The February 2026 Nintendo Direct: Partner Showcase is starting in just a bit, and for those looking to tune in, we have the live stream. It begins at 6 AM PT / 9 AM ET / 2 PM in the UK / 3 PM in Europe. As previously announced, the presentation will be roughly 30 minutes long.
As this is a Partner Showcase, we’ll mostly be hearing out third-party games. A Nintendo-published game or two could slip in, but don’t expect to see the next big 3D Mario or Zelda here.
We seemingly have release dates for not one, but two upcoming Xbox-related Nintendo Switch 2 games.
Deallabs, which has previously shared correct information about launch timing prior to announcements, says that Fallout 4 Anniversary Edition is slated for April 28, 2026 with a download code in stores (no full cartridge or even a game-key card). Indiana Jones and The Great Circle will follow on May 12.
December 15: Team Cherry will be releasing a new Nintendo Switch 2 Edition for the original Hollow Knight, the studio has announced. Fans can expect to see it in 2026. If you have the game on Nintendo Switch, it’ll be a free upgrade.
Hollow Knight – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition will contain all the updates and enhancements that Silksong received on the platform. That means it’ll offer high frame-rate modes, higher resolutions, and many additional graphical effects.
For details about the game itself, check out the following Nintendo eShop description:
Dragon Quest 7 Reimagined is ready to launch, and we have a new trailer to celebrate. This marks the return of Square Enix’s classic RPG.
All of the important details can be found in the following rundown:
Another update for Splatoon 3 is about to arrive with version 11.0.1. The patch should be available today.
With this update, Nintendo is looking to address a few specific issues. The company is addressing a few things with controls / multiplayer.
The full rundown is as follows:
Thanks to publisher Kitfox Games and developer Freehold Games, we have the release date for Caves of Qud on Nintendo Switch. It’ll be out on February 16, 2026.
Caves of Qud was confirmed for Nintendo’s older system last summer and was planned to launch at the end of the year. However, it ended up being pushed back – it was most recently scheduled for last month, but suffered another small delay.
For those that need a refresher, here’s some information about the title:
Metroid Prime 4: Beyond has sold over one million copies, Nintendo has confirmed.
This week, the company reported its latest financial results. Some new games made Nintendo’s latest million sellers, but Metroid Prime 4 was nowhere to be seen. That led to some concerns significantly underperforming. We don’t have an exact number, but we can safely say it’s over one million when combining both versions (Nintendo Switch 2 and Switch).
Today, O. and Co. Games announced that it will be bringing TetherGeist to Nintendo Switch. Launch timing has yet to be decided.
TetherGeist is a wholesome precision platformer in which players guide Mae and her axolotl spirit Bao on a coming-of-age pilgrimage through a mysterious world. Players will need to master tight controls with Astral Projection to overcome challenges and discover that curiosity and perseverance are rewarded.
