Bethesda Game Studios titles heading to Nintendo Switch 2

During the latest Nintendo Direct, Bethesda Game Studios and its partner studios confirmed a strong lineup of iconic titles heading to Nintendo Switch 2 throughout 2026. From cinematic globe-trotting adventures to legendary role-playing experiences, Nintendo’s next-generation console is set to host some of the most recognisable franchises in modern gaming.

These announcements reinforce Bethesda’s continued commitment to expanding its catalogue across platforms, while giving Nintendo players access to worlds that have defined action-adventure and RPG gaming over the last two decades.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle

Developed by MachineGames in collaboration with Lucasfilm Games, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle launches on Nintendo Switch 2 on 12 May 2026. Set in 1937, the story unfolds between the events of Raiders of the Lost Ark and The Last Crusade, placing players firmly in the boots of the legendary archaeologist.

The game blends cinematic storytelling with exploration, puzzle-solving, and immersive combat. Players rely on Indy’s whip, quick thinking, and environmental awareness to navigate ancient ruins and confront sinister global threats. Motion controls on Nintendo Switch 2 further enhance immersion, allowing players to sneak, fight, and interact with the world in more tactile ways.

Preorders are available digitally and at retail, and the story DLC The Order of Giants will also be available on launch day. Availability varies by region, with Japan and Korea receiving different physical and digital options.

Fallout 4: Anniversary Edition

Fallout 4: Anniversary Edition arrives on Nintendo Switch 2 on 24 February 2026, delivering the most complete version of Bethesda’s acclaimed post-apocalyptic RPG. This edition includes all six official add-ons alongside more than 150 pieces of Creation Club content, offering an expansive sandbox for both new and returning players.

Set in the ruins of post-nuclear Boston, the game invites players to explore, scavenge, build settlements, and shape alliances that determine the fate of the wasteland. The Anniversary Edition represents a decade of Fallout storytelling and systems refinement, all brought together in a single package optimised for Nintendo’s latest hardware.

The game launches digitally first, with a physical code-in-box edition scheduled for 28 April 2026, giving players flexible ways to experience the wasteland on the go.

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered

One of last year’s most talked-about releases is expanding its reach. The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered is coming to Nintendo Switch 2 later in 2026, opening the gates of Cyrodiil to Nintendo players for the first time.

Developed in partnership with Virtuos, the remaster modernises the 2006 Game of the Year with improved visuals, refined combat animations, updated menus, and enhanced character creation systems. While the heart of the original experience remains intact, the updated presentation brings the classic RPG in line with modern expectations.

The game will be available digitally at launch, with a physical code-in-box edition planned for a later date.

Amiibo functionality also returns, alongside exclusive Nintendo-themed content inspired by The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.

Both digital and physical versions will roll out regionally, with some territories receiving the release at a later date.
