Nintendo Switch 2 file sizes: 55.8GB

Nintendo Everything on May 17 published a roundup of Nintendo eShop file sizes for newly listed Switch 2 and Switch games, citing storefront entries across North America, Europe and Japan. The biggest number in that list was 55.8GB for Bandai Namco's "Tales of Arise: Beyond the Dawn Edition" on Switch 2, alongside 20.6GB for Nintendo's "Yoshi and the Mysterious Book" and 2.6GB for "Bubsy 4D." Nintendo's own U.S. store pages separately show "Tales of Arise: Beyond the Dawn Edition" and "Yoshi and the Mysterious Book" as Switch 2 releases. The listings offer one of the clearest public looks so far at how large some third-party Switch 2 downloads may be. ### Which games showed up in the latest file-size roundup? Nintendo Everything's May 17 post listed several Switch 2 titles, led by "Tales of Arise: Beyond the Dawn Edition" at 55.8GB, "Yoshi and the Mysterious Book" at 20.6GB, "FZ: Formation Z" at 6.8GB, "R-Type Dimensions 3" at 2.7GB, "Bubsy 4D" at 2.6GB and "Coffee Talk Tokyo" at 489MB. The same post also included a separate group of standard Switch titles, where "Starbites" was listed at 9.1GB and a Switch version of "Bubsy 4D" appeared at 2.9GB. (nintendoeverything.com) The Nintendo Everything post said the information was pulled from eShop listings in North America, Europe and Japan. The site did not present the figures as internal Nintendo disclosures or publisher announcements, but as numbers visible through regional storefront listings. ### Why is the 55.8GB number drawing attention? (nintendoeverything.com) Bandai Namco's 55.8GB listing stands out because it is far above the other titles in the same May 17 roundup. Nintendo's U.S. store page for "Tales of Arise: Beyond the Dawn Edition" confirms the game is coming to Switch 2 and describes it as a package that includes the base game, the "Beyond the Dawn" scenario, and additional costumes and items. (nintendoeverything.com) The edition name matters because "Beyond the Dawn Edition" bundles more than the base role-playing game. Nintendo's store description says the package includes both "Tales of Arise" and the added scenario content, which helps explain why the Switch 2 download is larger than many other entries in the same listing. That connection is an inference from the contents Nintendo lists on the store page and the size reported from the eShop entry. (nintendoeverything.com) ### What do Nintendo's own store pages confirm? Nintendo's U.S. store page for "Yoshi and the Mysterious Book" says the game releases on May 21, 2026, and identifies it as a Switch 2 exclusive. The page describes a new Yoshi adventure centered on a talking book character named Mr. E. Nintendo's U.S. store page for "Tales of Arise: Beyond the Dawn Edition" also identifies that release as a Switch 2 version. (nintendo.com) The page does not surface the 55.8GB figure in the search result snippet returned here, but it does confirm the platform and bundled content. ### Did the roundup include both Switch 2 and original Switch entries? The May 17 roundup separated Switch 2 and Switch software, and some names appeared in both groups. "Bubsy 4D" was listed at 2.6GB for Switch 2 and 2.9GB for Switch, while "Coffee Talk Tokyo" appeared at 489MB for Switch 2 and 466MB for Switch. (nintendo.com 1) (nintendo.com 2) Those side-by-side entries show that file sizes do not always move in one direction between platforms. In this batch, "Tales of Arise" was the clear outlier on the high end, while other games were much smaller and, in some cases, slightly larger on the older Switch listing. ### Where can readers track the next updates? (nintendoeverything.com) Nintendo Everything's post remains the main published source for the May 17 file-size roundup, and Nintendo's official store pages provide the platform and release-page confirmations now visible for at least some of the games. Nintendo's U.S. store lists "Yoshi and the Mysterious Book" for May 21, 2026, giving readers a near-term date to watch for any updated storefront details, pricing or download information.
