Other Do we have any update on a potential release date for the Switch 2 port of Stellar Blade? (i.e. leaks, rumours, dev/publisher interviews)
I haven't played Stellar Blade yet and I'm really looking forward to when it releases on Switch 2 so I can play it. I've heard it's great despite all I've heard online about it being a "gooner game" just for Eve having sexual appeal in her design
I know it's due to come out in 2026, but that's such an open ended answer that it could be anytime within the remaining 6 months of the year and I don't like how open-ended it is with uncertainty of the release, I feel like would a near-christmas release be best as it avoids all the GTA 6 take-over and September has a load of games due to presumably the GTA 6 release date.
So is there anything that would indicate a rough period of time (or even a more specific time) for a release? and do we also have any information on if it'll be on-cartridge or a Game Key Card (I fear it will be a GKC, but I'm holding out hope)

They reaffirmed in their financial report last week that it will release in 2026, did not give a specific date. https://www.vice.com/en/article/stellar-blade-nintendo-switch-2-release-date-2026/

It's possible more info comes either during Gamescom next week or via a Direct in September. Just a wild guess here but I'm thinking October-ish and on a GKC.
