The Sonic 2 Community's Cut mod, which includes widescreen, S2 2013 upgrades, and other features, has been ported to the Nintendo Switch using the Genesis Plus GX emulator. The mod can be downloaded as an emulator + patch and requires an original Sonic 2 ROM to function.

It's recommended to use the ROM included with the Steam release to ensure authenticity, and this project does not endorse piracy.

If you don't have access to the Steam version, you can place the ROM in the emulator directory as either "SONIC2_W.68K" or "rom.bin" for the Switch port.
