Nintendo reveals Xenoblade Genesis for Switch 2, a new Xenoblade title developed by Monolith Soft, set to launch in 2027 with a teaser trailer and website; more details are to come later.

Nintendo Direct announced a comprehensive lineup for the new Nintendo Switch 2, led by a Zelda: Ocarina of Time revival at launch in 2026 and KINGDOM HEARTS IV (plus a KH Collection) arriving on Switch 2, with a broad slate of new titles and upgrades across franchises—including Xenoblade Genesis, Star Fox, Minecraft Switch 2 Edition, Rhythm Heaven Groove, Splatoon Raiders, Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave, Dragon Quest Monsters: The Withered World, Dragon’s Dogma 2: Dark Arisen, and more—along with updates to Pokémon Pokopia, Duskbloods testing, and limited-time events. Release windows span 2026–2027, with demos, pre-orders, and Switch 2 Editions rolling out for multiple games and features across online play and GameShare.

The June 2026 Nintendo Direct livestream spotlighted a Switch 2‑first wave of cross‑gen releases and new titles, including Xenoblade Genesis with Switch 2 versions, Muramasa arriving in early 2027, and a Star Fox demo. Several notable ports and remasters were announced for Switch 2—Dragon’s Dogma 2, Devil May Cry 5, Lords of the Fallen 2, Lies of P, Onimusha Way of the Sword, and Stellar Blade—along with platform moves like Rhythm Heaven Groove leading the first wave. Release windows span later this year, September 25 and October 9 for some titles, and 2027 for others, signaling a heavy push toward a Switch 2 ecosystem with cross‑platform collaborations and new Xenoblade content.
