Rumored Nintendo Switch Games

The Nintendo Switch has been a runaway success, proving that raw power is not the be-all and end-all for consoles. Through a combination of Nintendo's first-party games, a solid selection of triple-A third-party titles, and all the indie projects anyone could ever want, the Switch has amassed a stellar library that can match most platforms in terms of quality and quantity.

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Super Mario Odyssey are two of the greatest games of the last five years, but there is always a chance that the best Nintendo Switch game has yet to be released. 2021 produced Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury, Monster Hunter Rise, NEO: The World Ends With You, The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD, Shin Megami Tensei 5, and Metroid Dread, and 2022 was decent as well

Here's a look at all the titles we can expect to see on the Nintendo Switch in 2023 and beyond. Which big Nintendo Switch games have release dates? Please note the focus is on North American release dates.

August 2023 Nintendo Switch Games

August 2023 is both a quiet and packed month for the Nintendo Switch. On the one hand, these four weeks do not contain any major exclusives or console sellers, outside of Samba de Amigo: Party Central, a fairly niche party game. On the other hand, games like Sclash, WrestleQuest, and Stray Gods: The Roleplaying Musical, could prove to be among 2023's more exciting indie releases, and they are only a sample of the month's offerings. Sea of Stars, Sabotage Studio's The Messenger prequel, is another title that could make waves, especially among turn-based RPG fans.

While bordering on infamy, Akiba's Trip: Undead & Undressed is still a noteworthy title that is coming to Nintendo's hybrid system in the form of a Director's Cut. August 2023's biggest Switch release might ultimately prove to be Blasphemous 2, a Soulslike that looks set to build on the strong foundations of its predecessor.

September 2023 Nintendo Switch Games

Even if not as stacked as other platforms, the Nintendo Switch's September 2023 lineup is still quite strong. JRPG fans can pick up either Rune Factory 3 Special, The Legend of Nayuta: Boundless Trails, Fate/Samurai Remnant, or Infinity Strash: Dragon Quest The Adventure of Dai, four games that cover a wide spectrum of moods and gameplay styles. Baten Kaitos 1 & 2 Remastered is also a great option for both people who grew up with the GameCube classics or newcomers.

Fae Farm and My Time at Sandrock look set to be among 2023's coziest farming sims, and Harvest Moon: The Winds of Anthos might be worth keeping an eye on. Super Bomberman R 2 should be another charming entry in Konami's puzzle franchise, and Mortal Kombat 1 is somehow confirmed for the Nintendo Switch. In September 2023, Disney Speedstorm will also make its full free-to-play debut.
