As well as playing nearly all games for the original console, the next Nintendo system will have its own tailor-made Switch 2 games you can't play anywhere else, alongside all the multiplatform releases and ports.

So, in order to both guide you and to stoke the internal hype fires even further (as if that were possible), we've put together this handy quick list of all Switch 2-exclusive games that have been announced thus far.

And beneath the list, you'll find some extra details for all the ones announced prior to launch, too. Let's go!

Every video game release exclusive to the Nintendo Switch 2 - Full List

Here's a list of every Switch 2 exclusive, in alphabetical order:

Looking for a little more info, some trailers and the like for some of the unreleased ones? We're happy to oblige.

Star Fox (25th June 2026)

In 2026, Fox, Falco, Peppy, and Slippy are making their grand return on Switch 2. Yep, Star Fox is alive and well with a brand new game. Well, new reimagining.

Yes, this is Star Fox 64 again, but at its most beautiful, with new challenges, modes, difficulties, and multiplayer options. And AR filters, if that's your thing. We don't have long to wait for this one at all.

Splatoon Raiders (23rd July 2026)

Of course Splatoon is coming to Switch 2, but it's coming with a big twist. Splatoon Raiders looks to be a more single-player-focused entry as opposed to the usual multiplayer madness that we're used to.

We know that we'll be playing as the 'Mechanic' and teaming up with Splatoon 3's Deep Cut, but we'll find out more in July.

The Duskbloods (TBC 2026)

FromSoftware dropping what looked like Bloodborne 2 for a second, and a Switch 2 exclusive no less? Did anyone else almost faint?

The Duskbloods is a PvPvE game from the creators of the Soulslike genre, and even though the idea of multiplayer does put us off a little - we are gonna put our trust in the team, we know they can create magic, come up with unique new mechanics, and utilise online aspects in very clever ways...so we are psyched.

And what a boon for the console, to have such a prestige and "grown-up" exclusive to add to its lineup almost straight away.
