List of all Nintendo Switch 2 games with a game-key card release

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.

The Buster Sword is one of the most iconic weapons in video game history, but in Final Fantasy 7 Remake, Square Enix was considering a different direction.
Co-director Naoki Hamaguchi shared the news in a recent interview. It was explained that with Cloud swinging the sword around with one hand, it “sort of felt like it would weaken the sense of realism”. However, Square Enix ultimately believed that fans “wouldn’t accept”

Pokemon Legends: Z-A – Mega Dimension review

System: Switch 2 (reviewed), Switch
Release date: December 9, 2025
Developer: Game Freak
Publisher: Nintendo
To differing extents, every new Pokemon release is met with some level of scrutiny. For Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, this scrutiny was completely understandable – the game launched in a buggy, laggy state, and it remains that way on standard Nintendo Switch consoles. Thankfully, Pokemon Legends: Z-A’s launch generally went over much smoother with hardcore Pokemon fans. While it isn’t perfect by any means (check out my review for more info), it’s a solid entry that will no doubt please anyone who enjoyed Pokemon Legends: Arceus. Now, Pokemon Legends: Z-A has received its corresponding DLC pack just two months after launch. And it’s very easy to sum up: if you liked Pokemon Legends: Z-A’s base game, you’ll like the DLC. If you didn’t care much for the base game, Mega Dimension won’t win you over.
