The improvements vary per game, but they include things like optimizing visuals for the Switch 2\u2019s larger screen, better frame rates, HDR support, and GameShare support.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">The full list of games getting free updates is below, and you can see the specific updates <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendo.com\/us\/gaming-systems\/switch-2\/transfer-guide\/games-with-free-updates\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">on Nintendo\u2019s website<\/a>.
