Switch 2: Game-Key Cards?
Recent reports indicate that most physical third-party Nintendo Switch 2 games in Japan will be Game-Key Cards, a trend that seems to be mirrored in the West. In the US, Sega's Switch 2 titles like Sonic X Shadow Generations and Yakuza 0: Director’s Cut are listed as Game-Key Cards. So far, we've identified only four third-party physical Switch 2 games that are not Game-Key Cards: Cyberpunk 2077, Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion, Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma, and No Sleep For Kaname Date - From AI: THE SOMNIUM FILES Aiba Edition.
Switch 2 Game Previews
IGN recently had the chance to go hands-on with two of the most anticipated Switch 2 launch titles: Donkey Kong Bananza and Mario Kart World. Both games are now available for preorder, and here's what our team had to say:
Donkey Kong Bananza: "I think Bananza is on track to be one of the most visually stunning Nintendo games I’ve seen. It truly leverages the capabilities of the Switch 2's hardware – the environments are breathtaking and DK’s animations are incredibly expressive. This feels like the next generation of first-party Nintendo games has truly arrived."
Mario Kart World: "Mario Kart World feels like the definitive Switch 2 launch game and is poised to be one of the defining titles of the Switch 2 generation. The new open-world format and Knockout Tour modes are significant additions to the franchise, the visuals are stunning, and the gameplay is incredibly fun. We can’t wait to play more, though we wish it was a bit more affordable."
