Best upcoming Nintendo Switch games to look forward to in 2022
The Nintendo Switch proved itself as a very capable competitor to the PS4 and Xbox One while offering something else besides - portability. It's still just as impressive now that the PS5 and Xbox Series X/S are on the scene, too.
With the Nintendo Switch Lite also going great guns, plus the Nintendo Switch OLED now available, there are a ton of fans looking for the best games to buy.
That's why we've gathered a list of the upcoming Switch games we've got our own beady eyes on. You can find them in chronological order – soonest first – and with trailers for each.

The Xenoblade series continues with another epic-looking adventure, coming exclusively to the Nintendo Switch. Its developers have said that the game will be a great jumping-on point for newcomers to the saga, though, so you shouldn't need to know too much about the games that have preceded it.
No Man's Sky
- Release date: Summer 2022
- Switch exclusive? No
- Publisher: Hello Games
No Man's Sky is one of gaming's great redemption stories, coming back from a fairly disastrous launch to win back trust with countless impressive post-launch updates. Now its procedurally-generated planets and galaxies are coming to Switch, an impressive technical feat.
Splatoon 3
- Release date: 9 September 2022
- Switch exclusive? Yes
- Publisher: Nintendo

A third game in the fan-favourite ink-shooting series, Splatoon 3 will be a much-needed multiplayer offering for the Switch when it comes out in 2022. That said, it'll also have a great campaign to enjoy, called The Return of the Mammalians, and it looks like furry mammals will be returning to the game's world.
Pokémon Scarlet and Violet
- Release date: 18 November 2022
- Switch exclusive? Yes
- Publisher: Nintendo
Pokémon is back, and it's learning the lessons that the success of Pokémon Legends Arceus demonstrated, with more open-world systems than ever and the ability to move around without transitions and loading screens, from the looks of things. It's looking like a vibrant and colourful step forward for the franchise.
Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp
- Release date: TBC 2022
- Switch exclusive? Yes
- Publisher: Nintendo
Two of the very best turn-based strategy games ever made, this package will bring remasters of both Advance Wars titles from the Game Boy Advance days. They've got a beautiful updated look which brings the sort of polish we love to see. We'll certainly be strapping in to lead the troops when it comes out, although the release date is in limbo after Nintendo delayed the game due to world events (meaning the invasion of Ukraine by Russia).

Portal: Companion Collection
- Release date: 2022
- Switch exclusive? No
- Publisher: Valve
The hugely influential and celebrated Portal games are coming to Switch, in a collection that will bring both of the mind-bending titles in one package. You'll lay down portals to navigate through increasingly complicated puzzles and levels, all while unfolding a hilarious story of robotic overlords gone wrong.
Bayonetta 3
- Release date: 2022
- Switch exclusive? Yes
- Publisher: Nintendo
Bayonetta 3 was announced way back in 2017, but it took until September 2021 for us to finally see something concrete, and indeed some gameplay. The above trailer confirms that it's going to be just as bombastic and fantastic as the last two games, and it's set to release in 2022.
Hollow Knight: Silksong
- Release date: 2022
- Switch exclusive? No
- Publisher: Team Cherry
Hollow Knight: Silksong is an upcoming Metroidvania action-adventure video game that's the sequel to 2017's award-winning Hollow Knight. You'll be journeying to all new lands with special powers to battle the bug hordes. It has been suggested that this game will launch in June but there's no official word yet.
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild 2
- Release date: Spring 2023
- Switch exclusive? Yes
- Publisher: Nintendo
Although we don't yet know the official name, we're happy to see that the sequel to one of the most popular games on Switch is getting a sequel. That's right The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild is getting another outing. It's aiming for a Spring 2023 release date at present, after a recent delay.
Metroid Prime 4
- Release date: TBC
- Switch exclusive? Yes
- Publisher: Nintendo
Nintendo announced a new instalment of Metroid Prime, this time for Switch, during its E3 2017 Spotlight presentation but few other details have emerged in more than a year. We do know though that Bandai Namco is working on the game as its development studio.
