The Nintendo Switch has been nothing short of a sensation, proving that sheer hardware power isn’t everything when it comes to gaming consoles. Nintendo’s unique blend of exclusive titles, alongside a solid lineup of third-party games from big publishers and a plethora of indie gems, has helped the Switch build an impressive and diverse game library that can compete with just about any other platform out there.
Two incredible titles, "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild" and "Super Mario Odyssey," stand as some of the best games in recent memory. Nonetheless, there’s always a possibility that the greatest Switch game is yet to come. Both 2022 and 2023 were fantastic for Switch fans, with 2023 bringing us exclusive hits such as "The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom," "Metroid Prime Remastered," and "Pikmin 4," among others. Fast forward to 2024, and we’ve seen more exclusives focused on characters like Princess Peach and Zelda.
As we approach the end of 2024 and look into 2025 and beyond, let’s take a closer look at the significant titles lined up for the Nintendo Switch. This breakdown focuses on North American release dates, so let’s dive in and see what’s headed our way.
Updated by gaming reviewer Mark Sammut on November 28, 2024, the later part of the year has witnessed a slowdown in new Nintendo Switch game announcements, but recent additions to the release schedule include "Winning Post 10 2025," "Riviera: The Promised Land Remaster," and engaging titles like "Crown Wars: The Black Prince" and "911: Prey." We’ve also got quirky games like "Water Blast Shooter – Wet Gun," "Food Courier: Bike Adventure," and "Monster Truck Arena: Battle Royale" set to make a splash.
November 2024 Nintendo Switch Games
Heading into November, we have some standout games thanks to announcements at the June 2024 Nintendo Direct. "Mario & Luigi: Brothership," an RPG leveraging the brothers’ beloved franchise roots, stands out. It’s Mario’s first new RPG in nearly a decade, setting itself aside from titles like "The Origami King." While it may not redefine the genre, "Brothership" is a commendable addition.
But that’s not all for November. There’s also "Farmagia," an intriguing mix of farming and monster training, alongside a breathtaking release of "Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake" from Square Enix. Additionally, "Lego Horizon Adventures" offers a refreshing spin on the "Horizon Zero Dawn" universe.
Here’s a brief rundown of November’s releases:
- November 1: "Aero the Acro-Bat: Rascal Rival Revenge," "Farmagia"
- November 7: "Magic Bakery," "Mario & Luigi: Brothership"
- November 14: "Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake," "LEGO Horizon Adventures"
…and plenty more throughout the month.
December 2024 Nintendo Switch Games
December’s lineup is lighter, a trend typical as game releases slow towards year’s end. Yet, fans have exciting remasters to look forward to with "Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver," as well as "Fairy Tail 2," and the promising "Fantasia Neo Dimension."
Key December games include:
- December 1: "2weistein in Asban"

January & February 2025 Nintendo Switch Games
The beginning of 2025 offers an energetic start, which is typically unlike January. High-profile games like "Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana" and "Tales of Graces f Remastered" in RPGs, and a nod to platformers with "Donkey Kong Country Returns HD," set the tone.
As we slide into February, while the Switch misses out on some bigger third-party entries, "Civilization 7" emerges as a noteworthy title for strategy enthusiasts. The "Tomb Raider 4-6 Remastered" collection offers nostalgia for fans, though the infamous "Angel of Darkness" will be under intense scrutiny for gameplay improvements.
January releases schedule:
- January 16: "Donkey Kong Country Returns HD"
- January 23: "Guilty Gear -Strive- Nintendo Switch Edition"
February headliners:
- February 11: "Civilization 7"
- February 14: "Tomb Raider 4-6 Remastered"
Looking beyond, plenty of titles are still marked without specific dates. As we move further into 2025, keep an eye out for developments on titles like "Little Nightmares 3," "Pokemon Legends: Z-A," and "Metroid Prime 4: Beyond," promising a robust lineup for the Nintendo Switch into the future.
