Swept and updated with new entries from the March 2025 Nintendo Direct. Still plenty to look forward to on your current console even without any Switch 2 stuff!
Looking for the best new Nintendo Switch games releasing soon? Even in its twilight years, Nintendo’s hybrid console is delivering, but next year could well be ushering in the successor. That doesn’t mean the Switch is being left behind in 2025, though.
Donkey Kong Country Returns HD kicked off the year, and a Wii U favourite in Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition followed shortly after. 2025 will also give us a brand new Pokémon game in Pokémon Legends: Z-A and the long-awaited Metroid Prime 4: Beyond. There’s plenty more, and there’s even Switch games announced for 2026, too.
Below, we’ve rounded up the biggest new Nintendo Switch games coming soon. And, of course, we’ll be adding to (and subtracting from) this list as the weeks and months go by.
