Buying PS5 and Nintendo Switch games in French isn't just about comparing a cover and a price. Between imports, downloadable content and collector's editions, some listings can be unclear. A game described as "French" might only have translated menus, while a physical box could sometimes contain nothing more than a download code.
To avoid nasty surprises, three points are worth checking carefully:
The "French version" label should be verified directly on the product page. Look separately at:
For example, New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe – Switch – French Version is presented as a British import that can be played in French when the console is set to that language. This is particularly useful information for families who want a game that's immediately accessible.
On the other hand, some listings show conflicting information. Pokémon Legends: Z-A – Switch 2 – French Version mentions German in its technical specifications, even though the title says it's a French version. Before placing an order, check the most recent listing and, if necessary, look at the languages visible on the images or in the detailed description.
Physical video games are still practical for gifting, reselling or collecting. But you need to distinguish between the different formats:
Grand Theft Auto VI (Code in Box) – PS5 – French Version is a perfect example of the type of listing to check before buying: the box contains a download code, not a disc. You'll also need a PlayStation account registered in a compatible region and an internet connection to download the game.
The PEGI age rating doesn't measure a game's difficulty: it indicates its content and the recommended age. A PEGI 3 title can be suitable for family play, while a PEGI 18 game deals with adult themes.
The game mode is also worth a look: some titles are single-player only, while others offer local or online multiplayer. On Nintendo Switch, a Nintendo Switch Online subscription may be needed to play online. On PlayStation, also remember to check the available storage space, any required updates and the exact console model.
Nintendo Switch 2 games may offer different resolution, frame rates or content compared to their Nintendo Switch equivalents. Don't confuse a free upgrade, an enhanced edition and a game designed exclusively for the new console.
Why this suits this profile: its easy-to-learn controls and multiplayer modes make it a great starting point, especially for a family with a Nintendo Switch.
The listing clearly states it's an import that can be played in French via the console settings, rather than leaving any doubt about the available language.
164 levels advertised, up to four players and the Super Luigi U expansion included on the cartridge.
Why this suits this profile: this edition is aimed at collectors who want physical items to accompany a narrative action-RPG on PS5.
The contents are clearly detailed: disc, Steelbook case, world map, 23 cm figurine and a 60-page hardbound compendium.
A physical PS5 format, clearly identified collectibles and the Eclipse Edition digital content listed separately.
Why this suits this profile: its huge roster and local or online modes are ideal for players who want to play back-to-back matches and mix up the formats.
The listing clearly distinguishes between the cartridge game, local multiplayer for up to eight players and online play, which requires Nintendo Switch Online.
Over 70 fighters advertised, more than 100 stages and support for several controller configurations.
Whether you're looking for Pokémon games, a Mario game, an RPG, an adventure or a video game pre-order, always compare the format, the PEGI rating and what's actually included. Video game collector's editions can also contain codes that require an online account to use.
We've put together a comprehensive, real-time updated selection of products that meet these demanding criteria and European safety standards.
Check the technical specifications and look for separate information about menus, subtitles and voice acting. Setting your console to French may be enough to make some imported games playable in that language, but the listing should state this clearly.
No. A cartridge or disc can contain the main game. However, a connection may be needed to download an update, install additional data, access extra content or activate a code. Before ordering, read the section about the format carefully.
The standard edition usually contains just the game. A collector's edition adds physical or digital items: Steelbook, figurine, artbook, soundtrack or costumes. Check the full list of contents, because some bonuses need to be downloaded and may require an online account.
