Please note that not all titles will be available on launch day, June 5. Some games, like Donkey Kong Bananza, won't hit shelves until July 17, and major releases like Metroid Prime 4: Beyond and Pokémon Legends: Z-A are still missing from preorder listings on both Switch 2 and the current model.

For those looking to enhance their gaming setup, we've also covered new Switch 2 accessories. From the new Joy-Con 2 to Switch 2 Pro controllers and a camera, today is the perfect day to add these to your cart.

How Much to Upgrade Switch Games to Switch 2 Edition?

Nintendo has confirmed the cost of upgrading from the original Switch to the Switch 2 edition for two more games: Kirby and the Forgotten Land and Super Mario Party Jamboree. Upgrading The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom will cost $9.99, but Kirby and the Forgotten Land and Super Mario Party Jamboree upgrades will be more than double that amount. While U.S. prices are not yet available on the American Nintendo eShop, the UK Nintendo eShop lists the upgrade pack at £16.99 / €19.99, significantly higher than the £7.99 / €9.99 for upgrading Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom.

Switch 2: Game-Key Cards?

It has come to light that most physical third-party Nintendo Switch 2 games in Japan are Game-Key Cards, and it appears the same trend is emerging in the West. In the US, Sega's Switch 2 games, such as 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 went hands-on with two of the most anticipated Switch 2 launch titles, Donkey Kong Bananza and Mario Kart World. Both are available for preorder now. Here's what Brian Altano and Logan Plant had to say about these highly anticipated games:

Donkey Kong Bananza: "I think Bananza is on track to be one of the most visually stunning Nintendo games I've seen. It truly leverages the Switch 2's hardware – the environments are breathtaking, and DK’s animations are wonderfully expressive. 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 significant additions to the franchise, the visuals are stunning, and the gameplay is a blast. We can’t wait to play more, even if we wish it was a bit cheaper."
