Annapurna Interactive has begun rolling out Nintendo Switch 2 Editions for two of its published titles, Sayonara Wild Hearts and Lorelei and the Laser Eyes.
The publisher made the refreshed editions available in Japan first, with the releases expected to reach additional regions shortly.
These updates focus on enhanced performance for Nintendo’s next-generation handheld-docked hybrid hardware, bringing higher frame rates and multiple docked resolution options.
According to the update notes distributed with the releases, Sayonara Wild Hearts receives a new Remix Arcade mode that tasks players with chasing high scores in an arcade-style loop.
Technical details supplied for both titles position the Nintendo Switch 2 Editions as clear performance upgrades: handheld play targets 1080p at 120 frames per second, while docked modes offer 1440p at 120 FPS or an upscaled 4K option capped at 60 FPS.
Annapurna’s regional release messaging states the updated editions are visible in the Japanese storefront initially and should appear in other territories in the following day, indicating a staggered digital rollout across the Nintendo eShop.
Sayonara Wild Hearts — Originally developed by Simogo and published by Annapurna Interactive, Sayonara Wild Hearts is described as a dreamy, pop-infused arcade experience.
Players move through fast-paced segments that mix motorcycle riding, skateboarding, rhythm-driven combat, laser shooting and swordplay.
The game’s narrative follows a young woman whose broken heart disturbs the balance of the universe; guided by a diamond butterfly, she encounters an alter ego known as The Fool and battles archetypal opponents—Little Death, Dancing Devils, Howling Moons, Stereo Lovers and Hermit 64—set to a custom pop soundtrack.
The new Remix Arcade mode focuses on score-chasing and replayability.
Lorelei and the Laser Eyes — Presented as a nonlinear mystery set inside an eerie, old hotel somewhere in central Europe, Lorelei and the Laser Eyes places players in a string of handcrafted puzzles and surreal illusions.
The updated Switch 2 Edition applies the same performance targets as Sayonara, with handheld 1080p/120 FPS and docked options of 1440p/120 FPS or 4K/60 FPS, aimed at smoother animations and more responsive puzzle interactions.
These Nintendo Switch 2 Editions mark Annapurna’s continued effort to optimize its catalog for Nintendo’s next hardware.
Players in regions outside Japan should watch their local Nintendo eShop listings for availability updates as the rollout completes.
