Fantasy Life i on Switch 2 will feature faster load times, improved graphics, and improved frame rate. So, while the content in the game will be identical to the Switch 1 release, those that pick up Fantasy Life i's native Switch 2 version can look forward to an overall better experience compared to the Switch 1 counterpart. Those that already own Fantasy Life i on Switch 1 can take advantage of a $2.59 upgrade path when the Switch 2 version launches on June 5.

The Switch 2 launch lineup is looking incredibly diverse, and it will be interesting to see if anything else is added to it between now and June 5. There are rumors that a Nintendo Direct may be happening soon, but it's unclear if it will take place before or after the Switch 2's June 5 release date.
