PSA: Don’t expect all games to be available on launch day, June 5. Some titles will launch with the console, but others will follow later. For instance, Donkey Kong Bananza won’t be available until July 17, and major releases like Metroid Prime 4: Beyond and Pokémon Legends: Z-A are still absent from preorder listings for both the Switch 2 and the current model.

For those looking to enhance their Switch 2 experience, we also have you covered with the latest accessories. From the new Joy-Con 2 to Switch 2 Pro controllers and even a camera, today is the perfect day to start adding these to your cart.

How Much to Upgrade Switch Games to Switch 2 Edition?

Nintendo has confirmed the cost of upgrading certain Switch games to their Switch 2 editions. Upgrading Kirby and the Forgotten Land and Super Mario Party Jamboree from their original versions will be more expensive than anticipated. While upgrading The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom costs $9.99, both Kirby and Mario Party upgrades are priced significantly higher. Although precise U.S. prices are not yet available on the American Nintendo eShop, the UK eShop lists the upgrade pack at £16.99 / €19.99, more than double the £7.99 / €9.99 charged for Zelda upgrades.

Switch 2: Game-Key Cards?

It's been revealed that most physical third-party Nintendo Switch 2 games in Japan are Game-Key Cards, and a similar trend appears to be emerging in the West. In the US, Sega's Switch 2 games, including Sonic X Shadow Generations and Yakuza 0: Director’s Cut, are listed as Game-Key Cards. However, we've identified four third-party physical Switch 2 games that are not Game-Key Cards: Cyberpunk 2077, Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion, Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma, and No Sleep For Kaname Date - From AI: THE SOMNIUM FILES Aiba Edition.

Switch 2 Game Previews

IGN recently got hands-on with two of the most anticipated Switch 2 launch titles, Donkey Kong Bananza and Mario Kart World. Both are now available for preorder, and here's what our team had to say:

Donkey Kong Bananza: "I also think Bananza is on track to be one of the most gorgeous Nintendo games I’ve seen. It really does take advantage of Switch 2's hardware – the environments are beautiful and DK’s animations are wonderfully expressive, and I left feeling like the next generation of first-party Nintendo games had truly arrived."

Mario Kart World: "Mario Kart World feels like the definitive Switch 2 launch game and will certainly be one of the defining games of the Switch 2 generation. The new open world format and Knockout Tour modes are massive new additions to the franchise, the visuals are gorgeous, the gameplay is a blast, and we can’t wait to play more, even if we wish it was a few bucks cheaper."
