Co-Op RPG 'Nicktoons & The Dice Of Destiny' Scores Free Switch 2 Upgrade Next Month

You want to know what's better than 30fps?

by Jim Norman Mon 3rd Nov 2025

GameMill Entertainment has today announced that the family-friendly co-op RPG Nicktoons & The Dice of Destiny will be landing a free Switch 2 upgrade on 5th December.

The Switch 2 version will run at 60fps, with a crisp 1240p resolution. There's a bunch of other visual good stuff to look out for too, including improved anti-aliasing, particle effects, lighting and more.

All those with the Switch 1 version of the game (which launched back in September), can upgrade to the Switch 2 version completely free. Alternatively, the full Switch 2 edition will be available on the Switch eShop for £39.99 / €49.99, or physically via a Game-Key Card.

Here are some screenshots of the Switch 2 version in action:

If this one hasn't entered your sphere yet, the Dice of Destiny is an ARPG inspired by fantasy tabletop adventures. You'll put together a band of familiar Nickelodeon faces like SpongeBob, Danny Phantom, Jimmy Neutron, Susie Carmichael or Katara, and use each character's special skills to take out enemies in a magical land.

There's every chance that this one slipped under the radar for you back in a busy September period, and the new early-December release date falls in an equally jam-packed week, but hey, at least it gives everyone another chance to check it out.

Will you be trying this one out on Switch 2? Let us know in the comments.

Jim came to Nintendo Life in 2022 and, despite his insistence that The Minish Cap is the best Zelda game and his unwavering love for the Star Wars prequels (yes, really), he has continued to write news and features on the site ever since.

"All those with the Switch 1 version of the game (which launched back in September), can upgrade to the Switch 2 version completely free."

Wish more publishers were doing this. I'd be fine with paying a $5-20 fee for it if it didn't mean having to rebuy the full game with no save data transfer.

Yikes!
No thanks, game key card. 🙄
I will choose PS5 version instead.

Nice, looking forward to giving this game a try even more than I already was when I can - have seen/heard elsewhere that it's an overall good if not even better game and that's of course what matters first and foremost, but I'll gladly take a Switch 2 upgrade and even more so a free one (by the way, yet again it's proven that a game being published by GameMill doesn't mean it will be automatically bad despite what some keep on claiming, obviously it depends also on other factors starting with the developers etc.)!

Perfect. 1239 would be too low, but 1241 is just too much for me. Nice to see they hit that sweet spot.

No interest in this game, but good on Game Mill for offering a free upgrade patch, something the major publishers seem very adverse to.

1240p? Is that a real thing or a typo?

Wonder just how the upgrade path will actually work? We know it's not in the same fashion as a "Nintendo Switch 2 Edition" deal, since those don't get game-key cards (they either get full-on-card physicals--ones that can also be played on the predecessor system at that--or else no dedicated Switch 2 physical at all)...Still, other publishers cough*Sega*cough*SquareEnix*cough should take note, given the amount of products being given no upgrade path whatsoever...

Great! Seriously more S1 publishers really need to upgrade their titles for S2.

@shiningpikablu252 Digital Eclipse and Atari are also doing the same "no upgrade path" garbage with the MK game collection and the remake of the System Shock game (even though the Switch 2 carts of those games are not GKCs at least). Not surprised
