Following the launch of Nintendo Switch 2, we’re putting together a complete list of Nintendo Switch 2 games with a game-key card release.
This is a new approach to physical media, which has seen a mixed reaction. In a way, it’s a hybrid between a true physical release and a download code. Each box comes with a cartridge, but there’s nothing really included. Rather than coming with all content, you’ll need to download the game first. After that you don’t need to connect online, but you need to insert the card each time you play.
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.
Thousands of games are currently available on Switch, and there are a ton of demos out there for many of them. Not just Nintendo, but also third-parties are offering demos. We’ve now put together a comprehensive list of what’s out there.
Since our reader base is English-speaking, that’s what we’re focusing on here. In other words, we’re highlighting Switch demos that you can find in North America and Europe. Japan has a few extra demos on its end, but a majority of them are for titles that are not currently being sold in the west and are only playable in Japanese.
December 10: Limited Run Games has revealed its latest classic title for Nintendo Switch, which is Jaws: Retro Edition. The company hasn’t confirmed launch timing presently.
This marks the return of the original NES game. On top of that, it looks like we’re getting a brand new “Enhanced Version” containing extra content.
Here are all of the notable details:
Astrolabe Games rolled out the latest information about BlazBlue Entropy Effect X, covering the game’s characters and voice cast while also sharing a new story trailer.
The game features the return of iconic characters from the BlazBlue series, but in a different way with their original voice actors reprising their roles. A new storyline was made by the original scenario writers that introduces five brand-new characters. The game draws players into the mysterious Sea of Possibility, inviting them to embark on a completely new adventure in a desperate fight to save the world.
Here’s the latest information batch:
Gameloft is preparing the next update for Disney Dreamlight Valley, which is known as “Puppy Love”. It will be available on February 11, 2026.
In a new Realm, the update lets players meet the Lady and the Tramp from Disney’s Lady and the Tramp. There’s also a new Star Path, return of the Eggstravaganza Event, improvements, and fixes.
Below is the full rundown:
System: Switch 2
Release date: February 12, 2026
Developer: RGG Studio
Publisher: SEGA
With Nintendo now a certified home for the Yakuza/Like A Dragon franchise following the releases of Yakuza 0 Director’s Cut, Kiwami and Kiwami 2, Switch 2 players get to experience a new adventure in the series day-and-date with other console users for the first time. This is thanks to RGG’s latest remake title Yakuza Kiwami 3 & Dark Ties, a shiny new version of the early PS3 title Yakuza 3 with a brand new campaign added onto the package. Seen as a bit of a black sheep in the franchise for taking a less action-focused story in favor of a slower, more character driven plot, for me personally it is my favorite entry. The reaction to the announcement of this remake was mixed to say the least, but I was super excited to play a cleaner, more polished version of a game I was already fond of. There’s quite a lot to unpack here, so let’s start with the plot.
October 27: Incantation has been announced for Nintendo Switch not only as a digital release, but also physical. The game is slated for Q1 2026.
Incantation is a first-person horror adventure game. You’ll play as a mother searching for her lost daughter, and after stumbling into a strange cult village, you’ll piece together the whereabouts of your loved one.
Additional details can be found in the following overview:
Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection has been given a new graphics comparison video for its Nintendo Switch 2, Xbox Series S, and PS5 versions. This is based on the new demo that just debuted a few days ago.
Right now the main concern with the Nintendo Switch 2 version is the game’s frame rate. Performance isn’t a massive issue when docked, but in portable mode, there are more drops below 30 FPS – hopefully a patch will tidy things up. It is worth noting that on Nintendo Switch 2, the frame rate is more stable compared to Xbox Series S when docked. The frame rate isn’t really perfect on any platform due to a lack of a cap.
