Gamescom Opening Night Live 2026 just ended, and Nintendo Switch 2 quietly came away with one of the event’s most interesting third-party lineups.
I break down The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt — Remastered, Final Fantasy VII Revelation, 1001 Threads of Mizan, Stage Tour, Turok Origins, and the rest of the Switch 2 announcements—and why the larger story is how quickly Nintendo’s new hardware is starting to look like a current-gen platform rather than a side version.

Hell yea 🔥 I bought Witcher 3 on launch day for Switch, but it honestly made my eyes bleed. Can't wait to finally experience this game!!
Still no word of an Expedition 33?
Naah GTA VI stole gamescom
Sadly Turok seems generic
"Better horse handling (whatever that means)"
Roach would do such charming things as come to a complete stop when she set foot on a bridge, even when in the middle of a horserace. The horse pathing was terrible.
They announced all prices for Stage Tour the day of. $129 for game and guitar bundle
It really is awesome, but also this video is a simplification of the Witcher announcement. The remaster is not a Switch 2 specific version and it is free not only on this platform for the owners of the base game. I have a Switch 2 and kept the Switch 1 after getting the successor, and these two are my only systems, so I'm totally on the N side now. But it doesn't mean that I can get over these suggestive statements. Yesterday I bought the Switch 1 version of Witcher 3 Complete Edition on full price point, because I wanna support all publishers that handle gamers like CDPR. I also bought CP2077 as soon as it came out for the same reason. Many similar companies should be present in the video games scene.
This has been true since Cyberpunk 2077 came out.
Can’t wait to play Witcher! Still holding out for Doom upgrades but this was a welcome surprise
I don’t think the switch two will hit the same level of hype as the switch one did, but I do think them boosting the power and being able to have all these ports run pretty well on the switch to was a fantastic decision. I think a lot of people are realizing that the switch is just a fantastic way to play games and that’s why everybody, no pun intended, is switching to the system.
Yo bro I would love to play 1001 with you when it comes out
i already own the game on gog but if they put the remastered version fully on cart ill be buying it for the switch 2 100%
Wo Long Fallen Dynasty Complete Edition coming next week on switch 2 and the Stage Tour with guitar 130 dollars the whole guitar drum mic 300 dollars
i just bought a switch 1 physical witcher 3 because of the free update…lol insane!
switch 2 cannot match the ps5 and xbox x in graphics and framerate
switch 2 version will be substandered compared to the ps5 and xbox x dont kid yourself
this game got me to buy the ps4…. so this will push units for the switch 2 ….. it won't be on par… it will have all the features minus the graphics …it will look better than ps5 og version …
