Spike Chunsoft announced that there will be another way to pick up and play Shuten Order, as the Switch and Switch 2 physical copies are on the way to retail stores. These will show up in Spring 2026, though there’s no exact release date yet. Preliminary box art for both versions are already available for the adventure game.
The announcement makes it look like the Switch 2 physical version of the game might involve the full game being on the cartridge. The box art shared by Spike Chunsoft doesn’t feature the telltale game-key card notice that appeared on other recent releases like Assassin’s Creed Shadows or Persona 3 Reload.
This comes a week after the Switch 2 Shuten Order version appeared. On November 27, 2025, Spike Chunsoft and Exnoa confirmed the update. If you have that version, you can use the Joy-Con 2 mouse controls to play sometimes and the FPS goes between 60-120. An upgrade pack is also available for the Switch version for $2.49.
The other major Tookyo Games title to appear in 2025 is The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy. Physical Switch copies of that already appeared, thanks to Marvelous and XSEED. There was even a limited edition release with acrylic standee, art book, and soundtrack.
Shuten Order is available on the Switch, Switch 2, and PC, and physical copies of the game will appear worldwide in Spring 2026.
