Recent reports indicate that most physical third-party Nintendo Switch 2 games in Japan are being released as Game-Key Cards, a trend that appears to be mirrored in the West. In the US, Sega's Switch 2 games, including Sonic X Shadow Generations and Yakuza 0: Director’s Cut, are listed as Game-Key Cards. Only a few third-party titles, such as Cyberpunk 2077, Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion, Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma, and No Sleep For Kaname Date - From AI: THE SOMNIUM FILES Aiba Edition, will be available as traditional physical copies.
IGN recently had the opportunity to preview two of the most anticipated Switch 2 launch titles, Donkey Kong Bananza and Mario Kart World. Both are available for preorder now, and here's what our reviewers had to say:
**Donkey Kong Bananza**: "I also think Bananza is on track to be one of the most gorgeous Nintendo games I’ve seen. It really does take advantage of Switch 2's hardware – the environments are beautiful and DK’s animations are wonderfully expressive, and I left feeling like the next generation of first-party Nintendo games had truly arrived."
**Mario Kart World**: "Mario Kart World feels like the definitive Switch 2 launch game and will certainly be one of the defining games of the Switch 2 generation. The new open world format and Knockout Tour modes are massive new additions to the franchise, the visuals are gorgeous, the gameplay is a blast, and we can’t wait to play more, even if we wish it was a few bucks cheaper."
2025 is shaping up to be an exciting year for game releases. In addition to the Switch 2, several other highly anticipated games are on the horizon. Here are some more of our preorder guides to keep you updated on other exciting releases:
