We have a full view of Nintendo Switch 2 games now the April 2 Direct has come and gone — including a number of exclusives and launch titles, and that all-important release date for the console itself. It follows months of slim pickings following the console’s initial hardware-focused reveal in January, which also saw developers...

We finally got a true look at the Nintendo Switch 2 during today's Nintendo Direct!

They don't spark Joy(Con).

Coming to a Nintendo system for the first time. CD Projekt Red has revealed today that it is bringing its best-selling action-adventure RPG Cyberpunk 2077 to the Nintendo Switch 2. Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition will include all of the content and updates released for the game so far, allowing Nintendo owners to immersive themselves in the dark world of Night City for the first time ever.

Now, you may not know this about me, but along with being quite the Nintendo fan, I am also a HUGE James Bond fan. So, when Nintendo teased a particular spy was going to be coming to its Switch successor, well, my ears pricked up.

Nintendo just held a livestream to drop more details on the forthcoming Switch 2 console. At the very end, it revealed a brand-new 3D platformer starring Donkey Kong. This is the first game of its type since Donkey Kong 64 hit the Nintendo 64 all the way back in 1999. It’s called Donkey Kong Bananza and launches exclusively for the Switch 2 on July 17, which is just over a month after the console hits store shelves. It looks cool! Much of the environment is destructible, so DK can get in there a...

£395.99 in the UK for the console alone. Switch 2 will cost $449.99 US dollars when it launches in June 5th, Nintendo has announced following the Switch 2 Direct. The console will also be available in a bundle with the newly announced Mario Kart World for an extra $50, bringing the "suggested retail price" to $499.99 with a digital version of the game thrown in.

The Switch 2 is getting a brand new 3D Donkey Kong platformer.

FromSoftware, the renowned development studio behind popular games like Elden Ring and the Dark Souls series, announced a brand new game at the Nintendo Direct on Wednesday. It’s called The Duskbloods and it’s set to be released sometime in 2026, exclusively on the Nintendo Switch 2. The developers aired a short trailer that showed off...

Dammit!

Give me all the new things! Oh boy, we are so close now, ladies and gents, we can feel it. Can you feel it? There was an absolutely monumental amount of new information, games and hardware to take in during that 60 minute Nintendo Direct. However, we also got a very nice Partner Spotlight trailer that handily showcases a whole bunch of very exciting games that are on the way to Nintendo's Switch 2 console.

A lawsuit filed against Apple in California this week accuses the company of violating the state's false advertising law and other consumer laws, by intentionally misleading customers into thinking that they are purchasing digital e-books from the Apple Books app in perpetuity, when instead they are only purchasing revokable licenses to the books. The proposed class action complaint explains that Apple is required to pull a digital book or audiobook from the Apple Books app if and when it loses ...

A big new Donkey Kong 3D platforming adventure is coming to Nintendo Switch 2, Nintendo announced Wednesday during its Nintendo Direct showcase dedicated to the new console. It’s called Donkey Kong Bananza, and it will send (fresh new look) Donkey Kong to heretofore unexplored, underground territories where he’ll smash, grab, and throw things at anyone...

If you were hoping for Bloodborne 2, it's good and bad news. This isn't that, because that's a Sony thing. However, FromSoftware's new game, coming to the Switch 2, looks to borrow a lot of the gothic cues and style of Bloodborne.   The Duskbloods leans into a slightly more Steampunk style too, with what appears to be steam-powered automatons and a Victorian London setting. There are also vampire shenanigans, a man with an axe in a pyjama onesie, a dinosaur, and a rune-covered rodent. In short, ...

Tutorial is a paid download. It was revealed today that the Nintendo Switch 2 will launch alongside a paid app which teaches you all about the new console. Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour launches on the same day as the console—June 5th—and teaches you the ins and outs of the system.

The specs of the console's new Nvidia chip, however, remain mysterious.

This is not a drill, Hollow Knight: Silksong is finally coming out this year. After eons of waiting, we have a launch window for what is easily one of the most highly anticipated indie and Metroidvania games of all time. It’s currently the most wishlisted game on Steam, but the 2025 launch window has been confirmed in the last place I thought it would be.

First it was Bloodborne. Then, Grand Theft Auto 6. Now, there’s another great-looking game - but we don’t know when, or if, it will ever come to PC. Sigh. FromSoftware, the legendary RPG maker behind Elden Ring, Dark Souls, and Sekiro, has an entirely new project in the works called The Duskbloods. It looks a bit steampunk. It could well be an RPG, or even a soulslike. But from what we know so far, it’s exclusive to the Nintendo Switch 2.

If it’s felt like roughly 3-1/2 years since the last installment of Toby Fox’s Deltarune, the wildly popular follow-up to his wildly popular debut game Undertale, that’s because you have a very good sense of time, congratulations. But after what has been an interminable wait — just scan the official subreddit if you don’t believe...

Still no specifics, mind you. Well, here's a face that we had grown tired of anticipating! Hollow Knight: Silksong made a cameo in today's Nintendo Switch 2 Direct presentation — yes, an actual, real cameo — and it was accompanied by a 2025 release window. We saw very little of Team Cherry's sequel, all in all, but the blink-and-you'll-miss-it appearance in the presentation's sizzle reel has us pumped for more info.

At long last, it’s finally happened. Kirby Air Ride is getting a sequel: Kirby Air Riders for the Nintendo Switch 2 later this year. We don’t know much about the game yet, but seeing the newly refreshed graphics is enough. The game is being directed by the man, the myth, the legend himself, Masahiro Sakurai,...

Futureproof features mean squat here and now.

AMD CPUs are up and Intel down, too.

Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade is coming to the Nintendo Switch 2, though no release date was given.

During Nintendo’s Switch 2 Direct showcase, the company revealed two dates that fans should immediately take note of, and scribble hastily into their calendars: its June 5 release date, and even sooner, the date when you can place a pre-order for the console. You can put money down for the Switch 2 starting Wednesday, April...

Pink appears to be quickly turning into the new black, with this new Thermaltake pink RAM being the latest component to don the popular cherry blossom costume, and no, it’s not an April fool. The new Thermaltake Bubble Pink ToughRAM XG RGB D5 memory has a big dose of pink coloring on the right half of each module, which looks ideal for a Sakura gaming PC. If you’re drawing on a cherry blossom theme for your next build, and you want the whole lot to be color-matched, then Thermaltake looks as tho...

Nintendo Switch Online is getting a Switch 2-exclusive upgrade. On June 5, the same day the new console goes on sale, the service's Expansion Pack service will begin including GameCube games. At launch, Nintendo will offer The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, Soulcaliber II and F-Zero GX, with more games to come following the Switch 2's release.  Games that support multiplayer, including F-Zero GX, will offer online play, with support for up to four players. Additionally, the Switch 2 will rende...

Big publishers who haven’t been able to bring their biggest multiplatform games to the Nintendo Switch due to its relative lack of processing power are racing to release ports of these titles on the more powerful Switch 2. We got our first indication of this during Wednesday’s Switch 2 Direct, with the announcement of Switch...

During today's Nintendo Direct all about the Switch 2, the company shared how and when fans can finally get the handheld into their hands. After a long, long wait, pre-orders for the Switch 2 will begin on April 9. Its starting price tag is $450, and the console will be widely available on June 5. The console will be available from the usual lineup of retailers, which we expect to include Amazon, Best Buy, GameStop, Walmart and others. We knew from the teaser trailer for the Switch 2 that Ninten...

The force is reportedly strong with this one. Massive Entertainment's excellent Star Wars Outlaws has shown up - albeit incredibly briefly - in a sizzle reel sequence during the latest, Switch 2-focused, Nintendo Direct. We're excited to see this one in particular make its way to the new console for several reasons. Of course, chiefly, it's just a very good game - our sister site Pure Xbox gave it an 8/10 and called it a "Super Star War", but there are more interesting aspects here, too, as it's...

Finally! Nintendo has announced Donkey Kong: Bananza, a new 3D DK adventure for the Switch 2. It'll launch on 17th July 2025. Showcasing the newly-updated design for Donkey Kong, you'll be leaping and smashing your way through various environments and enemies. More details will come at a later date, but it's looking absolutely stunning.

Well, where to start! As part of Nintendo's Switch 2 Direct, FromSoftware has unveiled a brand-new title. It's called The Duskbloods, it's coming to Switch 2 next year, and it looks wild.

Nintendo Switch Online members will gain access to a limited selection of GameCube games exclusively on Switch 2, today’s Nintendo Direct announced. The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker, Soulcalibur 2, and F-Zero GX will be playable when the Switch 2 launches on June 5, but the segment also teased the following list of future arrivals:...

Star of the show. We had a feeling that the legendary Masahiro Sakurai would make a cameo in today's Nintendo Switch 2 Direct, and that he did! Kirby Air Ride is back, baby, this time in the form of Kirby Air Riders — an all-new racer for the pink puffball launching on Switch 2 at some point this year.

Rattling the bars of my cage. Gnawing them, too.
