WILD HEARTS S on Switch 2: file size and cartridge format
WILD HEARTS S is KOEI TECMO's monster-hunting action game for Switch 2, released on July 25, 2025, at $49.99. It is a fairly large install at 33.4 GB, and the physical edition is a Game-Key Card, so you need that space free even if you buy the box. Hunting is built for co-op: it supports up to 4 players over local wireless and up to 4 online, with one console per player. KOEI TECMO has not published resolution or frame-rate targets, and the port does not hold a steady frame rate: Nintendo Insider found it can reach 60 FPS but dips below 30 FPS, and is a lot more playable docked than in handheld, where busy hunts feel choppy. The eShop lists 11 languages, including Spanish.
