Yooka-Replayee is also slated to launch on Switch 2 (although there’s no telling if it’ll be there at launch) while a sort of Diablo-like game about catching and leveling monsters in Synth Beasts could help cover any potential Pokemon -shaped holes in the lineup.

One of the most critically acclaimed releases of recent years is Rockstar Games' Red Dead Redemption 2. With the Switch 2 expected to contain improved hardware to handle more graphically intensive games, RDR2 is the perfect game to test Nintendo's console to its limits. Rumours suggest is could happen!

Beyond the confirmed Switch 2 games above, it’s possible that Nintendo will release its slate of upcoming Nintendo Switch games — such as Pokémon Legends: Z-A, Metroid Prime 4, and an unnamed, mysterious Switch Online multiplayer game — as cross-generation titles for both systems.

There's still no 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.

Nintendo Switch 2 fans who are eager to try out the console may be getting good news soon, as confirmation emails are reportedly rolling out.
