Switch 2 Games FAQ
There’s more to come with Switch 2’s library, but if you want some quick hits or answers, then have a look over some of the most frequently asked questions for the console.
How is third-party support for Switch 2?
At the moment, very strong!
FromSoftware is jumping on board with Switch 2, with not only Elden Ring: Tarnished Edition, but also The Duskbloods, a new Switch 2-exclusive multiplayer game from the celebrated makers of Dark Souls.
Elsewhere, Capcom bought Street Fighter 6, SEGA joined the party with the Switch 2-exclusive Yakuza 0: Director’s Cut (plus Kiwamis 1, 2, and 3) Ubisoft brought the underrated Star Wars Outlaws, and Madden returned to a Nintendo console for the first time in a long time. First Light 007, Cyberpunk 2077, Borderlands 4, Hades 2 – we could go on, but you can see the list above yourself!
Switch 2 may well be joining the “This is an Xbox” campaign, too, as Microsoft is bringing some of its games to the new console, including Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. Halo: Master Chief Collection and Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 are also rumoured, though unconfirmed.
When is the new 3D Mario coming out?
Umm… we hate to break it to you, but it hasn’t even been announced – yet!
We’re pretty sure we’ll hear about the next 3D Mario game in 2025, but right now, Super Mario Odyssey 2 is a distant dream. sigh. Donkey Kong Bananza is fantastic, though, and that was made by the same dev team.
That’s all the confirmed games for Switch 2 for now, but this list will be updated every time we add a new Switch 2 game/release date to our database.
It’s also worth remembering that Switch 2 has old games as well – it’s backwards compatible with the original Switch. So if you’re after a list of OG Switch release dates, we’ve got you covered there, too.
