In <strong>Nintendo Switch<\/strong> this ceiling is the lowest; in <strong>Switch 2<\/strong> and <strong>PS4<\/strong> is higher; and in <strong>PC<\/strong>, <strong>PS5<\/strong> e <strong>Xbox Series X|S<\/strong> you will have <strong>more space<\/strong> (there is no upgrade from the Switch version to Switch 2).
