Switch 2 Officially Has 2 Exclusive GOTY Contenders In September 2026

Nintendo Switch 2 has a busy month ahead with Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave, Orbitals, Onimusha: Way of the Sword, and more.

The short version

• Even though that game is not coming to Switch 2 , it's no different on Nintendo's platform, which will see perhaps its busiest release month since launch.
• In September, Switch 2 gets two very tasty exclusives — one of them a hotly anticipated new entry in a fan-favorite Nintendo franchise.
• There are also three AAA third-party games releasing day one on Switch 2, and one sequel to a much-loved indie.

What happened

The six games listed below are just the most anticipated all-new releases, too. 2018's Moonlighter is a much-loved indie that combines a cozy shopkeeping game with a Zelda-inspired dungeon-crawler.

Why it matters

By night, you explore dungeons and collect materials to craft and sell in your shop during the daytime.
