Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour
Much like Astro's Playroom for PlayStation, Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour is an interactive experience that offers an inside look at the suite of features and tech that power the games you love to play.
Uncover lots of insights about the console. Explore basic features, like the magnetic connectors that keep the Joy-Con 2 controllers firmly attached, and more advanced tech details that you might not otherwise notice.
Split Fiction
Embrace mind-blowing moments as you’re pulled deep into the many worlds of Split Fiction, a boundary-pushing co-op action adventure from the studio behind 2021 Game of the Year Winner, It Takes Two.
Mio and Zoe are contrasting writers – one writes sci-fi and the other writes fantasy – who become trapped in their own stories after being hooked up to a machine designed to steal their creative ideas. They’ll have to rely on each other to break free with their memories in-tact, working together to master a variety of abilities and overcome diverse challenges while jumping between sci-fi and fantasy worlds in this unexpected tale of friendship.
Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma Nintendo Switch™ 2 Edition
The next Rune Factory game is almost here and it's coming to Nintendo Switch 2! Choose from one of two protagonists whose destinies are intertwined by mysterious forces. Use sacred treasures to fight against the Blight’s many forms to restore the people, and even gods, to their natural glory.
Take farming further, as you’ll manage more than a plot, rebuilding entire villages and cultivating new allies and resources along the way. Explore seasonal-themed villages heavily inspired by traditional Japanese culture, each with brand-new festivals and revamped fan-favourites, as well as charming romance candidates.
BRAVELY DEFAULT FLYING FAIRY HD Remaster
Follow four Warriors of Light on a journey to restore the elemental crystals in the HD remaster of the Nintendo 3DS RPG masterpiece, BRAVELY DEFAULT. Experience an RPG that brings new depth to classic, turn-based battles with the introduction of the “Brave & Default” system – featuring an array of options to customise your characters with over 20 unique jobs.
The game also includes quality of life updates and two new minigames that leverage the dual mouse controls of Nintendo Switch 2.
Survival Kids
Setting out to sea upon their ramshackle boat, a sudden, ferocious storm hurls them into a hidden world brimming with danger and mystery. Now it’s down to you to help them work together and find their way home in Survival Kids - a fast-paced, co-op survival game for absolutely everyone!
Stranded on a series of unique islands, set upon the back of giant Whurtles, work together with up to 4 players online or 2 players in local co-op to explore, chop, craft, fish, cook and solve your way to safety - all whilst surviving everything the islands throw at you!
Master the island's challenges, use the Harmony Stones to tame the storm and make it back home with an epic story to tell!
FANTASY LIFE i: The Girl Who Steals Time
Step into this Slow-Life RPG where you can freely switch between 14 unique jobs, so called "Lives," and enjoy a carefree life in a fantasy world.
Fish, cook, shape the island to your liking, or team up with friends to battle monsters across the vast world.
It's up to you to choose what kind of Life you'll live! Plus, you can invite friends to your island, explore dungeons, or find your own ways to have fun together!
No Man's Sky
Inspired by the adventure and imagination that we love from classic science-fiction, No Man's Sky presents you with a galaxy to explore, filled with unique planets and lifeforms, and constant danger and action.
In No Man's Sky, every star is the light of a distant sun, each orbited by planets filled with life, and you can go to any of them you choose. Fly smoothly from deep space to planetary surfaces, with no loading screens, and no limits. In this infinite procedurally generated universe, you'll discover places and creatures that no other players have seen before - and perhaps never will again.
