The Nintendo Switch 2 launched on June 5, 2025 at $449.99, and eight months later, the game library has grown to over 323 confirmed titles. Whether you just picked one up or you’re still deciding, here’s every major game confirmed for the platform in 2026 — organized by exclusives and notable third-party releases.

What to Watch For
The Switch 2’s first-party lineup is strong, but it’s the third-party support that’s the real story. Having Cyberpunk, Resident Evil, and Elden Ring on a Nintendo handheld would have been unthinkable a few years ago. With a Nintendo Treehouse Live airing on February 24 and a Pokemon Presents on February 27, expect more announcements soon.
