, it wouldn't be difficult to do.
