A new report suggests that multiple Xbox and third-party titles are making their way to the newly-announced Nintendo Switch 2.
Following a ton of leaks, Nintendo officially revealed its highly anticipated Switch 2 console last week, and it’s quickly become one of the most talked-about consoles of 2025. With a sleek black design, a first-look trailer teasing a new Mario Kart, and backward compatibility for most Switch games, fans are already speculating about what the launch lineup might include.
From Nintendo classics to potential third-party surprises, there’s a lot riding on this console’s debut. Adding to the chatter is the question of how Nintendo plans to compete with the likes of the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X.
Now, a new leak suggests the Nintendo Switch 2’s game library could feature some unexpected heavy hitters from Microsoft and other developers.
Nintendo Switch 2 to get Major Xbox Titles, it’s Claimed
A well-known insider, eXtas1s, has shared new details about what might be in the works for the Nintendo Switch 2. eXtas1s, who has a track record of accurate information about Xbox and Microsoft, claims that several high-profile Xbox and Activision Blizzard games could be heading to Nintendo’s upcoming console.
This information comes from their latest YouTube video. According to new details, the rumored Nintendo Switch 2 titles include:
- Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024
- Halo: The Master Chief Collection (which could reportedly be sold at full price)
- Diablo 4, currently expected in 2025
- A Call of Duty game (possibly Black Ops 6, the 2025 installment, or Warzone)
- Fallout 4
- Starfield
But that’s not all. eXtas1s also mentioned that Tekken 8 (with DLC) and Elden Ring could make their way to the Switch 2.
This isn’t the first time Xbox games have been rumored to cross platforms. Recent reports hinted at titles like Hellblade 2 and Halo: The Master Chief Collection launching on PlayStation 5 in 2025. This suggests Microsoft’s strategy is shifting toward making its games accessible across a wider range of devices, possibly focusing more on software sales and subscriptions than hardware exclusivity.
It’s important to note that these claims are unverified, and we suggest taking everything with a grain of salt until Nintendo or Microsoft confirms them. Still, the idea of the Switch 2 launching with such high-profile games adds to the excitement surrounding the console’s potential and what it can handle.
As for the hardware itself, the Switch 2 is rumored to pack some serious power. Early reports suggest a performance level beyond what the Steam Deck offers, which could make it a standout device for both handheld and docked gaming.
