Nintendo Australia’s Switch 2 description says the game features more than 700 vehicles across cars, bikes, planes, boats, and other types. Ubisoft’s broader current overview says the live game has more than 800 models from over 50 manufacturers. Those are publisher descriptions of the game, not a confirmed Switch 2 launch-day vehicle count; the live roster can change.
Download size, storage, and play modes
Nintendo Australia lists the game file at 58.5 GB and supports TV, tabletop, and handheld play. The file size is specific to that regional listing; check the Nintendo store page for your region for its current specification. You need enough free space on the console or compatible storage to install it, but a separate card is not automatically required if the console has sufficient space.

- Build whatever you can imagine in your own infinite world that’s unique in every playthrough.
Nintendo says Switch 2 supports microSD Express cards. If you need extra space, the card must use that format; a card is an optional storage expansion, not a universal requirement. Nintendo Australia’s Deluxe Edition listing also gives the 58.5 GB estimate and notes microSD Express compatibility.
Accounts, internet, and multiplayer
Nintendo Australia says a Ubisoft account and internet connection are required to play. Nintendo’s listing also says online play requires a paid Nintendo Switch Online membership. It lists local play for one player and online play for one to 32 players. These requirements and specifications are from Nintendo’s Australian listing; check your local listing for regional terms. Ubisoft likewise states that an online connection is required. Nintendo Australia’s Switch 2 product page

Regional listings and editions
Nintendo Australia lists 12 supported languages: Japanese, English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Korean, Russian, Simplified Chinese, Portuguese, Traditional Chinese, and Polish. Ratings, language details, availability, and account information can differ by region, so use the local Nintendo page when checking those specifics.
The Australian eShop lists a Deluxe Edition bundle with the base game and Fitted Ultimate Pack, which includes vehicle and cosmetic items. That is a regional digital listing and does not establish what is included in the physical edition or whether the same bundle is offered elsewhere. Ubisoft’s overview also describes current live-game content, including Year 4 additions and a Tomb Raider DLC pack, but it does not establish that every add-on or edition applies to the Switch 2 release in every region. Check the exact local product listing before purchasing an edition or add-on.
