Fortnite Will be able to be played on Nintendo Switch 2, which means you can win a Victory Royale wherever you are. The game is currently in its sixth chapter and what we’ve heard of the next season of Fortnite Sounds actually very exciting.
Perhaps the most expected Switch 2 launch game Mario Kart World. Also for good reason, when we definitely got away impressed after spending some time with the game.

A Nintendo Switch 2 version of The tears of the kingdom Arriving on June 5 and promising upgraded visuals and performance. In Techradar’s Nintendo Switch 2 -Preview, Hardware Editor Rhys Wood had this to say about the new versions:
“To play it (Breath of the Wild) and The tears of the kingdom On a cliff solid 4K 60fps on console, it feels like it’s not real. But it’s on Switch 2. Both games also have drastically sharper image quality, which means they are definitely the final version of each release. “
We loved absolutely Street Fighter 6 On PS5, and it seems that we are in a similar experience on Switch 2. Techradar, it previously prevailed during our Switch 2 practical finding that “it maintained a solid 60fps throughout gameplay and felt like responsive (and loaded as quickly) as versions on these other systems.”
Deltarune releases its next two chapters along with a full release on Nintendo Switch 2. Under and contains a story that runs in parallel with 2015’s beloved cult -RPG.
Split fiction is one of our favorite games in 2025 so far, based on Team Hazellight’s previous titles to deliver a truly explosive co-op experience. In Techradar Gaming’s Split fiction Review, we said that “It packs a series of captivating mini -games in a linear, yet very rewarding platform game, laced with Hazelight’s trademark storytelling to keep you on your moral toes.”
Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour is essentially an interactive demo for the new console. It’s a great choice for the first game to play when your Nintendo Switch 2 has arrived but be aware that Nintendo is charging for Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour. A strange decision actually.
Civilization 7 make some bold changes to the tried -out formal, changes that we praised in our Civilization 7 Examination. It will also make use of Switch 2’s Joy-Con Mouse mode, which will definitely make it easier to play for fans of 4x strategy games.
Hitman World of Assassination Bundle the three most important Hitman games, their DLCs, as well as a whole pile of extra content. Nintendo Switch 2 gets a signature version that contains some cosmetics with Mario theme for those who pre-order the game.
Personally, I am very excited to take Hitman on the go in portable state. Being able to chip away in freelancer mode while commuting sounds like a dream, like trying time trial challenges for levels like Sapienza and Berlin Techno Club set “Apex Predator” mission.
