Speculated Games Coming to Nintendo Switch

What games might be showcased for the Nintendo Switch? While Nintendo is keeping details under wraps, the gaming community is buzzing with speculation. One of the most anticipated titles is Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, which was first announced back at E3 2017.

Rumors are also circulating about Pokémon Legends: Z-A, a potential remaster of The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD, and a new Mario Kart game hinted at during the Nintendo Switch 2 reveal. Fans are also eagerly awaiting any news on Hollow Knight: Silksong, hoping for a long-awaited release date.

While the Direct is centered on the current Nintendo Switch lineup, it's worth noting that Nintendo has confirmed backward compatibility for the upcoming Switch 2. This means that any games announced or showcased during the Direct will also be playable on the new console.
