The latest Nintendo Direct goes live very shortly, so expect this list to be missing a surprise release or two, but it’s still another huge slate of games arriving on the Switch.
The highlight? Mortal Kombat 1, which sees the return of iconic fighting franchise to the Switch. Benny was a huge fan of it on PS5, so it’ll be interesting to see how well the game plays here.
See the full list of new games below, and also check out Nintendo’s updated Game Store list, here.
