Is there a physical edition of the Nintendo Switch version of No Man’s Sky?
It has been confirmed that there will be a physical edition of No Man’s Sky for both Nintendo Switch and PS5. At the time of writing, it is unclear if these physical editions will be released on October 7, the same day that the game arrives on Nintendo Switch, or after. However, it will likely be on the same day as many fans will be buying the physical edition instead of the digital version.
Is there a collector’s edition of No Man’s Sky on Nintendo Switch?

At the time of this writing, there have been no confirmed collector’s editions or anything other than the standard physical release that most Nintendo Switch games get. When No Man’s Sky was initially released, it had two Collector’s Editions, but shipping problems caused one of them to be long delayed. If a premium version of the game does arrive for Nintendo Switch, it will likely be announced closer to the port’s release date.
Is No Man’s Sky on Nintendo Switch a native port or a cloud version?

It’s hard to say whether or not No Man’s Sky will be a native Nintendo Switch version or a cloud version. At the time of this writing, none of the marketing materials have pointed to a cloud version, but considering most Nintendo Switch owners don’t like the idea of cloud versions, no it’s amazing. A quick check on the Nintendo eShop shows that all cloud versions are labeled as such. So the fact that no one added the words “might version” to the end of No Man’s Sky Nintendo Switch Edition leads us to believe that it is a native port.
