Looking for the best games on the Nintendo Switch? What follows is a living list of the 25 Switch games we recommend everyone play or watch — in case you’re new to the system or you’re just looking for something new to play.
The Switch has been around over seven years, has sold more than 140 million units, and boasts a vast software library encompassing first-party Nintendo classics, major games from big publishers, and a bewildering array of indie and digital titles. We’re here to guide you through it. You’ll find Mario and Zelda here, of course, plus many other Nintendo games — like all Nintendo consoles, the Switch has an incredibly high proportion of must-play exclusives you can’t get anywhere else. But we’ve tried to include a few more left-field picks, too.
Our latest update added Pikmin 4, Octopath Traveler 2, and Balatro.
