Video: 10 Exciting Games Coming To Switch And Switch 2 In August 2026

Concerning there are no Oblivion for Switch 2 reviews up considering how soon it is going to be released…

Definitely grabbing that Metal Gear Solid collection.

I might get the MGS collection on sale later, past that not much really on my radar. Really only Switch 2 game I'm planning to buy for the rest of the year is Fortune's Weave (which I already paid for), though could see there being other stuff that ends up catching my interest at some point.

I kinda want to get the MGS games now that most of the series is on Nintendo, but…. Are the jokes/complaints that the games feel more like movies at times an over exaggeration?

I like me a good story driven game, but I also want to be playing it more than just watching cutscenes.

@-wc-
I’ll keep this in mind! I guess if anything, I should get MGS 1 on its own and see if it’s something I can get behind. I grew up at the tail end of the fifth console gen and into the sixth gen, so I can deal with any clunky elements, if the game has any.

MGS and Duskfade. Need to save for OOT.

MGS4 is my purchase.

@JC016 They have lots of cutscenes, but they are also games with great gameplay and there's nothing like them. MGS4 is the worst offender in that regard but it also has really cool stealth mechanics while Peace Walker is probably the one with the least and shortest cutscenes and also really cool gameplay. Either MGS1 or 3 are the best entry points if you wanna see the story, but you could see videos on YouTube summarizing the story so that you can begin with any game you want. For Peace Walker for example you really only need to know the story of MGS3.

So no first party games except for the Pokopia DLC? Interesting.

Until the Direct was announced for Fire Emblem, I thought something might get shadow dropped (like Mario Maker 2 with mouse controls).

I'm personally super keen for Pro Jank Footy.

@JohnnyMind - When will you find time to play these RPGs? 😆

I wait Metal gear 4!!! One of my best games ever!!!

Wonder how mgs4 will deal with the obvious Sony tie ins when it releases on all platforms lol

Really strange seeing Guns of the Patriots on the Switch both 1 and 2, didn't think that would ever have been possible on a handheld from seeing it on the PS3 but here we are, technology is amazing.

Kinda just need Twin Snakes to join NSO now.

Looking forward to Duskfade. Going to go play the demo on PS5 now.
