Switch 2

We now have a first look at NBA 2K26 running on Nintendo Switch 2 on gameplay.

This is the first basketball effort on the new console from 2K and Visual Concepts. It was previously stated that this is the Gen 9 version – meaning Nintendo Switch 2 gets all of the bells and whistles as its PS5 and Xbox series counterparts.

The latest EDGE review scores for issue #415 (November 2025 issue) have now been released. Games reviewed this month include Shinobi: Art of Vengeance, Drag x Drive, and more.

Here’s the full roundup:

Like many games, Star Wars Outlaws’ physical release on Nintendo Switch is a game-key card. But now we get to hear directly from a developer about why that ended up happening.

Rob Bantin, the audio architect for Ubisoft’s Snowdrop engine, recently spoke about the situation on social media. In one post, Bantin noted that the “engine relies heavily on disk streaming for its open world environments, and Switch 2 cards didn’t give the performance needed for their quality target.” He went on to say that had Star Wars Outlaws been developed for Nintendo Switch 2 originally, “it might have been different.” Bantin added: “As it was, we’d build a game around the SSDs of the initial target platforms, and then the Switch 2 came along a while later. In this case I think our leadership made the right call.”

This week’s expanded Japanese software sales are as follows:

Dawnfolk

2024: Darenn Keller will be bringing the upcoming title Dawnfolk to Nintendo Switch, the developer has announced. The project is currently targeting an early 2025 launch.

Dawnfolk is a minimalist survival city-builder. Players will gather resources and rebuild their realm one tile at a time while protecting settlers from oppressive shadows.

Today was the launch for Hollow Knight: Silksong, and fans are already putting together comparisons for the Nintendo Switch 2 and Switch versions of the game.

It goes without saying, but Silksong is naturally a better experience on the new hardware – though that’s not taking anything away from Nintendo Switch 1. Still, on Nintendo Switch 2, you’re getting an enhanced technical experience. The new system supports a higher resolution and a frame rate up to 120 FPS. There’s also a bit more going on with the Nintendo Switch 2 version in general, though there’s not a massive difference. Other than that, loading times are shorter on Nintendo’s latest system.
