Nintendo is starting 2026 with a packed Switch 2 schedule. There are new versions of old favorites, new games, and some long projects finally coming into shape. Many titles have already been confirmed, and more are scheduled across the year. If you just purchased a Switch 2, you will not be short on games.
The next generation of Nintendo hardware is here, and the company is not waiting around. Many large names are landing early, instead of timely releasing throughout the year. That means a lot of choices for players from January.
You can see all confirmed games so far, first by exact release date, then by planned window.
