"Microsoft has said it's committed to bringing Call of Duty to Nintendo Switch, and it could be coming as soon as next year. Reporter Jez Corden said "the first CoD Switch version is nearly done." He added that the game, whatever it is, will launch "in a few months." In another post, Corden said the release may not be "close" but it's "on the way" for a 2026 release."
"In 2023, amid the FTC vs. Microsoft court case, Microsoft said it had signed a "binding 10-year legal agreement to bring Call of Duty to Nintendo players." The statement said Microsoft would launch Call of Duty on Nintendo platforms "the same day as Xbox, with full features and content parity." Then in June 2025, a spokesperson for Activision said, "We're committed to getting the [Call of Duty] franchise on Switch," adding that both Microsoft and Activision were working on making it happen."
Microsoft committed to bringing Call of Duty to Nintendo Switch and development is progressing toward a potential release. Reporter Jez Corden said the first CoD Switch version is nearly done and suggested a launch in a few months, while later posts indicated a possible 2026 timeframe as the game hits development milestones. The release could be a port of an existing title or a new game. Phil Spencer said work was needed to get Call of Duty running on Switch in 2022, and Nintendo has since released the Switch 2. Microsoft signed a binding 10-year agreement in 2023 promising same-day, full-feature parity, and Activision reiterated commitment in June 2025 without a set release window. The last Call of Duty on a Nintendo platform was a port of Ghosts for Wii U in 2013, and January 2026 Xbox Developer Direct could host an announcement.
