The information was confirmed by Naoki Hamaguchi in an interview with Inverse:

We put a lot of our development resources into the optimization, and as a result of that, I think it’s a pretty great title that maximizes the Switch 2 specs. Also, I wanted to mention that at the end of the year, a demo is coming out for Switch 2 and Xbox. So players who might still be on the fence or unsure about playing, it’d be great for them to experience [the demo] and feel the full specs of these new consoles.
