Epic Mickey: Rebrushed Getting Free Switch 2 Upgrade for Existing Owners
THQ Nordic confirms that Switch owners of Epic Mickey: Rebrushed will receive a free upgrade to the Switch 2 version, applying to both digital and physical copies.

THQ Nordic has announced that existing owners of Epic Mickey: Rebrushed on Nintendo Switch will receive a free upgrade to the Switch 2 version when it launches next month.
The upgrade applies to both digital and physical owners. According to the official FAQ, the process is straightforward: Switch 1 owners should insert their cartridge into the Switch 2 and install the game, or download their digital version, then install the upgrade patch.
For physical cartridge owners, THQ Nordic notes that Epic Mickey: Rebrushed on Switch 2 will be available as a Game Key Card rather than a full cartridge. This distinction affects how physical copies are distributed on the new hardware.
Epic Mickey: Rebrushed launches for Switch 2 on 6 October 2026. The original Switch version remains playable on the new console, ensuring backward compatibility for players who want to revisit the game without purchasing it again.
