Video: 20 Exciting New Games Coming To Nintendo Switch In October 2023

Great, great month with Mario, Pikachu, Sonic, Metal Gear, Batman and many índies. You just forgot to mention Dementium.

I might give the Batman Trilogy a try on Switch, but only because I don't give a lot about the other titles on this list.

Just Mario Wonder for me this month, I think. Already have the Arkham trilogy and Metal Gear Solid games on other platforms. I'll pick up Sonic at some point if it reviews well.

You left out an important one. https://www.nintendo.com/store/products/barbie-dreamhouse-adventures-switch/

October is usually so packed, it's the 'worse' month as you can't keep up.
I'm getting Batman but wish I had enough cash for Metal Gear, Red Dead Redemption and Fifa (can't remember the new name).

I want Detective Pikachu, but it comes out in four days (wow already!?) and I don't want to take on anything too long so I'm ready for Mario Wonder. Although, Wario Land 3 may not be the best substitute... (like Wario, it kinda stinks).

Do you guys plan to give the new harvest moon a deeper look? After years of stagnation it seems they finally worked on something "new" but before i drop 50€ i would be happy about some professional insight.

Hey Nintendo Life, I know I'm a little bit off topic but when will you be reviewing Cocoon? I played for a couple of hours and its pretty awesome!

What about Front Mission 2: Remake release?

I was considering Silent Hope, but it’s a “rogue-lite” described game, so I don’t know.
Also, with the surprise of sight of Cocoon, I may pick that up to balance out the heftiness of tasks in Fae Farm.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder, for sure!

Aside from that, I might pick up Detective Pikachu later on, but not at launch. Maybe Metal Gear Solid as well, depending on if I can find it for a good price. Otherwise don't see too much for me. Trip Works DX perhaps.

Sonic Superstars is preordered for multiple systems. I will definitely pick up Mario Wonder as well, though right now it's hard to concentrate on much beyond Sonic. I may wait a month or so for Mario to fully savour and enjoy Sonic first before getting consumed by another exciting release in a favourite series. I wish they were a bit more spaced out, I want to fully play and enjoy them both.

Mario Wonder of course! If Sonic is actually good, I’ll get it. Trip World I have ordered physically already. Wargroove 2 I’m just waiting to get it physical but I do want it. Detective pikachu and the sticker game look pretty neat but I’ll have to see how they are first.

I’m definitely getting Mario Wonder, Detective Pikachu & Sonic this month, but I ticked Batman too as I’ll pick it up in the future for sure, but I’m unsure whether to wait for a sale or not. I love Asylum & City, but I’ve played the Arkham games before, so the former three titles take precedence for me. MGS3 is a maybe, if there’s a future sale.

Can’t wait to see the complaints about Detective Pikachu’s graphics in a few days lol

Definitely Mario at release. And I'll probably get Sonic and Borderlands at some point in the near future. Waiting for a review on MGS.

I’m interested in Long Gone Days from what I’ve read about it so far. Suspect it’s going to get lost in the crowd a bit in that lineup though

Detective Pikachu Returns, Sonic Superstars and Super Mario Bros. Wonder please. I decided to spend more time with Tears Of The Kingdom, the game deserves it.

A great month for me. It never gets boring with the Switch.

Disgaea 7 and Mario Bros Wonder for me.
I'm curious about Silent Hope, but I don't expect I'll have the time. (I'm not going to have enough time for D7 either lol)
Outside of Switch, I want the new Assassin's Creed, but that's another one I bet I'll have to wait on.

Mario Wonder I’ve got pre-ordered through Best Buy’s buy 2 get 1 deal. Sonic SuperStars I’ll pick up once it gets a bit cheaper.

Eh, I have purchased 12 Wii games + 2 Wii U games + 1 PS2 game + 1 Switch game today so I will not pick any Switch games from the list above.

For me: Detective Pikachu Returns (Pre-Order). I loved the game on 3DS, and it looks like it's a faithful sequel to it. So.. I can't wait! It's already pre-loaded onto my Switch.

Super Mario Bros Wonder (Voucher; Pre-Order). It looks awesome. Just as good, or even better than the New Super Mario Bros line.

SMB Wonder, Sonic Superstars, and Gargoyles Remastered. I pick up Trip World DX and Detective Pikachu Returns eventually, and I have been hearing good things about Dave the Diver so I look into that game as well.

Definitely a 2D outing related to a certain plumber and pals. Possibly a terrific trilogy related to a cape crusader obsessed with clowns, supervillains, and Halloween too. Might wait for a sale with the latter.

Wow heavy month 😭

I’m on the fence about Metal Gear collection. Wish they’d included Twin Snakes instead, or retouched the PS1 version…

Already got Disgaea 7. Preordered SMBW, and definitely am tempted by Dave the Diver and Wargroove 2. Waiting on Det. Pikachu reviews, but will still wait on a sale for it probably.

I might get the MGS collection for the PS5 instead, but no rush on there as I still have my PS3 hooked up with the MGS HD collection. I will also say I’m very glad that they did NOT use Twin Snakes for the collection because that game is poop from a butt.

I have Super Mario Bros. Wonder pre-ordered. Waiting for reviews and the inevitable Black Friday price drop to decide on Sonic Superstars. Will need to try the demo for Arkham Asylum on PC and Dave the Diver on Switch to get a feel for whether or not I want those games. Family's also going to pick up The Jackbox Party Pack 10, so that'll be fun

I already plan on pre-ordering Super Mario Bros Wonder AND Sonic Superstars in one fell swoop.

I might be the only one but Gargoyles Remastered brings back old memories, I watched the show as a little kid.The only game from the list I plan to get.

The option "nothing for me in October" shouldn't even be there XD. If you don't like any of the games that are coming out this month, you definitely don't like videogames at all. What a month!

Very interested on how Silent Hope turns out.

i'll pick up mario down the road no need to buy a game that will always be there to buy later i always get the short supply and harder to find games first

Super Mario Bros Wonder for sure on day one. That game is a must. I'll get Sonic, Batman, and Metal Gear eventually too depending on how well the Switch versions run

Loads more adverts on the video than normal - or was it just me?

Wonder and Sonic for sure. I already have the MGS collection on PS3 and the whole thing isn't even on the cartridge if I wanted a portable version. Bummer.

Wargrooves 2 is a maybe I didn't play the first one though.

Tiny Sticker Tale, Detective Pikachu, Sonic, Mario and Dave the Diver are all on my list. Realistically though I’ll be waiting for a Sonic review and Pikachu is lower down the list as I still need to play the first one.

This month for games is too good! I need a lull so I can catch up!

A great year ends with a pretty slow period. Mario and nothing else, really (at least not for me it's great if you are waiting for something that will make you happy!).

I'm fine with this.

Insane month.

Already have physical RDR, Batman and Mario Wonder preordered. Sonic superstars and Detective Pikachu are maybes(depending on reviews/impressions). MGS, Wargroove, Gargoyles, Borderlands and Disgaea are also later pickups.

I'll eventually get Mario Wonder and maybe the Arkham collection if it goes on sale. But, I can only justify buying one game this month, and Spiderman 2 looks like it will be up there with TOTK in terms of quality.

Insane month in gaming though.

I’m trying to not spend money despite October being my bday month and this line up is making it difficult. But I have too much to play as is. Might get gargoyles though. Somebody play wargroove 2 in my honor please. Responsible adulting sucks.

Definitely without a doubt if I had to pick one game out of this list it would be MGS.
Sonic eventually (after it gets reviewed) and I have the trip world gbc cart preordered. I also want front mission 2, and Mario.

Of the 14 games listed, I put down 9 probable purchases.

With Arkham Trilogy delayed to December, I guess that's 8.

Very curious if the multiplayer in sonic will actually be good! Other than that… we’ll see about a sale for Mario.

Inspector Gadget: Mad Time Party
October 17th
Just saying.

Think if Wonders is truly something, it will probably end up under the Christmas tree.

Wow, a packed month. Out of the ones you have featured, 4 or 5 insta-buys and 2 maybe slightly later on and/or pending reviews.

Wonder & Wargroove 2 the highlights

Barring GTA type disasters, Batman Trilogy is another insta-download.

@Bobalina is it still being released on the 5th? or was it pushed back?

definitely river city, trip world dx, and wonder are on the list. borderlands 3 I'm curious the size of that game for the switch version. also not sure if front mission is still released on the 5th or not? they kind of dropped the ball a bit on the first one.

@Beefcakeyamato I can see it in preorder so I think nothing changed and game will be available tomorrow.

I think I've decided now... I'll be playing Sonic from Launch and saving Mario for Christmas.

@Bobalina thanks. yeah I seen that the next day. did you get it day one? looks to be a half assed effort unfortunately.
