Out of all of the Switch 2 launch games, CD Projekt Red's port of Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition is perhaps the most impressive feat on the platform. I started playing the game on PS5 Pro earlier this year, and continuing my playthrough on the Nintendo Switch 2 has really set in stone how much of an uncompromised version it is. CD Projekt Red has released a blog post, talking about how the studio made the Switch 2 version of Cyberpunk a reality.
One of the defining features of Cyberpunk 2077 on Switch 2 is how it uses the console hardware to its advantage. You have access to the touch screen for menu navigation, gyro and mouse controls for more precise aiming, and full-blown motion controls; so you can pretend we lived in a universe where Cyberpunk came out for the Wii when you waggle to swing a melee weapon or bring a JoyCon up to your face to heal.
