Upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 Games in 2025

Nintendo just dropped this bomb about their next big thing, Drag x Drive—yeah, a wheelchair basketball game. Totally didn’t see that coming. Hits shelves the same day Madden NFL 26 does, on Aug. 14. Kind of makes you wonder about their strategy. Are they trying to spice things up? Could be.

And what’s the vibe for the rest of 2025 for Switch 2? Drag x Drive’s launch date is like that friend who overshares, giving away Nintendo’s next moves. Apparently, it’s $19.99—pretty affordable if you ask me. Sort of fills that eternal void known as summer gaming, right? Throw in some new Kirby action too with an expansion dubbed Star-Crossed Land. What even are Mouthful Modes? Imagining it has me scratching my head and chuckling.

July’s lineup looks slightly loaded with Donkey Kong Bananza stepping up. Plus, they’re re-tweaking Super Mario Party Jamboree. Funny how there’s always something old alongside something freshly cooked. A deliberate pattern? Hard to say, yet here we are.

September feels like… crickets. Not much from Nintendo, but third parties are covering their tracks — Borderlands 4, anyone? Anyway, back to October—you can expect Pokémon Legends: Z-A. Another crossover! Like, can my wallet take it?

Fast forward into 2025, there’s still Kirby Air Riders and Metroid Prime 4 lurking with “TBA” signs. Betting on Metroid in September could make sense, right when folks are still buzzing over Kirby stuff. Pretty sneaky!

Falling leaves might dance to the tunes of Elden Ring: Tarnished Edition, Hades 2, and Hollow Knight: Silksong. Toss in a potential Call of Duty release? Who knows. Oh, and there’s this Zelda brawler, Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment, hinting at a winter reveal – not that winter likes committing to timelines. Could be 2026.

Let’s not forget GameCube nostalgia trips possibly appearing on Switch 2 online. Remember Super Mario Sunshine? Bound to pop up. Nintendo’s surprises, though – they’re like those random late-night cravings. Always keep a spot open for the unexpected with them around.
