With some Switch games in the past, we’ve seen that an extra download is required for their physical versions. L.A. Noire was one example of this. That title needed an additional download, as the full experience wouldn’t fit on an SD card.

Here’s a look at the updated boxart:

Back in February, Bethesda and Panic Button updated the Switch version of Doom. One of the highlights was an additional control scheme, allowing players to take advantage of gyro motion aiming.
Wolfenstein II is another first-person shooter Bethesda and Panic Button are bringing to Switch. Fans will be happy to hear that the optional gyro motion aiming will be making a return. Even better, it will be there from the start, so we won’t have to wait for an update to add in the feature.
