There's still no official release date for Nintendo's Switch 2 console and the launch lineup is a mystery, but one thing has been revealed: gamers can expect Xbox games to become available for it at some point.

Here's our best guess at everything we'll be playing on the Nintendo Switch 2 when it finally launches later this year.

Even though the Nintendo Switch 2 was just announced, several games have already declared that they will be releasing on the system.

Xbox boss Phil Spencer has confirmed that Xbox games will be available on Nintendo Switch 2 after it launches.

The only Nintendo-published game confirmed for Switch 2 at this time is a new Mario Kart.

While this news is certainly welcome, it’s not exactly surprising. After all, former Xbox exclusives like Grounded, Sea of Thieves, Pentiment, and High-Fi Rush arrived on Nintendo Switch (and PS5) last year. Because of that, it makes sense that Xbox would continue its relationship with Nintendo for the latter’s upcoming console.

So, there you go, there are the games we’re desperate to see as Nintendo Switch 2 launch titles. They won’t be, but life is a constant cycle of unbridled hope and often slightly disappointing by comparison reality, with the hope bit being both what makes it all so enthralling, and so soul-warping.

A retailer has potentially leaked the official release date for the highly anticipated Nintendo Switch 2. Nintendo has been very tight-lipped about the new console even after officially announcing it earlier this month.
