• Q: What is the difference between getting a physical and digital version of this game? I am planning to get a switch lite and this game, but the physical version is sold out, what does it mean by digital? (2 answers)

  A: A digital version will require an internet connection so it can be downloaded onto your Switch the first time you play. It's linked to your Nintendo account so if you loose/break your Switch you can always re-download it later. There is no physical case/game when buying digitally and if you get tired of the game it's impossible to sell a digital copy. I hope that helps!
