Thanks to the continued partnership between LEGO and Nintendo, a new wave of sets have been revealed based on the Super Mario, Mario Kart, and Animal Crossing franchises. Everything shown today is coming this August.
Technically, no announcements have been made yet. However, as we’ve seen with past leaks, retailers have come through with the news a bit earlier than expected.
The full list of upcoming products is as follows:
For those looking for a complete list of all games included and supported in Nintendo Music, that’s where this post comes in.
Nintendo Music only came with a few songs at launch. However, since then, a few more have been added. Nintendo has also indicated that additional music is coming in the future. Currently it seems that we can expect at least one new title to be brought to the service each week.
Hibernian Workshop today fully unveiled a new Astral Ascent DLC / update known as “The Outer Reaches”. Nintendo Switch owners will have access soon.
For the paid DLC, players can access new worlds, a new boss battle, and more. New free content is also available with the imprint system and much more.
The full rundown is as follows:
April 2: Support for third-party Nintendo Switch 2 announcements continue, and we now know that Borderlands 4 is on the way. The game will be available later in 2025.
Borderlands 4 is a looter shooter in which players can take on outrageous enemies and acquire killer loot on the dangerous new planet of Kairos. The game features an arsenal of weaponry, the ability to glide, dodge, fixed-point grapple, and more.
The first My Nintendo reward of the Switch 2 generation is here with a new wristlet keychain.
If you’re a big fan of the upcoming console, this item is for you. The keychain features the iconic Nintendo Switch 2 logo. “The lanyard features a red wristlet designed for maximum comfort and functionality, making it a stylish accessory for any fan,” Nintendo also states.
Support for Shovel Knight Dig is wrapping up with the game set to receive its final major update known as “Wicked Wishes”, and we now have a release date. It’s scheduled for May 15, 2025 on Nintendo Switch.
Wicked Wishes brings along its own bosses, quests, secrets, and more. The team also rebalanced the algorithm while implementing over over 100 bug fixes, tweaks, and localization improvements.
Here’s a bit of additional information:
One of the more overlooked pieces of information we’ve received about Nintendo Switch 2 relates to the HD Rumble functionality on the new Joy-Con 2, which will be quieter compared to the previous version controllers.
Information about this was quietly included on the official website since the system’s reveal earlier in the month. It’s actually tucked away in a note about Everybody 1-2 Switch. It turns out that there’ll be a slight compatibility issue with that title due to the quieter HD Rumble on the new Joy-Con with a specific mini-game.
A note on the page states:
Battle Train will be making its way to Nintendo Switch on June 18th, 2025.
Battle Train is a roguelite deck-n-track builder that has players taking the role of contestants on a game show. They use cards to build up their bases and attack enemy structures, all through the connection of trains and tracks. The game is co-developed by Terrible Posture Games and Nerd Ninjas LLC, with Bandai Namco Entertainment publishing it.
Here’s some more information about the game:
January 28: Not one, but two classic Harvest Moon games have been announced for Nintendo Switch with The Lost Valley and Skytree Village on the way as part of Natsume’s Cozy Bundle. They’ll be available this summer.
Harvest Moon: The Lost Valley and Skytree Village previously debuted on Nintendo 3DS. For the Nintendo Switch versions, both games will be included on a single cartridge and with all DLC.
Below are overviews for both games:
After its previous digital debut, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Splintered Fate is now getting a physical release on Nintendo Switch. The launch is planned for August 26, 2025.
