Meanwhile, download cards spotted in Japan state that the game&#8217;s file size is slightly larger than the eShop listing at <strong>44GB<\/strong>, as covered by <a href=\"https:\/\/twistedvoxel.com\/hyrule-warriors-age-of-imprisonment-file-size-revealed-4-times-the-size-of-age-of-calamity\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Twisted Voxel<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>It seems reasonable to assume, then, that you&#8217;re going to need around 40 &#8211; 45GB of free space in order to download the game. Those opting for a physical copy, however, need not worry. Age of Imprisonment is published by Nintendo in the west, which means the cartridge will include the full game.<\/p>\n<p>Third-party publishers have largely been opting for Game-Key Cards for their Switch 2 games, which requires users to download the title from the eShop while inserting what is effectively a blank cartridge into the console itself. It&#8217;s been met with considerably negative reception from passionate gaming fans.<\/p>\n<p>Whichever option you go for, it&#8217;s looking like Age of Imprisonment will be a worthy spin-off of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/nintendo-switch-2\/legend-of-zelda-tears-of-the-kingdom-nintendo-switch-2-edition\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom<\/a>. A recent trailer showcased some key characters alongside some slick action gameplay, and it&#8217;s looking pretty cool so far.<\/p>\n<p>Will you be picking up Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment on the Switch 2?
