We now have our hands on the Nintendo Switch 2, a new console from one of the biggest names in gaming. Alas, a new console is only as valuable as the library of games you can build on it.
Thankfully, Nintendo hasn't been shy about planned releases over the next year. In the second half of 2026, we'll be getting our hands on a mix of Switch 2 exclusives, third-party releases, and the benefit of backward compatibility with any games still launching on the original Switch. Without further ado, here are all of the new Switch 2 games we can look forward to in 2026 and beyond.
From the same creator as The Binding of Isaac, which is also making its way to Switch 2 later in the year, Mewgenics is a turn-based strategy game that’s all about breeding cats and battling nasty things. We gave it a very solid 9/10 when it first launched on PC earlier this year, saying it's "good for more than a hundred hours of roguelike runs." It also has some very catchy music.
The Switch 2 edition of Mewgenics will also be getting a physical cartridge release at some point in early 2027.
RuneScape got a bit of a makeover with this new open world crafting and survival game that was initially released last year, and is finally coming to Switch 2 this fall.
We finally have a release date for the next game in the Fire Emblem series, which already happens to be available to preorder. Here’s a snippet of what to expect from the official Nintendo listing: “Worthy fighters from all over the land have come to Dagsion, the capital city of the Dagdan Empire, to compete in the Heroic Games for the chance to win one wish. Among the combatants are four heroes tied to the fate of the world.” You can learn more about how the game balances those four heroes in our hands-on preview.
If you’re looking for a cozy platformer you can play with a friend, Trine 6 might have you covered. The latest side-scrolling sequel from FrozenByte is designed with co-op in mind, so you can test your friendship on movement combos and puzzles.
From Masato Kato, the writer behind Chrono Trigger, comes Another Eden Begins, a completely fresh RPG that takes you on a journey across the past, present, and future. Recruit companions from a roster of 18 characters to help you take down the Beast King and find your sister. This one’s got a whopping 10 endings on the menu, though I’m sure some of those are reserved for New Game+.
