How far away are we from seeing games like Horizon: Zero Dawn and Spiderman 2018 on Switch/Switch 2?

IF the Switch 2 gets 12 GB Unified RAM, it will need some of that for the OS and some for the non-graphic parts of a game. Don't expect more than 8 GB usable for graphics.

Already more than 60% of the gaming PCs have 8 GB VRAM and above. Until the Switch 2 launches, this percentage will grow further.

Source for that number. The top 8 GPUs on Steam are mostly all lower end GPUs that generally ship with 6-8GB of RAM. In order it's the RTX 3060, GTX 1650, 3060 Ti, RTX 2060, 3070, GTX 1060, Laptop 3060, RTX 3050 ... that's your top 8, most of those are shipping with 6GB-8GB. 

Fact of the matter is most developers are going to be stuck supporting the XBox Series S for the rest off the generation no matter what, so 8GB of VRAM is going to have to do for the majority of games (things like GTAVI included). 

All those cards have 2x to 3x the memory bandwidth, assuming the S2 hits the max.

6 gb at 224 gb/s is going to smoke 8 gb at 112 gb/s.
