Starfield, Diablo 4 and Halo: The Master Chief Collection Are Being Ported to Switch 2 – Rumour

Rumours about other games coming to the Switch 2 have also been going around, including a port of Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater. Ubisoft is also seemingly working on a host of Switch 2 ports for its titles, including heavy hitters like Assassin’s Creed Mirage and the upcoming Assassin’s Creed Shadows.
