Metroid Ravenous on Switch 2: file size and cartridge format
Metroid Ravenous is a Nintendo-published Switch 2 game with a release date of January 28, 2027. As with Nintendo's own releases, the physical version has the full game on the cartridge, so you can play it without a download. The 20.2 GB size is from the pre-release eShop listing and may change before launch; it is a medium-sized install that will fit easily next to other games on the 256 GB console. Nintendo has not announced resolution or frame rate yet. We will add sourced figures once they are published, and update the size once the final listing is live. The eShop lists 13 languages, including Spanish.
