So far, the Nintendo Switch 2’s 2026 games lineup has been decent, if not spectacular. However, we are not even at the halfway point of the year, and the future is filled with big upcoming Switch 2 2026 games like Yoshi and the Mysterious Book and Splatoon Raiders. Games like The Duskbloods and Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave are also expected before the end of the year, although release dates have yet to be announced.
If you own a Switch 2, your calendar is relatively full, and things should only pick up from here on out. As it can be difficult to keep up with everything, this article seeks to simplify the process by maintaining a complete list of all the upcoming releases. What will be the biggest Switch 2 game of 2026? How about beyond that?
The upcoming Switch 2 games were added to the calendar on May 1, 2026: Disgaea Mayhem, Two Point Museum: Arty-Facts, The 7th Guest Remake, D-topia, Brigandine Abyss, Blood: Refreshed Supply, Sektori, Stray, Police Simulator: Patrol Officers, to a T, Splatoon Raiders, The Prince of Tennis Doki Doki Survival ~eternal passion! Tie break game~, Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero – Super Limit-Breaking NEO, Digimon Story Time Stranger – Additional Digimon & Episode Pack 1: Alternate Dimension, Digimon Story Time Stranger – Additional Digimon & Episode Pack 2: GAKU-RAN, Dave the Diver: Complete Edition, Memory of Memorie: A Chill Story, The Necromancer’s Tale, Colorbound, The Player Who Can’t Level Up.
May 2026 Switch 2 Games Release Dates
Yoshi, Lego Batman, Indiana Jones, & More
May should really be a great month for Nintendo Switch 2 owners, and it contains arguably the first truly massive exclusive of the year: Yoshi and the Mysterious Book. The side-scrolling platformer should offer great fun for children and older players alike.
For third-party games, May has a few highlights. 007 First Light is the first James Bond adventure in a long time, and it seems set to be one of the more ambitious and, hopefully, best entries. Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight will be a celebration of everything Bruce Wayne, taking inspiration from the comics, movies, and games. The month will also see Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, Tales of Arise, and Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP make their debuts.

June 2026 Switch 2 Games Release Dates
Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, Denshattack, & More
Building on a solid May 2026 lineup, the Switch 2’s June 2026 games should be quite good, and things start with a bang thanks to Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. Square Enix’s open-world RPG has been out for a long time by this point, but its Nintendo debut is still a massive deal as a statement of intent. Unlike its predecessor, the Switch 2 can and will run huge third-party games that require quite formidable hardware.
The rest of the month is far from bad, either. The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales is another Square Enix JRPG that looks pretty darn good, and it also features real-time combat. This is an HD-2D game, so it is still different enough from FF7 Rebirth. Denshattack! seems to be absurd in the best possible way, and Solarpunk should offer a relaxing escape from reality.

Pokemon, Fire Emblem, Duskbloods, Elden Ring, & More
As the Switch 2 is still so young and filled with life, the future is both bright and somewhat unfocused. We know some of the big Switch 2 games that will launch over the next year or two, with games like The Duskbloods likely to drop in 2026. However, there is still so much we don’t know. When will the first proper The Legend of Zelda arrive? How about a 3D Mario? They will happen, but we don’t know when or how.
Pokemon Winds & Waves is confirmed to be in development, while FromSoftware’s The Duskbloods should be a Switch 2 exclusive. Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave should be coming in 2026, too.
