Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus

Wolfenstein II - Nintendo Switch

Bethesda has a little something special planned for Wolfenstein II on Switch. When the game debuts next month, fans will be able to get their hands on an extra game sleeve with alternate artwork.

Simply visit your local GameStop on the June 29 launch day. If you stop by the store, you can pick up the sleeve without even making a purchase. It’ll be available while supplies last.

When the file size for Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus was first added to the Switch eShop, it clocked in at 13.7GB. It looks like it’ll actually take up quite a bit more space than that.

Wolfenstein II’s eShop listing has been updated, and now has a notice stating that at least 23GB of free space will be required upon release. It’s unclear why the actual size is still listed at 13.7GB, but be prepared to have another 10GB of space ready.

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.

Wolfenstein II is another upcoming game that will have the same requirement. Amazon’s product page has an updated boxart image, complete with the warning header we’ve come to know and love. It clearly states that an internet download is required.

Here’s a look at the updated boxart:

On Twitter recently, Bethesda’s Spanish account was asked whether Wolfenstein II on Switch will have the included DLC. The company said in response that it has “nothing to share at the moment”.

Bethesda also commented on its work on Wolfenstein II for Switch in general. Currently the team is “focusing on polishing the base game and optimizing it” to achieve the performance we saw with DOOM.

Earlier today, Bethesda confirmed that Wolfenstein II will feature optional gyro motion controls on Switch. GameXplain now has another look at the game with the functionality enabled in handheld mode. Watch the footage below.

More footage has emerged from the Switch version of Wolfenstein II. Take a look at 19 minutes of gameplay below.

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.

Here’s the confirmation from Wolfenstein’s Twitter account:
