The 11 best Nintendo Switch 2 games we played in 2025
"2025 was a big year for gaming, and that includes gaming hardware. Nintendo launched its Switch 2 console in June, and since then, numerous Switch 2 titles and noteworthy updates for original Switch games have launched. These include brand-new Nintendo experiences like Mario Kart World and Donkey Kong Bananza, as well as some belated but welcome third-party titles, including Cyberpunk 2077 and Divinity: Original Sin 2. Even classics like The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild got some new life on the upgraded console."
"So what if Mario Kart World comes in the box with the $499 Switch 2 bundle? It's still so easy to recommend because few other games match the briskness at which it just lets you get going and have fun. The latest entry in Nintendo's top-selling racing franchise adds many new characters, an open-world single-player mode, unique interconnected courses, and a lot more."
