Buying PS5 and Nintendo Switch games in French isn’t just about comparing a cover and a price. Between European editions, cartridges that don’t contain the full game, download codes and differences in dubbing, a product listing can hold a few surprises.
To avoid ordering the wrong thing, check the platform, format, languages actually available and the PEGI rating. Here are the essential points for choosing a French PS5 game, a French Nintendo Switch game or a French Switch 2 game that suits your habits.
This mention can simply refer to a box, subtitles or an interface in French. It doesn’t necessarily guarantee French audio. Stupid Never Dies, for example, offers French subtitles but an English soundtrack. Conversely, some listings for Harvest Moon Echoes of Teradea indicate French text and audio.
Before placing an order, look for the following information separately:
Physical video games now come in several forms. A Switch 2 box may contain a cartridge, but it could also contain only a download code. Red Dead Redemption - Code in Box - Switch 2 - French Version is clearly presented as a box with a code, with no cartridge included.
On PS5, a disc is generally supplied, but the game still needs to be installed on the console’s SSD. Some titles also require an internet connection for updates or online features. So check the mentions PS5 boxed games, “disc included”, “cartridge included” or “code in box”.
The PEGI rating tells you about the content and recommended age, not the difficulty of the game. A PEGI 16 title may contain violence or deal with dark themes, while a PEGI 18 game may feature intense horror, gore or language intended for an adult audience.
This check is particularly important for PS5 horror games, survival games and certain RPGs with mature storytelling.
Start by identifying your hardware precisely:
A PS5 disc won’t work on a console without a disc drive. Similarly, a Switch 2 cartridge shouldn’t be confused with a standard Nintendo Switch cartridge. The product listing must clearly state the platform and the media.
If you’re looking for a physical edition, check exactly what the box contains: disc, cartridge, booklet, map, SteelBook case, figurine or digital codes. A collector’s edition can perfectly combine several physical items while offering the game in the form of a code.
The format also affects resale and preservation. A disc or cartridge can be stored in its box and resold, whereas an already-used code doesn’t hold the same value for a collector.
Rely on the technical specifications rather than just the commercial title. Check the language, PEGI rating, number of players and any connection requirements. Dune: Awakening - Day One Edition is an open-world survival game that requires an internet connection and includes a code for additional content.
If you want to play offline, look for an explicit mention of a campaign that can be played without a connection. Similarly, to enjoy French dubbing, don’t just rely on the “French Version” mention: check the details of the voice acting and subtitles.

No. It may be limited to French text and menus. Check the line about audio or voices. Stupid Never Dies, for example, lists English audio with French subtitles.
Yes, in the vast majority of cases. The disc acts as a launch medium, but the data is installed on the console’s SSD. Some updates also require an internet connection.
Store the disc or cartridge in its box, away from moisture, heat and direct sunlight. Handle a disc by the edges and clean it with a soft cloth, from the centre outwards. For cartridges, make sure the contacts are kept clean and dry.
