Switch

Imagineer has just announced Path of Mystery 2: The Mermaid Legend Murder Case for Nintendo Switch 2, and Nintendo Switch. The game is due for a Japanese release in September, with a physical Nintendo Switch version, and a game-key card release for Nintendo Switch 2.

As the long title suggests, Path of Mystery 2: The Mermaid Legend Murder Case is a sequel to 2024’s Path of Mystery: A Brush with Death. Earlier this year we finally received a western release of the first title of the series, so we can expect a localization of the newly announced sequel eventually.

Here’s a full description of the new game, translated by Gematsu:

Wandering Sword

November 11: Wandering Sword will be appearing on Nintendo Switch 2 and Switch, Clouded Leopard Entertainment and The Swordman Studio announced today. Expect to see it sometime in 2026.

Wandering Sword is a 3D pixel wuxia RPG. The game previously appeared on PC, but on Nintendo’s platforms, two major DLC packs will be packed in – Mount Pack: The Supreme Steed and Immortal Trails Across the Blue Sea. There’ll also be newly recorded Japanese and Chinese voiceovers, as well as Japanese and Korean subtitles.

Yoshi and the Mysterious Book is here, and to celebrate, new icons are now available on Nintendo Switch Online.

Icons will be rotated weekly over the next month or so. You can grab designs for characters, backgrounds, and frames. Characters cost 10 Platinum Points each on My Nintendo. For backgrounds and frames, they’re 5 Platinum Points each.

Hashire Hebereke: EX

April 2, 2025: Announced in 2024 with a planned for a 2025 release, Hashire Hebereke: EX is now set for a Spring 2026 launch window. 

Hashire Hebereke: EX is a remake of Hashire Hebereke, a racing game featuring various characters and tracks. The original 1994 game was released on the Super Famicom in Japan only. It was developed by Sunsoft and its remake is being published by Gravity Games Arise. The remake includes new characters, stages, four person online multiplayer, and a new time attack mode. 

Marsupilami 2 Salsa Palombia

Marsupilami 2: Salsa Palombia is in the works for Nintendo Switch, retailer listings have revealed. The game is due out on September 3, 2026.

The original Marsupilami came to Nintendo Switch at the end of 2021, and was pretty well-received at the time. Just like the previous entry, the sequel is a 2.5D platformer reminiscent of Donkey Kong Country.

Circana has released a listing of the top ten best-selling games in the U.S. for the month of April 2026.

Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream was the big winner here as it managed to beat out every other title. Pragmata, another new release, comes in second. Also worth mentioning, Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2 moved up from #13 previously to #7 – likely due to The Super Mario Galaxy Movie. 

Here’s a look at the complete list of best-selling games in the U.S. for April 2026:

Neptunia: Unlimited

March 19: Today, Compile Heart unveiled Neptunia: Unlimited, which is planned for both Nintendo Switch 2 and Switch. It’s first debuting in Japan on August 27, 2026. Expect a western release and a finalized English name later.

Neptunia: Unlimited is arriving over a decade after the last mainline entry in the series. It’s also the first game in the franchise for Nintendo Switch 2.

Here’s some information about it:

According to Giant Bomb’s Jeff Grubb, a Nintendo Direct will air by the middle of June. In other words, if true, a presentation should be expected sometime within the next few weeks.

Grubb shared that tidbit of information during the latest Giant Bombcast episode. He doesn’t currently have an answer as to whether it would be a Partner Showcase or a full on Nintendo Direct, but is currently assuming the latter.

Kusan City Wolves release date

Thanks to PQube and CIRCLEfromDOT, we now have the release date for Kusan: City of Wolves. It’ll be out on July 30, 2026 both physically and digitally.

Kusan: City of Wolves, which features a hyper-violent neon-noir underworld where every fight is a brutal performance and every bullet counts, back in 2024. The plan was always to have it ready for this year, but now we have an actual date.

Hotel Barcelona

­Hotel Barcelona is making the jump to Nintendo Switch 2 and Switch, Eden Industries and White Owls revealed today. Launch timing will be shared soon.

Hotel Barcelona is a 2.5D action horror roguelite coming from Suda51 and Swery. When it hits Nintendo platforms, the game will come with the base game, the Under New Management overhaul, the Late Check-Out DLC, and all updates to date with online co-op for 1–3 players, 4-player invasion, and PvP.
